Lady Who Was Slapped By A Bouncer At Kona Cafe And Grill Shares Sad Story

The bouncer who for sure not fit to work in a public place slapped the female customer repeatedly out of his so called anger and misunderstanding.

Here is a narration of the incident which took place at the kona cafe and Grill in osu Accra Ghana.

The victim identified as Asantewaa shares her story;

“I was at Kona with my friends today and a bouncer called BB came to the table my friends and I are sitting on, called one of the guys on our table and asked him to ask us to leave because we’ve bought nothing and there are other customers with money who want to buy from there, meanwhile my friends and I have bought a lots of drinks already and we were waiting for another friend to join us but since the waitress had off loaded our table already and we had just 2 disposable cups on it he felt we are the best people they should sack.

So I questioned my friend the bouncer talked to, and he disclosed the info to me. So I stood up, went to the waitress and asked her to please give us our receipt and go and tell the bouncer we’ve bought drinks already. And I came back to sit down and the bouncer was still with my friend telling him to leave. So I started talking to my other friends, telling them this is so embrassing, then the bouncer speaks to me and ask me to keep quiet cos he’s not talking to me.

So I got mad and although I wanted to retaliate, my friends kept me calm and we had to go see their manager but their manager responded saying what should she do about it, the incident has already occurred and we should just let it go. But someone needs to take care of my eyes which is now very red. So I went to the police station and I have to go to the hospital tomorrow.”

This incident occurred on Friday, August 18th, 2017 , The victim  has reported the incident to the Osu police station and has had a medical check up and report because her eyes were swollen and hurt from the slap.
