Man teaches cheating lover bitter lesson
Just as it is true that every bowl has its lid, so has every identified problem also has its solution.
But an aggrieved young man who could no longer be in a “toxic relationship” with his would be wife, rather resorted to unconventional means to teach his lady a bitter lesson to end the relationship.
The young man by name Abu Mohammed said to be a Burkinabe businessman fell in love with a seamstress of different ethnicity at Assin Fosu in the Central Region and introduced her to his parents and other family members who are also residing in the area that he would marry her.
A dependable source said that Abu travelled to Burkina Faso in November last year and promised to come back in December to spend the Christmas with his fiancee.
The source who is related to Abu said that upon his (Abu’s) return to Assin Fosu at about 11.00pm on Christmas Day, he rushed to the girlfriend’s house with the speed of light to spend the night but his plans turned into a fiasco.
Reason? Per the sources account Abu did not inform his lady that he was on his way back so she went and brought another man to her room to spend the night.
Though there was light in the room, no amount of knocking by Abu could elicit any responses from the lady.
However, Abu who was locked outside could hear some inaudible voices in the room and suspected that his fiancee was cheating on him.
So he went for a drum full of water in the compound and poured everything through an opening into the single room ostensibly to make the mattress completely wet since there was no bed and the mattress was put on the bare floor.
According to the source, Abu’s method worked to perfection as the “intruder” with his cheating partner could no longer enjoy a peaceful sleep because the whole room was full of water with a soaked mattress.
It took the intervention of Abu’s relatives and some good friends who got wind of his “payback method” to save the embarrassing situation, for the man in the room to flee through a window.

Ghana Tourism Authority is leading Ghana’s participation at ITB Berlin, which opened in Berlin with a vibrant national pavilion highlighting Ghana’s rich cultural heritage, tourism destinations and investment opportunities.
March 5 has been designated as Ghana Day, a special platform to promote Ghana’s languages, cuisine, Kente, festivals and business prospects to the global tourism community. The stand has already drawn strong interest with traditional arts and crafts displays, immersive multimedia presentations and popular Ghanaian snacks.
Seven private-sector players are exhibiting alongside government officials as part of efforts to deepen trade partnerships, expand market access, and attract investment across the hospitality, heritage tourism, ecotourism, and creative arts sectors.
Ahead of the official opening, the Ghana delegation also engaged young Ghanaian investors in Germany in collaboration with V Afrika-Verein and the Ghana Embassy, strengthening diaspora investment linkages and highlighting opportunities within the tourism value chain.
Ghana’s coordinated presence at ITB Berlin 2026 reinforces its strategy to position the country as the Gateway to Africa and a competitive destination for leisure travel and global investment.
The Member of Parliament for Nsawam Adoagyiri, Frank Annoh Dompreh, has expressed concern over delays in the release of the District Assemblies Common Fund, warning that the situation is stalling development across the country.
On his facebook page, he described as a matter of urgent national importance, the Minority Chief Whip pointed to what he sees as a growing crisis of unpaid contractors, abandoned projects, and halted infrastructure works in many districts.
He noted that several communities are grappling with half completed schools, unfinished health facilities, abandoned markets, deteriorating roads, and stalled sanitation projects.
According to him, many contractors who have executed projects for district assemblies have not been paid, forcing some construction firms to demobilise from sites while workers lose their jobs.
He stressed that the District Assemblies Common Fund is not a discretionary allocation but a constitutional requirement under Article 252 of the 1992 Constitution, intended to support development at the local level.
In his view, years of delayed releases and accumulated arrears have weakened district development financing and disrupted projects meant to improve living conditions in communities.
He further argued that some payments made in recent years were largely the settlement of old debts rather than funding for new or ongoing projects, a situation he believes has affected contractor confidence and local economic activity.
He described the issue as more than a budgetary challenge, characterising it as a development emergency and a governance concern.
He therefore urged the appropriate authorities to pay outstanding DACF arrears, settle contractors who have completed their work, and ensure that transfers to districts are automatic and predictable.
He maintained that decentralisation can only succeed when district assemblies receive adequate and timely funding to carry out development projects.
He emphasised that stalled projects directly affect ordinary citizens, since they rely on such infrastructure for education, healthcare, transportation, sanitation, and economic activities.
He called for renewed attention to grassroots development, insisting that national progress should not be concentrated only in major cities but extended to all communities.
