Man divorces wife after 24-year over lack of education

A middle-aged Ghanaian woman has opened up about her devastating experience of being divorced by her husband of 24 years, citing her lack of education as the reason for the separation.

In an emotional interview on SOMPA FM, the woman revealed that her ex-husband, an immigration officer, ended their marriage despite their three children together.

She expressed her deep sorrow and frustration, lamenting that her husband chose to end their relationship after more than two decades together, simply because he believed she was not educated enough to be his wife.

Adding to her distress, the woman disclosed that she received no financial compensation or support following the divorce. “After 24 years of being together, he divorced me without giving me GH¢1,” she stated, visibly upset during the interview.
