Nana Pooley's Family Fights His Widow Over Children's Paternity: "He's Not Their Biological Father"

• The family of the deceased Kotoko fanatic, Nana Pooley, have come forward with allegations regarding the young man's children
• The women who spoke on behalf of Pooley's family claimed the late Kotoko diehard was not the children's biological father
• Netizens who saw the post were divided and expressed mixed reactions in the comments section

A 'family war' is gradually brewing in the household of the late Kumasi Asante Kotoko supporter, Nana Pooley, as his relatives have raised concerns about the paternity of his children.

They claim their deceased relative is not the biological father of four of his children. They emphasised that Nana Pooley has only two children.

Speaking in a now-viral video, two women who claimed to be relatives of the deceased Kotoko fanatic, alleged that Nana Pooley was involved with a woman from Ivory Coast, Ann, who had two kids with their brother.

Based on their account, the woman identified as Ann, however, passed away years ago after falling ill, leaving behind their kids, Abigail and Angel.

Following her demise, Nana Pooley married Gifty, who already had four kids at the time, and changed the names of her kids to bear Nana Pooley's surname.

Who is the true father of the kids?

The women alleged the father of the four kids is a man from the Volta Region, although they did not fully disclose his identity.

They claimed the alleged father of the kids raised concern about the change of his children's surname when Pooley was alive, but his concerns fell on deaf ears. This led to a misunderstanding between the biological father and Nana Pooley.

Otumfuo awards Pooley's children scholarships

Earlier this year, Otumfuo Osei Tutu II adopted the children of Nana Pooley. This was after the top Kotoko fan passed away at Nsuatre. Otumfuo has also awarded the children full scholarships.

The women who made the allegations on the children's paternity claim Gifty deliberately changed her children's surname so they could be heirs to Nana Pooley's properties.

"If they don't speak out, Pooley's wife can take all the money for her kids and leave Pooley's real children aside."
