Lawyer for the fiancé of the late Dr Grace Boadu, CEO of Gift Herbal Hospital, Maurice Ampaw, has shared information on how the deceased’s family tormented his client during his romantic relations with Dr Boadu.
On Kasapa FM, Maurice Ampaw indicated that his client, Pastor Kingsley Gyamfi, was among the many suitors the family of Dr Boadu disapproved of due to her affluence.
He indicated that the family successfully drove away any man who showed interest in their daughter and went to the extreme by having Pastor Gyamfi arrested.
Mr Ampaw noted that the family demanded his arrest when Dr Boadu almost experienced a mental breakdown after taking an injection at Kotoka International Airport.
“There was this instance they got to the airport in Accra and Grace was in severe pain. She usually suffers this pain and there is this injection she usually administers to herself to kill it. But it is mostly prescribed. So that medicine was not available and the pain intensified.
“She started rolling on the floor and Kingsley had to order for the medicine from Kumasi with chartered flight to Accra. She injected the drug herself and for a moment she got relieved. Then suddenly she started acting mad. So, they had to forcefully grab her, took her to the hospital to stabilize the pain. So, the family latter arranged for her fiancé to be arrested because they held him accountable for whatever had happened to grace. That is where I took over the case from,” he established.
According to Mr Ampaw, Dr. Grace Boadu was likely misusing pethidine injection.
Dr Boadu died on January 29, 2024, after it was alleged she slipped in her bathroom and hit her head on the ground. She died at her residence at Tantra Hills in Accra.
