Amarah Kennedy has been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly sharing explicit images of two single mothers and demanding money in return for love-related costs.
SP Benjamin Hundeyin, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, confirmed Kennedy’s arrest in a text message, forwarded to Vanguard.
When questioned if Kennedy had been apprehended, Hundeyin simply responded, “Confirmed.”
Kennedy had reportedly disseminated explicit images of two single mothers with whom he had previous relationships. Just on Tuesday, Kennedy shared these explicit images with no less than 48 people.

In a related development, Kennedy has persisted in disseminating explicit images of two single mothers, Kester and Temi, whom he had previously dated.
In a disturbing turn, he has shared these pictures with members of Kester’s church and her late husband’s family.
Kennedy said, “By the time I am done, suicide will be her only option.”
According to Punch, Kennedy disseminated the explicit images to over 48 individuals just on Tuesday.
Both women, Kester and Temi, met Kennedy on separate social media groups for singles.
After arguments, Kennedy distributed intimate photos of the women, demanding money from them to delete the pictures. Despite their payments, he proceeded to circulate the images widely.
The aftermath has been severe for the victims. Kester, a widow and mother of two, has attempted suicide twice as a result of the ordeal.
Temi ended her relationship with Kennedy after discovering his uncommitted intentions, only to find herself harassed for money and threatened with further distribution of explicit photos.
Following the exposure of Kennedy’s actions, he threatened to further tarnish the women’s reputations for “spoiling my image”.
He continued sending explicit images to more family members and acquaintances of the women. Kester, despite her distress, has vowed not to end her own life, stating her children need her.
