Fiifi, a Ghanaian living in Reading, UK, shared his experience during an interview with DJ Nyaami on SVTV Africa’s Daily Hustle Worldwide. He recounted how a brief encounter with a schoolgirl nearly got him into serious trouble with the police.
According to Fiifi, he first saw the girl while traveling on a Coach Coach bus. He later met her again on the pavement, where he casually asked how she was doing. She introduced herself, and that was the end of their interaction — or so he thought.
About two to three months later, Fiifi was shocked when police approached him. They had reviewed CCTV footage of him speaking to the girl and claimed she had reported the encounter to her mother. Fiifi was surprised to learn that the girl’s mother had secretly taken a photo of him and apparently suspected him of stalking.
Police later visited him and asked for identification. Shortly after, a letter arrived summoning him to the station. Fiifi sought legal counsel, and during the police interview, everything was recorded. They questioned him extensively, but he maintained that he never intended to propose to the girl — he was only being polite.
Eventually, after three weeks, Fiifi received a letter from his lawyer confirming that the case had been discharged. He emphasized that the girl was much taller and appeared older than she actually was, but she was still a teenager.
“If I didn’t have my documents, I don’t know what would’ve happened,” he reflected. “Many young men abroad have faced similar issues — some even get into trouble because their girlfriends lie and report them to the authorities.”
Fiifi recounted a story of a friend who was falsely accused of abusing women by a girl he was dating and ended up on a police wanted list. He stressed how different things are in the UK compared to Ghana, especially when it comes to approaching women.
“The girl is beautiful, but I’ve seen more beautiful black women,” he added. “It’s not just about age — any woman can bring you trouble. I’m single and just looking for a humble, good-hearted woman.”
Fiifi moved to the UK in 2022 and advised Ghanaians planning to migrate to be cautious. “If you don’t have children, there’s less pressure. But family and friends often expect financial support. Life here is not easy,” he warned.
He concluded by urging newcomers to the UK to use their brains, prepare their mindset, and focus on securing legal documents rather than rushing to have children. “When you get here, reality will teach you,” he said.
