Dr Hanna Louisa Bisiw-Kotei, the women's organiser of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC), has opened up about how she met her husband.

Sharing her testimony in a video recording with Pastor Jerry Eze, the founder and lead pastor of Streams of Joy International, Dr Hanna stated that she was a 50-year-old single mother of two when she met her current husband.

According to her, she had almost given up on marriage because of her age and busy schedule as a politician in Ghana until God came through for her with a husband.

Dr Hanna, who was recently appointed as the administrator of the Minerals Development Fund (MDF) by President John Mahama, disclosed that she was going through her mobile phone sometime in August 2022 when she came across a link to Pastor Eze's video.

She said that towards the end of the video, the man of God directed his listeners and followers to pen down their 'settlement notes', listing all their prayer requests to God.

Following through with the spiritual directive, she said she requested marital settlement as part of the list of many things she wrote down.

A few years after that, Dr Hanna disclosed that she met a US Navy commander who expressed interest in marrying her.

"I took a pen and paper, and when it got to marital settlement, I gave God dates. I wrote that if this man is for me, God, on this date, November 3, this is what I want to see. I want the marriage process to start before my next birthday. Then I took another paper and wrote the character of the man I want. I love Nigerian movies a lot, and that's where you see movie husbands - most perfect - and I wrote that character. The truth is that it didn't matter if such men exist.

"Lo and behold, November 3 happened. November 2022, it happened. The family came to see my family, and the whole process started. I visited the United States for holidays, we had started the first part of the tradition, and now it was formal," she added.

While relying on God for guidance is a good thing, Apostle Eric Okai, a senior pastor and counsellor, stated in an interview with YEN.com.gh that choosing a life partner solely depends the individual.

"Many Ghanaians used to rely on spirituality in their relationships. However this practice has declined over the years. Choosing a life partner depends on you the individual and not God . It is after choosing , one present her to God for His blessing on the other hand faith plays a key role in choosing life partner," he said.
