Captain Smart and Afia Pokua

Who is Afia Pokua husband? Is it Captain Smart or it is Murphy? Who is Captain Smart of Adom FM? Smart is Adom Fm host laden with controversies.

To put things to context, Afia was married to the late Murphy. However, Afia got married to Smart, a reality that Murphy was not ready to accept. Consequently, Murphy came out guns blazing levelling accusations against Captain for snatching his wife. Unfortunately, Murphy died while claiming foul play. This led many Ghanaians to blame Smart for Murphy’s death.

In his defence, Murphy claimed that he dumped Pokua before her husband’s death. He posted an explainer on her Facebook page. He said that he had been silent on the matter long enough. And it is through his silence that he was insulted, vilified, castigated and lambasted for his engagement to Afia.
