It has been confirmed that sensational fetish priest Nana Kwaku Bonsam is getting ready to marry a pretty-faced London-based Ghanaian studying at the University of Greenwich.
The lady, Getrude, NEWS-ONE gathered, is an Ashanti who was born in Ghana but grew up in London and has lived there her entire life.
Both Bonsam and Gertrude have confirmed their planned marriage to NEWS-ONE and say they are most likely to march to the altar by October this year.
Getrude, popularly known as Trudie, visited her husband-to-be, Kwaku Bonsam at his Sarpeiman shrine in Accra sometime last month and spent two weeks with him. NEWS-ONE succeeded in getting a few comments from her concerning her relationship with the fetish priest.
“Well it is a matter of love and understanding. I am very impressed at what he is doing and since we understand each other and have fallen in love, getting married should not be a problem.
“That is why I came down to see things for myself and I am proud to tell you that yes I shall get married to Kwaku Bonsam soon,” Gertrude told NEWS-ONE in a flawless London accent.
She sounded very learned, intelligent, humble and had the type of physical beauty not common among the wives of fetish priests.
Bonsam, on his part, spoke in Twi: “Marriage is a good thing and every man that finds a good wife has found a good thing. I have suggested we do both the traditional marriage as well as the church (ordinance) one.”
Meanwhile NEWS-ONE has information that Nana Kwaku Bonsam recently divorced his youngest and second wife.
The fetish priest and the woman, whose name was simply given as Maame, are said to have two children but their marriage of many years hit the rocks about two months ago. The lady had to pack bag and baggage and leave her matrimonial home to her father’s house.
Though Bonsam confirmed the divorce, he declined giving details about the cause of the break-up, aside saying that he was a polygamist and that God would bless him with another wife in a short time. When asked which God he was referring to, the fetish priest said he was referring to the Supreme Being who created mankind.
NEWS-ONE however learnt that the cause of the split started three years ago when Maame challenged Bonsam in public that there was nothing he could do to her even if she disrespected him.
The fetish priest was said to have taken the challenge personal and cursed his wife, causing her to go naked in public. Maame was said to have raised her skirts and walked around for about 10 minutes or so before returning to her senses.
Bonsam and the wife are said to have had disagreements since then until two months ago when she had another disagreement with Bonsam’s mother. The disagreement with her mother-in-law, coupled with others, led to the final separation.
