“My husband didn’t defend me during my singathon backlash” – Afua Asantewaa laments

0

Ghanaian media personality and singathon sensation Afua Asantewaa Owusu Aduonum has stirred fresh controversy after making allegations against her husband shortly after confirming their separation.

The influencer recently disclosed during a TikTok Live session that she and her husband, Kofi Owusu Aduonum, are currently separated, emphasising that the decision was for a “good cause” and part of her personal healing process.

However, just hours after that revelation, Afua Asantewaa made further claims suggesting longstanding issues in their relationship.

Speaking during another TikTok Live session, she alleged that her husband had failed to support or defend her throughout their marriage.

According to her, despite his extensive experience as a journalist spanning over three decades, he never publicly stood up for her during moments of criticism or controversy.

Afua also referenced her widely publicised singathon attempt, claiming that her husband only appeared supportive during that period for public attention.

She suggested that his actions at the time were more about public perception than genuine support, a claim that has since sparked mixed reactions online.

Her remarks have generated debate on social media, with some users sympathising with her claims while others have criticised the public nature of the allegations, describing it as unnecessary given the sensitive nature of their separation.

Ghanaian media personality and influencer Afua Asantewaa Owusu Aduonum has further intensified speculation about her marriage following a series of suggestive social media posts.

In a recent video circulating online, Afua Asantewaa Singathon appeared to throw subtle jabs, hinting that Ghanaian men are “dangerous.”

The post comes shortly after she confirmed her separation from her husband, sparking widespread discussion about the state of her relationship.

With the timing of her earlier announcement falling close to April Fool’s Day, some social media users initially dismissed her claims of separation as a publicity stunt.

However, Afua has seemingly shut down those assumptions with a follow-up post aimed at doubters.

In another video, she was seen passionately singing along to Ghana Boys by Wendy Shay, a track that touches on themes of unfaithfulness and complicated relationships involving Ghanaian men.


Many observers have interpreted the choice of song as a subtle but pointed message about her personal experiences.

Remarks from Abeiku Santana, who also holds the position of Deputy Chief Executive Officer at the Ghana Tourism Authority, have reignited public discussion on gender roles and financial duties within relationships.

On Hitz FM during a recent on-air discussion, he anchored his perspective in scripture, suggesting that the expectation for men to provide is rooted in biblical history.

“If you read Genesis chapter one, after man disobeyed God, their punishment was that man would suffer,” he said.

He further argued that this financial arrangement is tied to peace in relationships, claiming that provision brings stability for men.

“When you give a woman, you would have your peace of mind,” Abeiku Santana further stated.

A conversation about love and money has been reignited after DKB shared his unfiltered thoughts on men’s financial roles in relationships.

Speaking on Hitz FM, the comedian dismissed the idea of men depending on their partners for financial support, framing it as a break from what he considers the norm.

“Women are not supposed to be the ones financing. Which man would want to allow a woman to take care of him?” he asked.

Taking his argument further, he said men who rely on women financially should be ready to take on domestic responsibilities in return.

“If you’re a man and a woman is taking care of you, you shut up. You clean the house, wash clothes, and put food in order because you’re playing the wife’s role.”

He insisted that, from his perspective, men are still expected to be providers, pointing to what he described as a widely held belief among women about how money is shared in relationships.

“You have to give a woman money because women’s philosophy is your money is your money is our money and my money is my money,” the outspoken comedian stated.

Recall that in July 2025, after Afua shared a video on social media that left many followers puzzled.

In the clip, she featured a tall, well-built young man dressed in trendy gym attire, describing him as her “ideal man.”

Addressing the rumours for the first time, Afua Asantewaa clarified her marital status during a TikTok Live session with Prophet Fire Oja on Tuesday, March 31, 2026.

“I am not divorced. We are separated for a good cause, and I am gradually healing. It is not a big deal,” she said.

Afua indicated that the separation occurred after her move to Canada, though she did not go into details about the specific reasons behind their decision.

She emphasised that the situation is part of a personal healing journey, suggesting a focus on emotional recovery and self-reflection.

