In a video on X, Rev Ahenkan Bonsu said Esther Smith filed the suit in 2008, and the divorce was granted in that same year.
"She served me a letter and filed for divorce in court. I found out that we had three children in August 2008 during the court proceedings. She added it to her suit. The third child, I have never seen before."
The judge put all three children in Esther Smith's care since they were young. Rev Ahenkan Bonsu disclosed that their first child at the time was three years old.
"When the divorce was granted, the children were young; the oldest, Mighty, was three years old then. The judge gave custody of all the children to Esther Smith. However, Esther Smith was not in Ghana and had given power of attorney to her mother. Since Mighty was already with me, I continued to take care of the child."
According to Rev Ahenkan Bonsu, his ex-wife never followed up to find out about their firstborn, nor has he ever seen their last child before.
"From that time till Esther Smith has never asked after the child. I have even tried to get her to bond with her, but to no avail. I have not set eyes on my two other children. I left all the properties we acquired together for her, and she even sold the church."
Esther Smith's ex-wife said he lived in Abidjan with their first child, and he is now at a university there.
