The true identity and nationality of the foreigner widely recognized as the 'Russian man' in viral explicit videos is now uncertain. The Russian government has stated that the individual's name is not Russian, and his widely circulated online alias, Yaytseslav, is a vulgar expression in Russian, not a legitimate name.

• The Russian Ambassador Sergei Berdnikov could not confirm the man's nationality after being summoned by the Ghanaian government.
• The Russian authorities were already aware of the individual’s activities and are conducting investigations.
• The Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI) in Kenya is investigating the circulation of intimate content involving Kenyan women, urging victims and witnesses to come forward confidentially.