Florence Obinim has challenged the caution often expressed in some gospel quarters about teaming up with secular artistes, making it clear she does not share those concerns.

During a recent interview on JoyPrime, the gospel singer said cross-genre collaborations are not something she has actively pursued. Still, she singled out one artiste she would be willing to work with if the moment ever presented itself.

“I haven’t planned for that, and it’s not something on my radar, but if I had to choose one person, I would go with Shatta Wale. If given the chance, I would love to collaborate with him,” she said.

Florence explained that her interest in Shatta Wale is driven more by his personality and actions than his music. She pointed to his relationship with his fans and his charitable gestures as qualities that stand out to her.

“I admire Shatta Wale for how he encourages his fans to pray and for his generosity toward the needy. Those qualities have made me like him from his early days,” she said.

Her comments land at a time when the gospel industry continues to wrestle with the idea of partnering with secular acts, with critics often questioning whether such moves align with the core mission of gospel music. Florence, however, believes the conversation should centre on personal accountability rather than blanket judgment.

“I’m very open to working with him if he reaches out, because at the end of the day, we’re all human. No one has the right to judge anyone; on judgment day, he will be judged for his actions, and I will be judged for mine,” Florence Obinim stated.

Lydia Forson Emotionally Speaks Out About Online Trolls & The Anonymous Page Which Used To Mock Her

0

Award-winning Ghanaian actress Lydia Forson has revealed the emotional toll of enduring years of targeted online harassment, disclosing that some of the individuals behind the attacks were not strangers but people she personally knew.

Speaking in an interview with media personality Kafui Dey, the outspoken actress described her experience as a lonely battle against coordinated efforts aimed at tarnishing her image and credibility.

Forson explained that unlike many public figures who choose to ignore online trolls, she often confronted her critics head-on. According to her, this decision was driven by the fact that many of the attacks were deliberate, traceable, and in some cases, orchestrated by bloggers and individuals within her own circles.

“There are bloggers who would attack you, and I knew them personally. These are people I know… and I would confront them,” she revealed.

Despite identifying some of the perpetrators, Forson noted that she has refrained from publicly exposing them, choosing instead to leave matters to karma.

The actress also recounted instances of mockery that targeted her appearance. She disclosed that an anonymous social media page repeatedly sent her “Happy Father’s Day” messages as a way of ridiculing her looks. In addition, she criticized certain bloggers for using derogatory language when describing her natural hair.

“Some bloggers will post my picture with me in natural hair and caption it ‘Lydia Forson rocks messy hairdo’. Why would you call black hair messy? That’s derogatory,” she said.

Forson further suggested that some of the hostility she faced stemmed from her refusal to entertain unwanted advances or compromise her personal values, adding another layer to the challenges she has encountered in the public eye.

Known for her roles in films such as Adam’s Apple, the actress described navigating the entertainment industry as being akin to a “lone ranger,” operating in an environment where public perception often swings between extremes, leaving little room for nuance.

Her revelations have reignited conversations about cyberbullying, accountability among bloggers, and the psychological impact of sustained online abuse, particularly for women in the spotlight.

Esther Smith Opens Up On Painful Divorce, Warns Women Against Rushing Into Marriage

0

Ghanaian gospel musician, Esther Smith, has opened up about her failed marriage by sharing a deeply personal reflection while cautioning women against succumbing to pressure to marry.

Speaking in a candid interview with Delay, the singer described her past relationship as a difficult chapter that significantly impacted her life and career.

Esther Smith used the platform to advise women to make independent decisions about marriage, stressing that societal expectations should not dictate such a major life choice.

“Don’t let anybody put pressure on you to marry. As a senior sister, that’s my advice to you,” she stated.

The gospel artist was previously married to Rev. Ahinkan Bonsu in the mid-2000s. However, the union lasted only about four years and ended in a highly publicised divorce between 2008 and 2010.

Reflecting on that period, Esther Smith revealed that her marriage coincided with a critical phase in her music career, particularly after the success of her debut hit song Ma Won Nsan.

