Information reaching BEATWAVES indicates that popular Gospel singer, Rev. Esther Smith has parted ways with her husband of four years, Rev. Ahinkan Bonsu, a pastor at Kumasi in the Ashanti Region.This followed claims that she had given her newly born baby with the pastor to another man in faraway Germany, where she was now staying.According to sources close to the singer, if the man, whose identity was not disclosed, adopted the child, it would make things easier for Esther Smith as regards securing documents for her continued stay in Germany.Weeks ago, the 2003 Gospel Artiste of the Year’s family returned the bride price and all items used in performing her customary rites to the pastor.Telling his story on Channel R, an Accra-based radio station, Pastor Ahinkan explained that in December last year, the singer and other musicians such as Grace Ashie and Kweku Gyasi were invited by one Odefou, for a show in Holland.Esther, who was then four months pregnant, traveled to Holland without informing him, due to a misunderstanding they had over her latest music video with Morris Babyface.He said after leaving Ghana, Esther did not contact him until he called the man who invited them.“Later, I had this information that Esther has moved from Holland to Germany and had given her pregnancy to another man there with the view to getting documents to facilitate her stay there.”To be sure, Pastor Ahinkan said he called to enquire from the man who invited his wife to Holland “who confirmed Esther had moved to join another man in Germany.”According to the Pastor, Esther Smith gave birth to his baby, and went on to name the child Bright Luciano Smith Bonsu at an out-dooring ceremony at a Seventh Day Adventist (SDA) Church in Germany without informing him.He said he reported the incident to their marriage counselors, and when Esther’s family was contacted, they heaped insults on the counselors saying “they can not show Esther what to do with her life”.Two weeks ago, he said he had a call from his mother that Esther’s family had come to dissolve their 4-year marriage.“Where we’ve got to we cannot hide the truth. It is about four years now that I married Esther. Since then I have not had any peace.”Before her trip in December, he said, Esther persistently heaped insults on him and his family calling them poor witches.The pastor, who claimed he wrote most of Esther’s popular songs, said he suspected his wife of having extra-marital affairs before this incident even cropped up.BEATWAVES’ efforts to get Esther’s version of the story proved futile.
