Ghanaian Kumawood actor Oteele is facing renewed attention online, but amid the latest controversy, comments previously made by his wife, Gifty Nana Afriyie, about their marriage have also resurfaced.
In an April 2025 interview with ZionFelix, Afriyie alleged that Oteele had cheated on her repeatedly during their relationship. The comments were made months before the latest online controversy involving alleged private material.
What Oteele’s wife said in 2025
According to the April 10, 2025 report, Afriyie said she had experienced repeated infidelity in her marriage and had become accustomed to what she described as her husband’s alleged behaviour after years together.
She reportedly told ZionFelix that if she discovered another instance of alleged cheating, she could respond by doing the same, explaining that she wanted her husband to understand the emotional pain associated with betrayal.
Her comments were presented as her account of events within the marriage. They should therefore be understood as allegations made by Afriyie and not as independently established findings of fact.
She said she had considered leaving the marriage
Afriyie also spoke openly about the strain the alleged infidelity had placed on her marriage. The 2025 report said she had contemplated divorce on several occasions.
However, she explained that concerns about their children and the emotional impact a separation could have on them had influenced her decision to remain in the relationship.
Her comments provided a glimpse into the personal difficulties she said she had experienced behind the public image of the couple.
Her comments on polygamy
During the same interview, Afriyie also discussed the possibility of Oteele taking another wife. According to the report, she said she would not necessarily oppose such a decision if certain conditions concerning her welfare and the wellbeing of their children were met.
The discussion demonstrated that the couple’s relationship had previously been the subject of public conversations about trust, fidelity, separation and the possibility of another marriage.
Why the 2025 interview matters now
The resurfacing of Afriyie’s earlier comments does not establish the authenticity or circumstances surrounding any material currently circulating online. Instead, it provides important background to the public discussion surrounding Oteele and his marriage.
GhanaMedia.net has not independently verified any alleged private material currently being circulated online and will not publish or link to intimate content.
The distinction is important: Afriyie’s 2025 statements are documented comments attributed to her, while claims surrounding newly circulating material require separate verification.
What has been confirmed
What can be established from the available reporting is that Oteele’s wife publicly discussed alleged repeated infidelity in April 2025. YEN.com.gh also reported on the interview, stating that Afriyie alleged Oteele had cheated on her many times over the years.
Neither the existence of a previous allegation nor the current online speculation should be presented as proof of any separate allegation unless independently verified.
Responsible reporting remains important
The latest controversy highlights the risks of treating viral social-media material as established fact. Private material can be manipulated, taken out of context or circulated without the consent of the people involved.
GhanaMedia.net will therefore continue to distinguish between verified information, documented statements and unconfirmed claims as the story develops.
