NewsGhana, Latest Updates and Breaking News of Ghana, News Ghana, https:\/\/www.newsghana.com.gh\/rnaq-offers-gh%c2%a22-million-to-settle-divorce-case\/Businessman Richard Nii Armah Quaye has proposed a GH\u00a22 million out-of-court settlement to resolve his divorce dispute with Joana Quaye, well above the GH\u00a2300,000 ordered by the High Court.
\nThe proposal was made in a letter dated May 7, 2026, sent by his lawyers, Sory & Partners@Law, to Joana Quaye\u2019s legal team, Dame & Partners, who are led by former Attorney-General Godfred Yeboah Dame. The letter describes the offer as \u201cwithout prejudice\u201d and frames it as an enhanced financial proposal made in the interest of peace and family harmony, with the wellbeing of the couple\u2019s children cited as a central motivation. Richard Nii Armah Quaye\u2019s legal team said he is seeking to resolve all outstanding matters and avoid further litigation.
\nThe offer arrives as the case moves on multiple fronts. Mrs. Joana Quaye has filed an appeal at the Court of Appeal challenging the High Court ruling of January 20, 2026, which awarded her GH\u00a2300,000 as a lump sum, a one-third share of the matrimonial home in Dansoman and GH\u00a25,000 monthly for their three children\u2019s upkeep. That award fell far short of the GH\u00a250 million she had originally sought.
\nMrs. Quaye has also petitioned the Chief Justice and the Judicial Council over the handling of the case by the presiding judge, Justice Dorgu. Her petition alleges that while the court issued final orders on January 20, 2026, the full written judgment was only made available on April 20, 2026, a gap her lawyers argue wiped out the statutory three-month window within which she should have been able to assess the ruling and file an appeal. The petition calls for an investigation into possible procedural irregularities in the delivery of the judgment.
\nSeparately, Mrs. Quaye filed an injunction application in May 2026 seeking to freeze a broad portfolio of assets pending the appeal outcome, including shares in several companies, properties and luxury vehicles she alleges were built on a business foundation she helped establish during the marriage. Evidence has since emerged showing her as an original co-shareholder in Quick Credit and Investment Micro-Credit Limited, the company later renamed Bills Micro Credit Limited, which her legal team describes as the financial foundation of Richard Nii Armah Quaye\u2019s wider business empire.
\nRichard Nii Armah Quaye had indicated publicly on a television programme in recent months that he was willing to resolve the matter privately for the sake of their children. The formal May 7 letter from his lawyers represents the first documented step in that direction, though no response from Mrs. Quaye\u2019s legal team has been publicly confirmed.
