However, according to Auntie Naa, they found out that her husband had not died. They also realised she mentioned the wrong name when she came in.
Amina Issah said she was called Ama Sarpomaa, but the crew at Oyerepa found her actual name out.
According to Auntie Naa, Amina Issah lied that her husband had died in a car accident and that, as a single mother, she had saved GH¢10,000 entrusting, it to someone to buy a fufu machine, only for that person to disappear with the money.
She even went ahead and shared a picture of an innocent person, whose photo she took from his WhatsApp status, as the man who had supposedly absconded with her money.
It eventually came to light that she had fabricated the entire story to gain public sympathy, and that her husband was alive and well, not dead as she had claimed.
When questioned, Amina claimed her husband was alive. The mother of one explained that she was forced to lie because she took a loan from Bills Microcredit and was finding it difficult to repay it.
