A young Ghanaian woman has got people talking after she opened up about her marital issues.

She said this came after she convinced him to sign divorce papers so he could marry another woman in his host country and gain the necessary documents, after which she could later join him.
Now feeling betrayed, Gifty said the husband's actions suggest the marriage is over. However, she wants compensation and full custody of their two children.
Quizzed by the host on how much she would deem appropriate, Gifty hesitantly responded, saying GH¢500,000.
The young lady, at one point, could not contain her tears as she narrated the support she had offered her husband over the years, only to be treated this way.
“I know the marriage is over, but I want him to compensate me and also allow me to have custody of our two children,” she told Auntie Naa.

Peeps react to the married woman’s ordeal
Social media users who took to the video's comment section shared varied opinions, with many demanding to hear the husband’s side.
@Hanapoo77-s6e stated:
“This Gifty vs George marriage issue is exactly like my brother’s. In the end, his wife filed for divorce at the Accra High Court after a marriage proposal from her married lover, making false allegations against him, in addition to GHS 200,000 as alimony. We are still in court, pending divorce... some women paaaa, hmm.”
@SammyTuga-j8v3s opined:
“Gradually, Auntie Naa is losing control over the programme. How can you allow your panellists to talk and shout at your guest anytime they want?”
@NkoneTV stated:
“Gifty, you have done all these and you are also demanding such an amount? Shame. Brotherhood is proud of George.”
@alhassansulemana3345 wrote:
“I wish Auntie Naa would deny this lady compensation because she doesn't deserve anything from this guy. Please, Auntie Naa, no second chance because she won't change. If this guy should consider her again and take her to America, she will let them deport himmark it.”
