Kwame Poku, a Ghanaian living in Australia, recently opened up about the unexpected events in his marriage, revealing that his ex-wife left for the UK without informing him and initiated divorce proceedings through her mother.

Kwame shared the challenges he faced, including a 50% reduction in his salary due to a change in his company's mode of operation. Despite the financial constraints, he continued to support his ex-wife and children.

The revelation came during an interview with DJ Nyaami on SVTV AFRICA, where Kwame said he was shocked when his ex-wife informed him of her arrival in London, citing the challenging circumstances.

Attempting to address the situation, Kwame indicated that he visited his ex-wife's mother, seeking guidance. However, he was told to focus on the children and forget about his wife.

Later, Kwame learned through a lawyer that his ex-wife's mother was filing for divorce on her behalf, a move she initially denied. According to him, his ex-wife had become jobless after the birth of their first child, and he had supported her financially, even setting up a business for her. However, she seemed unwilling to reciprocate the support during his financial crisis.

Kwame narrated his efforts to communicate with his ex-wife, who had not contacted him for two months, and her subsequent attempts to return, which he considered impossible. He explained that he had taken the advice of his ex-wife's mother, who had suggested he forget about his wife.

Marriages in Ghana are better than those abroad

Meanwhile, a Ghanaian in the UK also said marriages in Ghana are far better than those abroad, and he gave his reasons.

Albert Osei Tutu said most couples abroad divorce at the slightest provocation, compared to Ghana, where they'll at least try to solve their issues.

He gave an example where partners abroad do not see themselves often because of their work schedule, but in Ghana, couples are sure to see each other most nights.
