The pursuit of Joana Quaye, the wife of Ghanaian Richard Nii Armah Quaye (RNAQ), to get a GH₵50 million settlement in their divorce case ended in disappointment after a High Court in Accra rejected her demand on January 20, 2026.
She was awarded with just GH₵300,000, a one-third share of a house in Dansoman, and GH₵5,000 monthly for their three children.
According to reports, the duo had been married for 16 years and co-founded the company from which he built his fortune.
The whole divorce brouhaha sparked massive reactions on social media, with one concerned netizen jabbing Richard Nii Armah Quaye.
Meanwhile, Joana has filed a notice of appeal at the Court of Appeal Registry describing the January 20 ruling by Justice Kofi Dorgu as "a raw deal" that is "manifestly inadequate, inequitable and unfair."

Netizen blasts RNAQ over divorce settlement
In a post shared by Ghana Update on TikTok, a concerned netizen, who believed the court was not fair with its judgment, criticised Richard Nii Armah Quaye.
According to him, the luxurious bags the businessman has been buying for his rumoured girlfriend, Hajia4Reall online, are allegedly worth more than $100,000.
He argued that the GH¢300,000 settlement reward is not enough for a woman who gave him three kids.
“The luxurious bag alone you have been buying for Hajia4Reall koraa is more than $100,000, so that GH¢300,000 dierr, it is not enough for someone who gave you three children,” he said.

Ghanaians who came under the post also shared their thoughts. While some supported his argument, highlighting her contribution to Richard Nii Armah Quaye's success, others claimed the court ruling was the best.
Reactions to RNAQ’s ex-wife's divorce settlement
Below are some social media comments compiled by YEN.com.gh about Richard Nii Armah Quaye and his ex-wife’s divorce saga.
Maame Nyarko wrote:
“Women will start with a man from nothing, but he starts making his behaviour changes. The money is small. Most men who court marriage from the beginning don't have any property, so things like this will not come to mind for them.”
Sandra wrote:
“You were able to give out 1000 gold tablets to your fans. I hope you are not thinking of giving him that peanut. You'd better add some.”
Timothy wrote:
“I am sure that woman was the backbone of your success. Even if you give her half of your properties, you have done nothing. Women would suffer with you for you to make it in life, and when you are at the top, you think she is not your type.”
Raymond wrote:
“She didn’t contribute anything significantly to the wealth of the man; the laws have changed this idea of marrying a rich man and praying that, should divorce happen, you will be entitled to half of his property no longer exists.”
Ada wrote:
“So, because she’s a woman seeking divorce, you think she should be compensated hugely. Would you have said the same if it were the opposite? Why do most women think so? Everything should be about them. After receiving other packages, you still think she wasn’t treated fairly because the money she was requesting wasn’t approved. Hmm, marriage is not an investment. Most women think they are the only ones who have invested their time and emotions into the marriage. How about the man, too?”
