On April 9, 2026, Edwin Gyimah dragged his sister and some family members to Auntie Naa's Oyerepa Afutuo show over a dispute that had persisted between them in recent years.
During the emotional interview, the 35-year-old ex-Orlando Pirates defender struggled to hold back tears as he described how his life had unravelled after his footballing career dwindled.
Gyimah alleged that spiritual attacks from family members had contributed to his sudden decline, insisting that the very people he trusted had taken everything from him.
The ex-Black Stars player, who was financially stable during his playing days, stated that he, his wife, and his children were now living in difficult conditions in Ghana.
Gyimah accused his family, especially his sister Felicia, of neglect and illegally taking over his eight-bedroom house while he and his close family remained homeless and financially unstable.
The ex-Black Stars also engaged in a heated exchange with his sister, whom Auntie Naa questioned about the allegations during the show.
On Wednesday, April 15, Gyimah accompanied Auntie Naa's team and police officers as they stormed his Obuasi house to evict his family.
