“TV3 Talented Kids Judge ACCUSED of Touching Student Inappropriately—School Finally Breaks Silence 😱📢”
In a development that’s rapidly escalating into one of the biggest entertainment scandals of the year, TV3 Talented Kids judge Benedict is under fire after a parent publicly alleged that he “pressed” or inappropriately touched their child during a school interaction.
The accusation has gone viral across Facebook, X (formerly Twitter), and TikTok, with social media erupting in fury over the shocking claim.
The alleged incident reportedly took place at a private school in Accra where Benedict was said to be invited for a mentorship or talent development session with the students.
The parent, whose identity has not been revealed for privacy reasons, made the claim via a detailed Facebook post, alleging that their daughter came home visibly distressed and confessed that Benedict “touched her in a way that made her uncomfortable.
” The post reads in part: “I am not afraid of who he is.
My child deserves to feel safe.
No fame can cover this up.
” The post was accompanied by screenshots of alleged conversations with other parents suggesting similar discomfort with the judge’s behavior on campus.
As the allegation spread like wildfire, the school in question was quickly thrust into the spotlight.
Within 48 hours of public outcry and media pressure, the administration issued a statement.
But instead of clarifying the situation, the school’s carefully worded reply has raised eyebrows.
“We are aware of the concerns raised on social media involving a recent visitor to our campus,” the statement begins.
“We take the safety and emotional well-being of our students very seriously and have launched an internal inquiry into the matter.
” Nowhere in the statement was Benedict mentioned by name, nor did the school confirm whether any action—disciplinary or legal—had been taken.
The school also stated that parents were being “reassured privately” and encouraged not to spread “unverified information.
” That line in particular has sparked backlash, with many accusing the school of attempting to suppress the issue rather than face it transparently.
“This is not about rumors.
It’s about a child who says she was touched without consent,” one concerned parent commented on the school’s Facebook page.
“You can’t ‘PR’ your way out of this.
TV3, which airs the wildly popular Talented Kids program, has yet to make an official statement on the situation.
But internal sources tell us that Benedict has been temporarily suspended from upcoming show recordings pending further investigation.
A staffer who spoke under anonymity revealed, “Management is in panic mode.
They’re afraid of reputational damage, especially since the show is family-focused.
Meanwhile, Benedict himself has remained completely silent on the matter.
His social media pages have gone inactive since the allegations emerged, and attempts by reporters to reach him for comment have been unsuccessful.
Legal experts say that while the accusations remain unproven, the nature of the claims is serious enough to warrant an official police investigation, something that is notably absent from the school’s vague response.
Activists and child rights organizations are also entering the fray, demanding full transparency and protection for any students who may come forward.
“This is not just about one child or one celebrity,” a spokesperson for the Ghana Child Protection Network said.
“It’s about the systems that either protect or silence victims.
We need to ensure there is no cover-up here.
On social media, the court of public opinion is in full session.
While some loyal fans of the show are urging caution and waiting for the facts, others are calling for Benedict’s immediate removal and a deeper audit into the show’s background screening processes.
“How do we know this hasn’t happened before?” one user tweeted.
“How many times are these so-called role models given free access to our children without supervision?”
The bigger concern now is how this could impact the long-standing reputation of TV3 Talented Kids, a program that has served as a launchpad for young Ghanaian stars for over a decade.
Parents who once proudly sent their children to auditions are now reportedly second-guessing their involvement, citing safety fears.
As it stands, the Ghana Police Service has not officially confirmed whether a criminal complaint has been filed, though a legal representative for the accuser’s family has hinted that they are exploring legal options if the school fails to act.
If police do step in, Benedict could face serious legal consequences, including charges related to inappropriate conduct with a minor.
This scandal is still developing, but one thing is certain: the combination of celebrity status, institutional silence, and child safety is a volatile mix—and the public is no longer willing to accept vague statements and behind-the-scenes apologies.
All eyes are now on TV3, the school administration, and—most importantly—on whether justice will be served.
Because if this accusation is proven true, then no judge’s chair, no celebrity status, and no PR spin will be enough to silence the storm that’s coming.
