Following her release from prison, Ghanaian singer and socialite, Mona Faiz Montrage, better known online as Hajia4Reall, has announced her comeback with a new song titled “We Move”.
This release is her first public appearance since she returned to Ghana after serving a year in prison in the United States.
The music video of her new song was published on her social media channels, sending a message of her comeback.
The first scene of the music video begins with a dramatic scene of Hajia4Reall in a prison cell, a clear indication of acknowledgement of her legal past.
The song continues with a lyric “If I fall, I go rise,” a theme which encapsulates the notion of resiliency and new beginnings.
Her new single, ‘We Move’, conveys tenacity and the determination to keep going in spite of obstacles in life.
It represents a fresh chapter in Hajia4Reall’s life and a determination to not let her past dictate her present or future.
The public figure, known for her substantial Instagram following, was extradited from the United Kingdom to the United States in May 2023.
Montrage’s incarceration stems from her involvement with a West Africa-based criminal enterprise that engaged in romance scams and internet fraud, defrauding vulnerable, older Americans of over $2 million.
Prosecutors revealed that she personally received funds from approximately forty victims, deposited into U.S.-based bank accounts under false pretenses, including elaborate schemes involving fake gold transport payments and fictitious FBI investigations.
She subsequently pleaded guilty in February 2024 and was formally sentenced on June 28, 2024, by U.S. District Judge J. Paul Oetken.
In addition to her prison term, Montrage was sentenced to three years of supervised release and ordered to forfeit $216,475 while paying restitution of $1,387,458.
