Ghanaian media personality MzGee
Ghanaian media personality MzGee has taken a strong swipe at social media users who hide behind anonymous or ghost accounts to spew insults and negativity online.
Speaking during a passionate monologue on her Gee O’clock show, the broadcaster questioned the courage of trolls who lack the guts to confront people with their real identities.
“If you’re bold enough to go and insult people, come with your real face. Let’s see who we’re dealing with,” she stated. “Why do you go and create ghost accounts to talk trash? Me—who am I in the scheme of affairs—that you’d create a whole ghost account just to come and insult me?”
MzGee described the trend as both cowardly and toxic, highlighting how these faceless accounts often embolden others to join in online harassment.
She noted that many of these accounts bear fake names, untraceable handles, or cartoonish avatars—making it impossible to engage meaningfully or even determine the mental state of the people behind them.
“You can’t even tell whether you’re dealing with a brainy person or an idiot. And yet they want to dictate how you should behave on your own page,” she added.
The broadcaster’s remarks speak to a broader conversation around cyberbullying and the lack of accountability on social media.
While some fans encouraged her to ignore such comments and “be the bigger person,” MzGee insisted that trolls should not be allowed to operate unchecked. She urged critics to own their comments and identities if they truly believe in what they post.
“If you want to do drama, let’s do drama face-to-face. Don’t hide. If you’re going to be disrespectful, be bold enough to come with your real name and picture.”
Her comments come after she was attacked on social media for sharing a video of herself in a joyous mood.
