Former Member of Parliament (MP) for Ejisu, John Kumah’s widow, Apostle Lilian Owusu, stirred controversy on social media on December 19, 2025, when news emerged that she had gotten married a year and nine months after her husband’s death.
Lilian Owusu married Samuel Aryeequaye at a private wedding ceremony held in Obuasi in the Ashanti Region.
The low-key event was attended by close family members, friends, and church associates as the General Overseer of Disciples of Christ Ministries entered a new chapter of her life.
John Kumah’s brother addresses widow’s marriage
After the news of Apostle Lilian Owusu’s marriage to Gideon Aryeequaye went viral, the late MP’s brother spoke out to address the issue.
In a video seen by YEN.com.gh on the TikTok page Koforidua Flowers on December 22, the late MP’s brother slammed the widow for getting remarried so soon after his death.
He said John Kumah was buried late in May 2024 after his death in March, so his widow officially began her widowhood period in June 2024.
Ministries' said culturally, a widow was supposed to mourn for a year, which ended in June 2025.
He argued that there was no way she met her new husband after June and had already decided to tie the knot in December, so he felt suspicious that she started dating at a time she was supposed to be mourning.
John Kumah’s brother also said that the politician met his wife when she had nothing and changed things around for her, encouraging her to further her education and funding the construction of an ultramodern church auditorium for her, located at Weija in Accra, to support her ministry.
Below is the TikTok video of John Kumah’s brother blasting his widow.
