Eugene Ashie aka Wisa, a hiplife artiste, on Thursday told an Accra Circuit Court that he did not show his fake penis to the Police when he was invited by them.

Answering questions under cross-examination by Prosecution led by Chief Inspector Judith Asante, Wisa said he also did not tell the Police that he had “something” apart from his penis.

He was answering questions in the case in which he has been accused displaying his manhood during a performance on December 25, 2015 dubbed ”Decemba to Rememba”.

[contextly_sidebar id=”DDGxDjZmULg3KHDBP37t9hI5ZnRKxZ42″]Wisa disagreed with prosecution that the tendering of the fake penis by him was an afterthought and an attempt to throw dust into the court’s eyes.

When asked to explain to the court what the fake penis was, Wisa said; “This was the actual thing I used on the said night”.

Wisa said the perception he had before accepting to perform was to entertain the audience.

The Hip Life artiste said he could not provide evidence of him wearing the fake penis before getting on to the stage.

He admitted that his action of achieving his popularity constituted gross indecency.

Wisa further admitted that due to his actions on the day of the incident he composed an apology song.

“I did the apology song due to the perception people had about me and the song was also to apologise to one Jessica of Citi FM, an Accra Based radio station and the Music Union of Ghana (MUSIGA).

Wisa of the ‘Ekikimi’ fame was arrested for allegedly exposing his penis while performing at the Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) on December 24, 2015.

He has, however, denied a charge of gross indecent exposure and is on a ¢8,000.00 bail with one surety.

On December 25, 2015, the Accra Regional Police was alerted over a video posted on the Internet from an unknown source, in which Wisa intentionally exposed his penis, while performing live on stage.

According to the Prosecution Detective Inspector Judith B. Asante said the Police contacted the managers of Artiste to produce him at the Regional Police Headquarters for investigations, which they did.

The prosecution said investigations into the matter disclosed that on December 24, Airtel Communications Company and Citi FM, an Accra-based radio station, organised an event dubbed: ‘Decemba 2 Rememba’ which included the accused as a guest artiste.

In the course of the show, the accused, while dancing with a female dancer identified as Monica Kumadeh, suddenly removed his penis out of his pair of jeans and began to caress the buttocks of the dancer.

The matter has been adjourned to March 21 for Wisa to produce his witness in court.

An Accra Circuit Court on Monday ordered Eugene Ashie aka Wisa, a hip-life artiste accused of displaying his manhood on stage during a performance to open his defense.

The Court Presided over by Mrs. Abena Oppong Adjin-Doku, in her ruling on a submission of no case held that, Wisa has a case to answer, “I therefore dismiss the submission of no case”.

The court has subsequently adjourned the case to February 5, and asked the accused to inform his lawyer, Jerry Avernogbor, who was absent during the sitting to be in court at the adjourned date to lead his client open his defense.

[contextly_sidebar id=”WJp0sFpVDT7bMAq8MUkAKZ4kVdzBtiGb”]The Court noted that, Wisa was able to identify himself a video recording tendered in court, but claimed that he used a doddle.

The Defense Counsel had filed a submission of no case at Court because prosecution after calling three witnesses failed to establish a case against his client.

According to Defense Counsel, the Prosecutor’s case was based on “hear say,” adding none of the witnesses saw the incident.

Defense Counsel further argued that, even the one who claimed he saw the accused could not be traced.

Wisa of the Ekikimi fame, was arrested for allegedly exposing his penis while performing at the Accra International Conference Centre on December 24, 2015.

He has however denied a charge of gross indecent exposure and is on a GH¢8,000.00 bail with one surety.

According to GNA files, on December 25, 2015, the Accra Regional Police was alerted over a nude video posted on the Internet from an unknown source, in which Wisa intentionally exposed his penis, while performing live on stage.

According to the Prosecutor, Detective Inspector Judith B. Asante, the Police contacted the managers of the Artiste to produce him at the Regional Police Headquarters for investigations, which they did.

The prosecution said investigations into the matter disclosed that on December 24, Airtel Communications Company and Citi FM, an Accra-based radio station, organised an event dubbed: “December to Remember,” which included the accused as a guest artiste.

Musician, Eugene Ashe, also known as Wisa Greid, has further delayed the hearing of his ongoing case after failing again to appear in court today [Monday].

Wisa, who is facing a charge of indecent exposure according to his lawyer, is out of the jurisdiction hence his unavailability in court.

[contextly_sidebar id=”QZgSLyRb790UQsSgM4czzmtVZQuxL402″]The embattled musician of ‘Ekikimi’ fame, was arraigned over a year ago after allegedly exposing his penis during his performance at Citi FM’s December to Remember concert in 2015.

He has however denied the charge, and is currently on a GHc 8,000.00 bail with one surety.

The case since the beginning of its hearing, has encountered a number of incidents including the disappearance of Wisa for close to a month, and the unavailability of the prosecutor, leading to unnecessary delays in the matter.

The judge, Abena Oppong Adjin Doku, who has had cause to vent her unhappiness about events causing delays in the case, adjourned the suit to April 12, 2017 for hearing to continue.

[contextly_sidebar id=”15qT9Vp6CARKayIkjp7Ub4VauyLnEUwq”]Inspector Judith Asante, the prosecutor, informed the Court that his investigator had gone to the office of the witness to bring him to Court, but he had not returned at the time the case was called.

Inspector Asante, therefore, prayed the Court for an adjournment.

[contextly_sidebar id=”omj4w0Yqv3rF8ky5FFIcKdzf0UaInqzQ”]The Court, presided over by Mrs Abena Oppong Adjin-Doku, however gave the Prosecution the last opportunity to produce their witness, otherwise the Court would be compelled to close the case.
