He said they both decided not to undergo the traditional marriage procedure which would automatically need both families but rather went to seal the marriage at the court and have lived happily with two beautiful children : Sir Kwame Bota and Sante Nsia-Apau.
“My parents didn’t agree to our marriage. We lived in Kumasi but we were going to play a show in Accra. When we got to Nkawkaw, my wife who was working in a law firm said if there are about three key types of marriage; an ordinance, customary, Mohammedan, and another one I don’t remember, why can’t we get married?
According to Okyeame Kwame, religion was the only thing that was hindering their marriage. Apart from that, both families loved each other.
He added he informed his mother about the marriage a night before the ceremony because he understood that he was not going to marry the lady for his mother but for himself.
“Since we won’t live together, why would I marry a lady she wants and not what I want?” he asked.
