Kasoa Old Market — A viral video from Kasoa Old Market is generating widespread attention on social media after a woman was reportedly confronted in connection with an alleged theft incident at the market.
The video, which has already attracted more than 850,000 views and continues to record strong engagement, has rapidly spread across Facebook and other social-media platforms.
GhanaMedia.net has independently verified the incident, with one of the platform’s anchor publishers, Enoch Ansong, present at the scene and among those who captured footage of the incident that has since gone viral online.
The development has triggered intense reactions from social-media users, with many seeking clarity on exactly what happened and what action was taken following the incident.
What Happened At Kasoa Old Market?
According to information gathered by GhanaMedia.net, the incident occurred at Kasoa Old Market, where the woman was reportedly confronted following allegations of theft.
The woman seen in the viral footage was reportedly wearing a red outfit, while earlier footage circulating online showed her wearing a nose mask.
The circumstances surrounding the incident have attracted particular attention because of the speed with which the footage spread online.
A separate social-media trail circulating in connection with Kasoa Old Market alleges that CCTV footage captured a woman wearing a nose mask entering a shop and allegedly taking GH¢80,000 kept in a black rubber bag while a shop attendant was distracted by another customer. That allegation has been widely reposted online.
GhanaMedia.net is treating the GH¢80,000 claim separately from the verified scene footage until the specific connection between the two developments is established through further evidence.
GhanaMedia.net Publisher Was At The Scene
The development has an important firsthand element.
Enoch Ansong, one of GhanaMedia.net’s anchor publishers, was at the scene and captured video footage that subsequently became part of the viral social-media circulation.
This gives GhanaMedia.net a direct eyewitness and original-footage connection to the incident, rather than relying solely on material reposted by third-party social-media accounts.

Video Draws Massive Engagement
At the time of publication, the Facebook video had surpassed 850,000 views, with engagement continuing to rise.
The rate at which the footage is being shared and discussed suggests that the video could cross the one-million-view mark, making the incident one of the more heavily engaged Kasoa-related stories currently circulating on social media.
The footage has prompted questions about the circumstances leading to the confrontation, the identity of the woman involved, whether an official complaint was made and whether police intervention followed.
Kasoa Old Market And Security Concerns
Kasoa Old Market has previously featured in reports and research concerning criminal activity in the wider Kasoa area. A University of Education, Winneba study identified the Old Market among locations in Kasoa where crimes including stealing/theft, assault and fraud have been reported.
Police have also previously conducted intelligence-led operations in Kasoa Old Market and adjoining communities. In December 2025, the Central East Regional Police Command said an operation in Kasoa Old Market and surrounding areas resulted in the arrest of 33 suspects and the seizure of various items.
However, those previous developments are not evidence that the current woman was involved in any earlier offence.
GhanaMedia.net Continuing Verification
GhanaMedia.net is continuing to follow the development and is seeking additional information concerning what happened after the woman was confronted, including any police action and the precise circumstances surrounding the allegations.
For now, the verified element is the Kasoa Old Market incident captured on video and witnessed by GhanaMedia.net publisher Enoch Ansong, while claims circulating online about the alleged GH¢80,000 theft remain subject to further confirmation regarding their connection to the woman in the viral footage.
As the video continues to attract hundreds of thousands of views, GhanaMedia.net will update this report as additional verified information becomes available.
