A woman identified as Juliet, from Otikrom, has appealed to her estranged husband, Kwabena Dapaah, to accept responsibility for her pregnancy, insisting he can request a DNA test after the child is born if he still has doubts about the baby’s paternity.

Speaking on Oyerepa Afutuo, hosted by Aunt Naa on Monday, July 27, 2026, Juliet recounted how their marriage fell apart after her husband allegedly left her for another woman before they later reconciled through family intervention.

“I am Juliet from Otikrom. I was married to Kwabena Dapaah, but he left me in 2014 after being with another woman for one year and eight months. I then cheated on him. When he found out, he demanded GH¢35,000 from the man I cheated with, as our custom demands, and the man paid. After our families settled the matter, we got back together. A few months later, I realised I was pregnant. I informed my husband, but he said he would not take responsibility because the pregnancy was not his,” she stated.

Juliet also explained how her husband allegedly discovered her affair.

“I was asleep one night when he returned from the other woman he was having an affair with. He asked my child to unlock my phone for him. He went through my phone and found my chats and some nude content involving the man I cheated with. He immediately slapped me and threw me out of the house that same night,” she alleged.

Contacted during the programme, Kwabena Dapaah denied parts of his wife’s account and insisted the GH¢35,000 he received was not compensation for adultery.

“All she is saying is not true. The money I received was not ‘ayefere’. It was to settle the debts I incurred during our marriage. I have never slept with her since our families resolved the issue. Besides, the man she cheated with is someone I know. He lives in our area and is even my friend,” he responded.

Juliet, however, maintained that her husband should support her throughout the pregnancy instead of rejecting it outright. She said if he still doubts the child’s paternity after delivery, he is free to request a DNA test to establish the truth.
