Speaking with Ghanaian prophet Fire Oja, she said she and her husband had not officially divorced but had separated for undisclosed reasons, which she described as a ‘good cause’.

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

After her initial claim went viral, Afua Asantewaa’s husband reportedly spoke to Gh Page TV and denied that they were separated.

That appeared to trigger her as she went on social media and slammed her husband, sharing more details about their split and opening up about her grievances against him.

"My partner is an over-30-year-experienced journalist, but he has never come out to defend me before. But during the singathon, he was able to stand on camera and say he was proud of his wife,” Afua Asantewaa angrily said.
