Hajia4Reall has finally confirmed rumours that she had a GPS tracking device strapped to her ankle during arrest in the UK.

Earlier, while refuting rumours of her arrest, Hajia4Reall’s camp also shot down claims that the socialite had a tracking device on.

However, Hajia, who is currently facing trial in the U.S has been compelled to finally spill the beans in her latest court statement.

In the quest to gain the court’s trust and convince them to meet some demands she made, she said,

“When I was in the UK, I used to go out from 6am in the morning to 6pm. They granted me that opportunity because I had a GPS tracker on my ankle which enabled them monitor my movements. I had the tracker on for 6 months in London and they realized I am not a bad person, because I did not try to escape,” parts of the statement read by Kofi Adoma Nwawanni.

Meanwhile, unlike the flexible bail conditions in the UK, she has been confined in her apartment in New Jersey by the U.S court.
