Ola Michael, a media personality, has suggested that actor Kwaku Manu‘s divorce from Naa Okailey Nyarko might have stemmed from her desire for a partner with higher social status and refinement.
According to Michael, she had always aspired to be with a “white man” and viewed Kwaku Manu as a stepping stone in her life.
Michael recounted an incident where Kwaku Manu sponsored a birthday trip abroad for his wife, after which she never returned.
This, he claims, led to the deterioration of their relationship, which was further strained by the long distance until their marriage eventually failed.
Michael also mentioned that Kwaku Manu was deeply affected upon hearing about his ex-wife’s remarriage.
“What happened was that when Kwaku Manu’s wife was celebrating her birthday, he flew the entire family abroad, and she never came back. She saw Kwaku Manu as a means to an end; she wanted to marry a white man and never returned from the States. Their relationship deteriorated, the long-distance relationship worsened until the marriage failed,” Michael said during his show on Neat FM.
Reflecting on their marriage, Michael highlighted the differences in their social standing and education.
“When Kwaku Manu met his wife, she was learned and he wasn’t. He saw the lady could help him. She was even managing the schools he built,” he stated.
He noted that Kwaku Manu’s wife played a significant role in managing the schools he established, suggesting that she had a more refined background compared to the actor.
However, Kwaku Manu has denied being heartbroken and maintains that he and his ex-wife still have a healthy relationship.
Background:
After divorcing Kwaku Manu over three years ago, Naa Okailey Nyarko recently remarried, this time to a White man.
Naa Okailey and Kwaku Manu’s divorce was publicly confirmed by the latter in a 2022 interview with Kobby Kyei.
While the actor did not disclose the reasons behind their separation, he noted that despite their efforts to maintain the marriage, they ultimately decided to part ways.
Manu also highlighted that there is no universal solution for a successful marriage, as each relationship is unique.
