The gentleman at the centre of the
leaked tape of Black Stars player, Afriyie Acquah’s wife, Mrs Amanda Afriyie
Acquah has finally let the cat out on why he chose to record the private
conversation between him and the lady.
Rodney Aboagye revealed in a
telephone conversation with Nana Yaa Brefo of Adom TV that he chose to record
the conversation as evidence to exonerate himself if the need ever arises.
“There have been occasions when I
have been unable to defend myself against Amanda when issues crop up and hence
I chose to record her this time to further back my point anytime something of
this sort creeps up…,” he said.
The marriage between the footballer
and the ex-wife of millionaire, Kenpong became the subject of discussion in the
media this week following a leaked tape which is purported to be the voice of
Amanda.
Amanda claimed in the tape that she
slept with a co-Black Star player, Jordan Ayew whose manhood she said was
‘bigger and more appealing’ than that of her husband, Afriyie Acquah.
"Jordan and I have been good
friends since childhood. We were being mocked from childhood and tagged as
‘husband and wife’. Even Dede Ayew used to say these people, don’t discuss
their issues. They would fight today and you will see them together the next
day…I have been with Jordan for four good years, not four days,” she said.
She further claimed on the tape that
her husband, Afriyie Acquah is infertile, daring him to divorce her if he is
fertile.
"If Afriyie is fertile,
wouldn't he have impregnated me by now? Should I bring you cupful of prescribed
medications he is taking for three months?," Amanda questions in the
audio.
The controversy generated by the
tape has led to several persons including ex-footballer, Augustine Arhinful
urging the Italy-based footballer to advise himself.
He further called for the axing of
Torino's Afriyie Acquah and Aston Villa's Jordan Ayew from Ghana's squad for
the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against Rwanda.
"[The GFA] should seek audience
with [the two players], and if indeed anyone is harboring something then
both players should drop from the team…because it is likely to bring
problems in the set up. Whether we like it or not, it's an issue we need to deal
with. The Black Stars is supposed to assemble next week for an important
game…The GFA] must speak to them privately and [it must be done]
now!" he said.
Meanwhile the two have been named by
coach Avram Grant for the qualifying match.
Rodney in the interview revealed
that he was forced to release the tape when Afriyie Acquah demanded to
listen to it after it emerged that the wife has something to do with Jordan
Ayew.
“So I sent him (Afriyie Acqauh) a
copy and further forwarded it to Major Baah (a close relation of the
footballer) because the mother was not on whatsapp…,” he said.
Rodney who denied he was using the
tape to blackmail the couple dared Amanda to come out with the original version
of the tape to show that he has doctored it, as claimed by her spokespersons.
“The tape is not doctored and I am
daring Amanda to bring out the original if she is still convinced I have
doctored the audio being played out…,” he said.
