I'm single...my two wives have left me - Samini reveals


Self-acclaimed ‘African dancehall king’, Samini, has
revealed that he is no longer married and has no
wife presently, contrary to the known fact that he
had two wives.
Making the revelation to Delay Frimpong Manso on
the Delay Show on Viasat1 after some hesitation,
Samini said that he had married two ladies at a
young age with the perception that he was doing the
honourable thing of marrying all the mothers of his
children.
According to him, he felt he was doing the right
thing but the ladies, after a while did not agree to
the arrangement of being married to the same man
and the circumstances of the marriages and
decided to call it quit; so he is currently with no
wife.
‘I don’t have a wife. Everybody has gone their
separate ways. Thanks to civilization, my former
wives decided to stop the marriage,’ he disclosed.
Samini defended his action of marrying more than
one woman by saying: “where I come from, it is
acceptable to marry more than one woman and it
was my wish to marry all the mothers of my kids
and make them comfortable.

I thought I was doing the right thing but the women
felt otherwise”
“Once you can take care of your wives and
children, it is acceptable to marry the women as a
responsible man,” he continued.
The irony of Samini’s marriage life which hit the
headlines years ago was not about his marriage to
two different women but how he did it.
In February 2011, Samini got married to Mercy
Geker, mother of his daughter, Yelisun Samini in
London. At the time, Samini was already engaged to
Christian Aboagye Mensah, a Ghanaian-based in
Canada and the mother of his daughters- Toyila
Samini and Ayana Samini, unbeknownst to Mercy
Geker.
Samini, on 10th May 2011, officially registered his
marriage to Christiana Aboagye Mensah in a low
profile ceremony which took place at the Registrar
General’s Office in Accra in the presence of their
children.
Samini currently has four kids, three girls and one
boy from different women but he is not married to
any of the women, per his account.
