Cardi B Reacts To Akuapem Poloo Conviction

Controversial US rapper, Belcalis Almanzar, popularly known as Cardi B, has reacted to the 90-day jail term handed to Ghanaian actress, Rosemond Alade Brown, also known as Akuapem Poloo, for posing nude in a photoshoot with her son.

Recall that the actress was convicted by the Accra Circuit Court for the publication of a nude picture with her seven-year-old son in June, last year.

In a tweet she shared, Cardi B said that she has seen similar photoshoots in the United States, and giving Akuapem Poloo jail term is a harsh judgment. She opined that social media probation or community service would have been a better option. 

I seen a lot of Americans do photoshoots like that .Even tho is not my style I don’t think she was going for sexual more going the natural idea.I think jail is a bit harsh .Maybe social media probation or community service. https://t.co/ncdwvggvFK

AllNews reports that Akuapem Poloo stirred reactions on the social media community on June 30, 2020, after posing nude with her son to mark his birthday.

In the picture, she posed nude while squatting, with her son standing right in front of her with underwear.

Justifying her action in the caption, she wrote “I’m naked in front of you because this is how naked I was giving birth to you, so in case you find me naked lying somewhere don’t pass by me but rather see me as your mom who brought you to life. Happy birthday to you @sonof_poloo”
