According to an aspect of a purported official court document shared by the Ghanaian blogger Clement Nana Asamoah of Gossip24 TV, in the year 2002, the businessman and his wife, who had by then completed Senior High School and were believed to be in a relationship, decided to further their education at the University.
According to the reputed report, Joana Quaye was at the time a trader at Makola, and Richard Nii Armah Quaye was assisting his mum at a bar shop.
The supposed document indicated that during their first year, they were faced with financial difficulties as they were paying their tuition by themselves.
However, the respondent (Richard Nii Armah Quaye) reportedly convinced the petitioner (Joana Quaye) to drop out of school, which she did, as stated by the document.
The wife took up two jobs at different restaurants where she worked as a cashier, saved her earnings, and they both opened a joint account. According to the court document, they invested it in an asset product operated by Data Bank LTD, which matured with the couple having about GH¢10,000 as of 2008.

Reactions to RNAQ and wife saga
Below are some social media comments compiled by YEN.com.gh after the new details emerged.
Afia Owusu wrote:
"Advice to my daughter: Never put your personal ambitions on hold for anyone. Focus on building yourself first before investing heavily in a man. Most Men’s preferences in women change as their financial circumstances improve. The version of a man who is struggling is not always the same as the one who succeeds. Support a man if you choose to, but never at the expense of your own growth, independence, and security."
Opoku wrote:
"If not for the divorce brouhaha, no one would have thought that the success story of one of the richest men in the country was coming from a true love and commitment of an innocent young lady... May we be inspired to be successful by our own story and not some so-called role models"
Sambar wrote:
"Brotherhood is not proud of this man's treatment of his queen. Brotherhood is about fairness. This woman has been solid from the start. She is not a gold digger. She is actually mine. Justice for Joana."
Afia Akyem wrote:
"As rich as he is and the support he is giving some people in Ghana, he can even do better than this for your children's mother and someone who can be attributed to your success."
