'Give me my GH¢150,000' - Man demands compensation after DNA shows child isn’t his

A young Ghanaian man identified as Sly has taken his case to a local media house, demanding compensation from his ex-girlfriend after a DNA test showed that the child he had been raising is not his.

The young man, who took his former girlfriend, identified as Esther, to Lawson TV, a relationship talk show that addresses issues affecting marriages and relationships, said he is demanding GH¢150,000 from her as compensation.

According to the less-than-two-minute footage, Sly was seen giving his former girlfriend and the biological father of the child an ultimatum to pay the GH¢150,000, which he claims is the amount he spent on the child and Esther during her pregnancy and childbirth.

“Apart from this place, I am not taking this case anywhere. The DNA result is out, and it says this kid is not mine, which I understand.

“Let the man responsible for the kid know that I spent GH¢150,000; therefore, your family and the man should give me the money, and I won’t bother you again,” he said.

While Sly made his demands, Esther, who was not pleased with the amount he was demanding, interjected, insisting that the GH¢150,000 claim was false.

According to her, the amount spent on her and the child could not have amounted to GH¢150,000.
