The reasons behind his brother’s divorce from his wife Gifty Gyan have been further clarified by Baffour Gyan, the brother of former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan.
Baffour Gyan indicated that Asamoah Gyan was the winner of the lawsuit in an interview with Asempa FM, despite what had been reported in the press.
He clarified that five years prior, Asamoah had filed for divorce from Gifty because she had previously been married but had married him nevertheless without telling him. Asamoah investigated the situation in court after learning of it, and it was discovered that Gifty had previously been married, necessitating the annulment of their union.
According to what Baffour said, the marriage had been dissolved as previously reported. In light of Ghanaian law, which prohibits a woman from being married to two men at the same time, the court determined that Gifty had been married when it rendered its decision today. Consequently, the court declared the marriage to be void and cancelled it.
Regarding the assets that were awarded to Gifty Gyan as part of the divorce settlement, Baffour disclosed that Gifty already had ownership of all of the properties because she was the original owner.
Regarding the houses, during Gifty and Asamoah’s relationship, he had already given Gifty’s name to the Spintex home he had purchased for the kids.
In Tema, Gifty also acquired a piece of land that will be used for a petrol station; the land was already registered in her name. And the Infiniti vehicle after that,” he clarified.
A GHC25,000 monthly allowance for the maintenance of the three children, exclusive of their school tuition, medical and dental treatment, airfare, and other child care expenses, has been granted to Gifty in accordance with the recent ruling.
She also received two houses, one in the UK and the other at Spintex, a plot of land used for a petrol station and automobiles from BMW and Infiniti.
On the contrary, Asamoah Gyan has won the case because his attorneys maintained that Gifty’s false disclosure of her prior marriage was made without consent.
Asamoah Gyan was the winner all along, according to Baffour Gyan, who emphasised that the news reports had been altered to give the impression that he had lost.