According to her, things began to fall apart shortly after she entered into marriage.

“After Ma Won Nsan, marriage came into the picture… I began to sink. It was a very hard time,” she recalled.

She admitted that the challenges she faced in the marriage affected her focus and direction, stating that her vision became “dimmed” during that period.

The breakdown of the marriage became a public issue in 2008 when reports emerged that the singer had travelled to Europe for a music engagement while pregnant.

Her then-husband reportedly accused her of relocating to Germany, where she gave birth and held the child’s outdooring ceremony without his knowledge—claims that fueled media attention at the time.

Now, years after the ordeal, Esther Smith says the experience has shaped her perspective on relationships and personal growth.

She encouraged women to prioritise their well-being and happiness, even if it means remaining single.

“Even if you’re not married, you can adopt a child. Don’t marry for someone to play with your heart,” she advised.

Her remarks have since sparked conversations online, with many praising her honesty while others reflect on the pressures women face regarding marriage in society.

Shatta Wale Criticizes Black Stars, Calls For Dede Ayew’s Return

0

Shatta Wale has joined the conversation around the Black Stars. He expressed concerns after their recent performances failed to impress.

Speaking during a TikTok live session, the Shatta Movement boss used the moment to air his frustrations and outline what he believes should change ahead of the next major assignment.

A key part of his argument centres on squad selection. He is urging the Ghana Football Association to recall former captain Dede Ayew for the World Cup, insisting the forward’s influence is still needed within the team setup. According to him, pairing Ayew with his brother Jordan Ayew could help stabilise the side and boost morale on the pitch.

He pointed to the chemistry between the two brothers as something the current team lacks, suggesting their connection could inspire better performances from the rest of the squad.

“They have to include Dede Ayew in the World Cup team. We are pleading, it’s not by force, but we are begging that he should be part of the team. We are kneeling… so he can support Jordan because of their strong connection. When they are on the pitch, they uplift the entire team. I am very devastated about all this,” he said.

Shatta Wale did not stop there. He turned his attention to the team’s overall mentality, questioning whether the Black Stars are still driven by the hunger to win at the highest level.

“Black Stars, let me ask you something: do you want to compete for the World Cup or something else? If it’s something else, I would understand because it seems we are not used to winning trophies. Maybe they should create a ‘World Bottle’ for you to compete in. Don’t you drink water at all, or do you want a ‘World Spoon’?” Shatta Wale further stated.

After Otto Addo’s Exit, Sonnie Badu Makes Strong Case For Kwesi Appiah’s Comeback

0

Back-to-back friendly losses have intensified scrutiny on the Black Stars, with gospel musician Sonnie Badu offering his thoughts on the team’s struggles and the road ahead.

Following Ghana’s 2:1 defeat to Germany on March 30, 2026, Badu reflected on Otto Addo’s tenure, saying the former head coach showed occasional promise but fell short of what is required at the senior national team level.

He suggested that Addo’s abilities could be more effective in youth football, where development outweighs the pressure of immediate results.

With the coaching position now open, Badu shifted focus to the urgent need for a replacement capable of stabilising the squad ahead of the 2026 World Cup, questioning who could step in without delay.

He named Kwesi Appiah, who is currently managing Sudan, as the most realistic option, arguing that his familiarity with the team gives him an advantage over any foreign coach who would need time to settle in.

“After last night’s match, I gained some hope in Otto, but I think the senior national team was too big a responsibility for him. Maybe he’d be a better fit for one of the junior national teams. Now, the question is, who can take over in such a short time?

“I think Kwesi Appiah would be the perfect choice. He knows all the players, has tons of experience, and can lead the team effectively. A foreign coach would need time, which we don’t have right now. We can’t risk having them lose and then say they didn’t have enough time with the players. Let’s get Kwesi Appiah, even if it’s just for the World Cup,” he wrote.

The Ghana Football Association officially confirmed Addo’s departure on March 31, 2026, ending his second spell in charge.

Otto Addo was dismissed after Ghana’s friendly defeats to Austria and Germany in the build-up to the World Cup.
