What saved Asamoah Gyan in Court

On the subject of the marriage between the two, the court annulled the marriage using a technicality employed by Asamoah Gyan’s lawyers.

According to the lawyer, before marrying Asamoah Gyan, Gifty Gyan was already married to someone else hence her marriage to Asamoah Gyan is null and void.

The court found out that Gifty Gyan did indeed marry someone but it was for Visa purposes which counsel for Gifty Gyan argued that Asamoah Gyan knew about that “marriage of convenience”.

In 2002, a then “broke” Asamoah Gyan  allegedly agreed to have Gifty Gyan take a contract marriage because he wanted her to get a UK visa in 2002 for medical treatment.  Asamoah was said to be ‘broke’ at the time. A marriage of convenience was hence fixed between Gifty and her relative who was then and still based in London to enable her to get a visa. Lawyers for Gifty Gyan told the court that Asamoah Gyan cannot claim not to know about that marriage which is now using against his wife to seek annulment.

The court in ruling noted that at the time the supposed “first marriage” by Gifty Gyan took place, she was clearly a minor and couldn’t have legally entered a marriage. The court nevertheless annulled the marriage between Asamoah Gyan and Gifty Gyan and awarded properties to Gifty Gyan.

The court noted that despite the annulment if the marriage, the kids which Asamoah Gyan claimed were not his are actually his children confirmed by court-sanctioned DNA test. Asamoah Gyan’s claims of infidelity using the kids’ paternity was dismissed.
