Side Chic Loses Case Against Sugar Daddy As Court Asks Her To Pay GHC10,000 To Him
The highly publicized case involving Deborah Seyram Adablah, who accused an ex-Chief Finance Officer of a bank, Ernest Kwasi Nimako, of sexual harassment, has finally come to a close.
The court has dismissed Adablah’s case, ruling that while their relationship was deemed immoral and not socially acceptable, there was no legal basis for her claims against Nimako. Justice John Bosco Nabarese presided over the case and delivered the verdict on November 28th.
The court said the foundation of the relationship was one that the court should not be invited to give judicial stamps to, adding, “You cannot recover the price of something you have committed into an immoral act.”
The court has imposed a penalty of GH¢10,000 on the plaintiff. This decision was made in response to the application filed by the bank’s former Chief Finance Officer, who requested the court dismiss Adablah’s case.
Background
Deborah Seyram Adablah’s suit, filed on Monday, January 23, 2023, alleged that Ernest Kwasi Nimako, whom she refers to as her “sugar daddy,” made several promises to her.
The plaintiff alleged that Nimako had agreed to purchase a car for her, cover her accommodation expenses for three years, provide a monthly stipend of GH¢3,000, marry her after divorcing his wife, and offer a lump sum to start a business. However, the plaintiff claims that Nimako took back the car, which was initially registered in his name, after just one year, depriving her of its use. Furthermore, she asserts that Nimako only paid for one year of accommodation, despite promising to cover three years.
The plaintiff is seeking a court order to compel Nimako, whom she refers to as her “sugar daddy,” to transfer the car’s title into her name and return the vehicle to her. She also requests that the court order Nimako to provide her with the lump sum agreed upon to start her own business, enabling her to support herself as previously agreed. Additionally, she seeks an order for Nimako to pay the outstanding two years’ worth of accommodation expenses, as per their agreement.
Furthermore, the plaintiff requests that the court order Nimako to cover her medical expenses resulting from a “side effect of a family planning treatment” that he had advised her to undergo in order to prevent pregnancy.
