A young Ghanaian man living in Germany has shared a heartbreaking story of how his association with the wrong woman plunged his life into turmoil.

He said that despite coming from a broken home, he did not associate himself with the wrong company as a growing young man, and he always heeded his mother's advice.
According to him, his decision to travel to Germany in search of greener pastures was influenced by a recurring dream. He said he often saw himself walking in the skies whenever he dreamed, which he interpreted as a sign that he needed to travel abroad.
Life in Germany was good until he met what he described as the 'Delilah of his life'. He said he lived with her as a couple and provided everything to make life comfortable for her, only to be betrayed in the end.
Throwing more light on the betrayal, he explained that she lied about being pregnant and used it as leverage to siphon him of all his savings and accumulated wealth.
He further explained that she led him into self-destructive behaviours, an action he now regrets deeply. Amid tears, he confessed to being addicted and struggling to break free.
"She lied to me about being pregnant and used that to drain me of all my money, all my savings, and after that, she left me. She dumped me and ran away."

"She also taught me to take those substances. I stayed in Hauptbahnhof for 10 years, and I never touched that thing until she came into my life. And now I can't even quit it."
Kwabena Kingsley’s story adds to the many tragic accounts of travellers abroad who have lost their livelihoods after falling into the wrong company and engaging in self-destructive behaviour. \
