This story was culled from Ghana Vibe:

Husband of an Accra-based popular fashion designer said his legally married wife has revealed that her ex-boyfriend is the father of their three children.

Ernest Kofi Essah, 33, disclosed this on Asempa FM ‘s programme, “Abrabo” hosted by Maame Akua. The couple, after six years of marriage, has three children: the first child is almost 5 years; the second, 3; and the third child is nineteen months old.

According to him, his wife, [name withheld], abandoned him for her ex-boyfriend the very day he confronted her on phone for staying out late. His action, Essah noted, did not go down well with the wife’s lover, who confronted him for daring to query her [wife] for visiting him [ex-lover].

Mr. Essah said he was shocked to hear from his wife’s lover that he has been seeing his wife ever since he returned from overseas, years ago. The fashion designer is said to be currently living with her lover, who is now claiming paternity of the three children.

The mother of the abandoned husband, who gave her name only as Eno Mary, also emotionally narrated on “Abrabo”, how she was not in support of her only surviving son’s marriage to the fashion designer.

According to Eno Mary, her son changed entirely towards her since he got married to the lady in question.

She said, she never heard of a quarrel between her son and her daughter-in-law until she was informed about this shameful incident.

She has therefore advised her son to let go his wife and move on with his life.

“Black is beautiful. Love the skin you are in. If you have bad rashes, deal with them through a doctor and his/her medical prescriptions. But please SAY NO TO BLEACHING!

Many otherwise pretty women today have weak skins on burnt faces, bosoms, arms, thighs and legs caused by the bleaching they denied they were doing in their youth.

As global warming makes our part of the world even hotter, and skins in tropical climes get darker to better protect us from the harsh rays of the sun, daughters of a proud black nation that spearheaded the independence revolution south of the unforgiving Sahara desert are getting quizzically lighter. Hmmmm.

Whilst bleaching remains off the radar in many educated & well-to-do African and Caribbean homes, it is saddening that the poor, illiterates in dire need of any passing act to imitate may just photocopy this needless practice of bleaching to the point where their elbows and knees will be nearly opposite in complexion to their cheeks and bosoms. Men, women, boys and girls are equally gullible as evidenced by some performers and their herd of sheep.

BLACK COMES IN MANY BEAUTIFUL SHADES AND HUES; FROM THE DEEPEST EBONY AND MAHOGANY TO THE RICHEST CHOCOLATE AND THE SOFTEST CARAMEL. FROM THE BEAUTIFUL AND DIGNIFIED LUPITA NYONG’O, THE DARK AND LOVELY INI EDO AND EMELIA BROBBEY THROUGH THE SWEET AND SEXY JACKIE APPIAH AND MARTHA ANKOMAH, THE CLASSY MRS BEYONCE CARTER, MRS AFUA AMOAH AMOFAH AND HALLE BERRY TO THE HAPPY JULIET IBRAHIM AND TRACEE ELLIS ROSS AND MANY MANY MORE POPULAR AND UNKNOWN.

It is possible to be born this way and to LOVE THE BLACK YOU ARE IN.

As for the drunk who refuses to heed the barman’s caution about another one for the road, he still has a homeward journey and the whole of tomorrow to contend with. Skin, like hips, dont lie. Ask the blessed Michael Jackson. Time will tell.”

A man and a woman who were having sex in a guest house in Sunyani were reported to have got stuck on Wednesday.

The Ghana News Agency (GNA) reported that the man could not remove his penis from the woman’s vagina and that it took the timely intervention of the police to whisk the inseparable lovers from the scene.

The incident was said to have happened at a guest house near the Nana Bosoma Market in Sunyani in the Brong Ahafo region.

An attendant at the guest house told the GNA that the two lovers booked the room for 30 minutes but when their time elapsed, they failed to come out.

He said he knocked at the door but heard some unusual sound from the room and informed some traders in the market.

“When we forced the door open we saw the unexpected as the two lovers were lying on the floor in torment,” the attendant said.

When the GNA got to the scene at 2;30pm, activities at the market had halted and people had gathered at the guest house.

The police moved in, put the two inseparable lovers in a vehicle and drove them away.

Some of the market women said the woman was a trader from Berekum who sells soap every market day.

Some of them suspected that a curse might have been placed either on the man or the woman and said rituals had to be performed before they could be separated.
