Songstress, Wiyaala says although she got married the English way, her family does not recognize her as a married woman because she has not been taken through the traditional marriage rites.
There were reports in some sections of the media that the Funsi-based singer got married at a private event.
But speaking in an interview on Accra-based Adom TV, Wiyaala disclosed that she’s recognized to have a boyfriend by her family and not a husband.
She said she will only be recognized as a married woman when her family takes her round the village to make every individual aware of the fact that she’s married and other traditional rites performed.
“My family said they don’t recognise what happened. For them, they will still accept any man who comes to them to ask for my hand in marriage because I haven’t done the introduction properly.”
“They will have to take me around the whole village to show I am married. For now, I am as free as a bird but on the English level I am kind of married but the man will have to send the cola nuts to do the proper knocking.”
