In a Facebook post, the woman recounted how Kwaku justified his actions by claiming their marriage was invalid. He told people that he had thumbprinted, instead of signing, their marriage certificate, a move she believes was a calculated attempt to invalidate their union.
Though a thumbprint does not nullify a marriage legally, she now believes his intentions were never sincere from the beginning.
Kwaku also claimed the Catholic Church where they had their wedding was not gazetted, a false assertion, according to the woman.
Kwaku's new wife is reportedly a former classmate of the aggrieved woman, and they had been secretly involved for three years. Throughout the marriage, the aggrieved woman supported Kwaku financially, including paying his medical bills, unaware of his infidelity.
The situation has left her feeling betrayed as she waits for the legal divorce to be finalised.
