"Mohammed, you must settle me with GH¢500,000 and my children would not move out of the house we live in because I won't suffer for another person to come and enjoy. I will remain in the house with my children until I find another man who would marry me," she said.

In a video sighted by YEN.com.gh, the married woman said she was working at the time she met him but was allegedly asked to quit her job after they got married, with a promise to provide for her.

After agreeing to quit her job, the Ghanaian said her husband allegedly reneged on his promise. She proceeded to claim that the husband only gives her GH¢6 a day to cater for three kids.

The husband, known as Mohammed, however, denied the accusations, saying that he gave her GH¢500 per week.
