Rosemond Alade Brown as the actress is known in private life, was on April 16, 2021, jailed for publishing on social media a nude photo she took with her son on the occasion of his 7th birthday.
She pleaded guilty to all the charges but through her counsel, filed for an appeal on the basis that the ruling was harsh considering that she is a mother and first-time offender. Instead of a jail term, Poloo pleaded for a fine but her appeal was on December 1, 2021, dismissed.
“This court will not interfere and the appeal is therefore dismissed,” Justice Ruby Aryeetey who presided over the matter said in her ruling.
After the ruling, Akuapem Poloo made three separate posts.
First, she indicated her trust in God is inflexible and remains resilient in the face of adversity. That post came with a picture of herself and the son.
She later shared a photograph of her son with the caption: "Son, I love you and God is with you always, you know. Be good till mummy comes back, God is in control always.”
