Ghanaian journalist and outspoken broadcaster, Afia Pokua, popularly known as Vim Lady, has reignited public discussion surrounding the ongoing marriage dispute between former Black Stars captain, Asamoah Gyan, and his ex-wife, Gifty Gyan.
The high-profile case, which has seen years of courtroom battles over annulment, paternity tests, and property settlement, recently resurfaced after another legal twist. Reports indicate that a new lawyer representing Gyan has challenged parts of the ruling, claiming certain misconceptions may have influenced the previous outcome.
Speaking on her platform, Vim Lady openly threw her weight behind the football legend, arguing that Asamoah Gyan has been unfairly treated in the court of public opinion. She suggested that the former striker’s ex-wife benefitted from sympathy narratives that may have clouded legal judgments.
“Sometimes, the public is quick to judge without knowing the full details. Asamoah Gyan has worked hard for everything he owns, and we must be careful not to destroy his reputation over misconceptions,” Vim Lady asserted.
Her comments have sparked heated debates on social media, with some praising her for defending the former football star, while others believe she is being biased against Gyan’s ex-wife, who was previously declared the winner in aspects of the case.
Asamoah Gyan, Ghana’s all-time leading goalscorer, has largely kept a low profile in recent months, only surfacing in court when necessary. With his marriage case back in the headlines, many are closely watching how the fresh legal challenge will unfold and whether it could potentially overturn earlier rulings.
The story continues to stir emotions across Ghana, blending themes of love, betrayal, wealth, and the pressures of fame.
