Mrs Owusu- Brempong
A marriage Counsellor, Rita Owusu-Brempong has cautioned married couples against the practice of running into the arms of people of the opposite sex to find solace during challenging times.
According to her, some couples get immediate satisfaction from engaging in adultery but later spend the rest of their lives dealing with the consequences. Speaking in an interview with The Spectator on Saturday, Mrs Owusu-Brempong observed with worry how adultery has led to marriages.
She described the development as unacceptable in the Ghanaian culture as well as in Christianity or Islam which should not be encouraged in the society.
The Marriage Counsellor advised couples who had challenges in their marriages to make time to discuss their issues and even seek help from professionals.
“Who said the person whose arms you are running to is perfect or doesn’t have challenges? Why can’t you use the same energy to accommodate your own spouse and work to make your home better,” she questioned. She advised couples to choose their friends with care, especially those who are God-fearing so they will not lead them astray in difficult times.
Mrs Owusu-Brempong advised couples to make their homes a peaceful place to live, to promote good mental health.
“If you are a wife who nags, stop it, and if you are a husband who does not make time for your wife deal with it immediately so that you do not push your spouse into the hands of another person,” she cautioned. She also encouraged couples to cultivate the habit of going on vacations occasionally as a couple or individually because it helped to breathe new life into the marriage.
“It doesn’t have to be at an expensive place or outside the country. A little time alone does the body a lot of good and refreshes the marriage as well,” she said.

The Tema Regional Police Command has arrested a 32-year-old man for allegedly posing as a soldier and extorting money from unsuspecting members of the public at Ashaiman.
The suspect, identified as Bright Atsu Kudiabor, was arrested by the Ashaiman Police on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, at about 7:00 a.m.
According to the Police, he was arrested at an area known as “I Shall Return”, where he was allegedly parading himself as a soldier and demanding money from people.
The Police said Kudiabor, who is an ex-convict, was initially arrested by personnel of the Ghana National Fire Service in Ashaiman with assistance from other members of the public.
A search conducted on him after he was handed over to the Police reportedly led to the recovery of a set of military camouflage uniform.
The suspect is currently in Police custody and assisting with investigations.
The Tema Regional Police Command said he would be processed for court after investigations are completed.
The Police urged the public to remain vigilant and report anyone who falsely presents themselves as a soldier or a member of another security agency to deceive or extort money from the public.

Volta Regional Minister, James Gunu, says the Volta Region holds enormous agricultural potential and efforts must be geared towards connecting farmers to the needed resources to unlock that potential.
He said focus must be on linking farmers to resources, technology, financing and markets to increase production, create jobs and build sustainable livelihoods.
Hon. Gunu made the remarks at the national launch of the Ghana Tomato Self-Sufficiency Initiative (GHATSI) held at Anloga in the Volta Region on Tuesday, September 15.
The initiative, under the theme “Produce at Home. Feed the Nation. Export the Surplus,” seeks to boost local tomato production, processing and marketing while reducing Ghana’s heavy reliance on imported tomatoes.
The launch was attended by the Minister for Food and Agriculture, Eric Opoku, his Deputy, John Setor Dumelo, Feed Ghana Coordinator, Bright Demordzi, Members of Parliament, traditional leaders, MMDCEs, farmers and other stakeholders.
Mr.Gunu expressed appreciation to the Minister for Food and Agriculture for the support announced for the region, including two excavators, 200 cartons of organic fertiliser, and GH¢200,000 for Ms. Kuatudzo Esther Dela, a tomato farmer and processor from Ziope.
He described the initiative as an important step towards making agriculture a stronger driver of food security, job creation and economic growth in the Volta Region.
