Hajia4Real Scheduled for Release from U.S. Prison on May 22, Plans Return to Ghana
After nearly a year behind bars in the United States, Ghanaian entertainer and influencer Hajia4Real is expected to walk free today, May 22, 2025.
Her prison term—one year and one day—was handed down after she admitted to being part of a scheme that scammed victims out of millions through fake romantic relationships. The sentence length wasn’t random; the added day made her eligible for early release due to good behavior.
Rather than face immigration detention, Hajia4Real has been granted permission by a U.S. court to voluntarily return to Ghana. This arrangement spares her the usual process handled by U.S. immigration authorities and clears the way for a smooth departure. However, her re-entry into Ghanaian public life is likely to stir conversations, especially given the high-profile nature of her case.
Once celebrated for her lavish lifestyle and music ventures, Hajia4Real’s image took a major hit following her extradition from the UK and subsequent guilty plea. She has since agreed to surrender assets tied to the fraudulent operation.
