Prophet Nicholas Osei, popularly known as Kumchacha, the founder and leader of Heaven's Gate Ministries, has come to Asamoah Gyan's defense, asserting that Gyan made the right choice by annulling his marriage.

He pointed out that Gyan's explanation, where he mentioned threats from his wife's husband regarding the children's paternity, is a valid reason for his decision.

In an interview with Kingdom FM, Prophet Kumchacha expressed his disagreement with those making derogatory remarks about Gyan's divorce on social media, labeling them as 'fools' for their imprudent comments.

He stated, "I have heard about Asamoah Gyan's marital issues. What has he done wrong to Ghanaians? Some people are criticizing him on social media, and, excuse me, some 'foolish' individuals are insulting him. What has he done? What Asamoah Gyan said about the divorce makes a lot of sense."

Kumchacha continued by explaining the circumstances, saying, "He [Asamoah Gyan] mentioned that before marrying the lady, he was unaware that she was already married and that the previous marriage had not been legally annulled in court. The woman hid this information from him, so he had no knowledge of it. It was at some point that the woman's husband began making threats, according to what I have heard."

Background:

Asamoah Gyan's lawyer, Edwin Kusi Appiah, revealed that the main reason behind Gyan's divorce filing was the threats he received from his ex-wife's husband, who claimed that Gyan was not the biological father of their three children. The accusation that their firstborn was not his child was the breaking point that led to the divorce. Gyan initiated legal proceedings to have their marriage annulled after gathering evidence.

Kusi Appiah stated, “Asamoah Gyan married his wife in 2013 but had been with her since 2003. He got information that prior to marrying her, the lady had married another man. Their marriage had three kids with the firstborn coming in 2005. Asamoah Gyan told me he was threatened by someone that the children, particularly the firstborn were not his and that they belonged to him (the person issuing the threat).

“That is what forced us to go to court and seek permission to conduct DNA on the kids. Thankfully, the DNA test proved that Gyan was the father of the children and he was really happy with it. Gyan was happy because he loved the children. That is the main reason Asamoah Gyan went to court,” he said.
