Eugene Arhin’s Wife withdraws property grabbing, abuse allegations

Estranged wife of Eugene Arhin, Acting Director of Communications at the presidency, Jubilee House, has abandoned her initial claims of massive property grabbing by her husband.

This follows Eugene Arhin's response to the petition made by Mrs Arhin in which he put her to strict proof regarding the claims she made in her first petition.

As reported by Daily Graphic Online, the amended petition filed by Gloria Assan Arhin at an Accra High Court on Monday, February 15, 2021, showed her backtrack on several of her earlier claims.

 In her amended petition Gloria Arhin now claims that there is only one property in contention, which is an uncompleted 5-bedroom house at Santor in the Kpone Katamanso District.

This is the same property Mrs Arhin had alleged in her first petition that it was located at East Legon, but has now amended in her new petition to state its location as Santor, in the Kpone Katamanso District.

The claims of several other properties which she listed in her first petition have also been abandoned. 

Mrs Arhin is laying claim to some second hand vehicles purchased during the marriage.
They include a Toyota Avalon vehicle with registration number GR 7108-18, a Toyota Lexus with registration GE 4646-18, Toyota Tundra with registration number GE 7108-18 and a Hyundai Elantra with registration number GE 4646-19.

Mrs Arhin has also abandoned the many claims of being physically abused by her husband in her amended petition, after the former subjected her to strict proof in his response to the petition.

Aside the financial contributions that Gloria claims to have made towards the acquisition of the properties, she deposed that she was also in charge of supervision of the construction of the project and spent all her days on construction site supervising the workmen and ensuring the project going on smoothly.

She still insists the marriage be dissolved since according to her, the marriage has broken down beyond reconciliation but wants custody of their three children with access to their father.

That aside, she wants the court to order Eugene Arhin to pay her the sum of ₵2million and for him to maintain the children, pay their school fees and health bills and the cost of incidentals to the suit.

In his response to the petition, Eugene Arhin has denied almost all the claims she made.

He however admitted to wanting to leave the marriage
