Following the crash, authorities requested a DNA test on Aboagye's daughter with Salami to aid in victim identification, a process complicated by family disputes.

Reports suggested that Aboagye's US-based wife resisted the test, with some alleging an affair with an Ashanti Region Member of Parliament (MP) before Aboagye's death.

This claim had fueled speculations and legal battles between Salami and Aboagye's relatives.

In reaction to the allegation, the social media user, Adu Twumasi, debunked it, while claiming that they were colleagues in high school.

According to him, he knows Salami as a woman of integrity.

"She was my mate in high school, this is false, Abigail Salami is a virtuous woman," he wrote.

His stance sparked a mix of support and scepticism online, with him doubling down on his position in a follow-up post.

He said:

"They're cooking ma. I still stand by what I said. She will be vindicated."

@NiiCarlito stated:

"This is so unfair to the lady. Everyone is saying she has run away because the person running the commentary on the video said so. We are too quick to judge even without verified information."

@early_move wrote:

"Senior, relax, we all can't confirm or deny all the allegations unless the result is out. I have had my lessons on defending people. Sometimes you think you know someone until you realise you had no idea of who and what you were defending. It's simple, she should just allow the DNA process to vindicate her.

@nhiikoteynhii commented"

"The baby even looks like the man. Mourning women shouldn’t be put through this stress."
