The ongoing saga between legendary Ghanaian gospel musician Esther Smith and her ex-husband, Rev. Kwame Ahenkan Bonsu, has taken a completely unexpected turn. What started as a messy relitigation of their mid-2000s marital drama has now dragged in one of Ghana’s most respected media figures, Nana Aba Anamoah, and she is having absolutely none of it.
The drama ignited during a recent live radio interview when Rev. Ahenkan Bonsu attempted to clear his name regarding longstanding rumors that he used “love charms” on the gospel star to win her over and control her wealth. In a rather bizarre defense strategy, the pastor claimed that if his true intention was to charm a prominent woman for wealth and fame, he wouldn’t have gone for Esther Smith. Instead, he boldly stated that he would have targeted Nana Aba Anamoah, specifically citing the broadcaster’s eloquence and high social status as his ideal standard.
Unsurprisingly, this unprovoked name-dropping did not sit well with the celebrated journalist. Taking to her official X (formerly Twitter) account, Nana Aba delivered a swift and scathing rebuttal. She expressed her disgust at being dragged into a toxic, decades-old domestic dispute that she has absolutely no business being a part of. She didn’t just come for the pastor; she fired shots at the radio host as well for entertaining and broadcasting the highly unprofessional exchange.
“Between him and the interviewer, I don’t know who has more issues.”
Her sharp, no-nonsense tweet instantly sparked massive support from netizens across the country. Many Ghanaians rallied behind her, praising her for brilliantly shutting down the sensationalized commentary. Fans flooded social media to applaud Nana Aba for refusing to be used as a pawn in someone else’s messy divorce drama, leaving both the pastor and the interviewer with a lot of egg on their faces. It is safe to say that Rev. Ahenkan Bonsu will think twice before casually mentioning the media giant’s name in his interviews again.
