'Men can sue wives for commercializing sex in marriage' – Maurice Ampaw

Private legal practitioner Maurice Ampaw has warned married women to stop commercialising sex within their marriages. In an interview on GTV on January 4, 2025, Maurice Ampaw pointed out that it is illegal for a woman to receive money or other goods in exchange for intercourse. He emphasised that men have the right to take their wives to court and request a divorce if their partner demands money or material goods in return for sex. "In marriage, the first right is that couples have the right to sexual satisfaction. So, your man has the right to have access to your body, and the woman has the right... So, you don't deny your man sex. It is unreasonable if you fail to provide free sex... These days, our married women are using social media to commercialise sex. They will ask for an iPhone, and if you are not able to provide it, they won't give you sex. "The law only regulates where to penetrate, but how to go about it is a free area. I can tell you, that a lot of men are paying for sex, and women have made it a condition because social media is making our wives think they are not sex machines... and it is illegal for our wives to make demands before sex. Men have the right to take them to court and seek divorce," he said. Maurice Ampaw also claimed that oral sex is illegal under the law. He further urged President John Dramani Mahama to approve the anti-LGBTQ bill so individuals who violate the law can be punished. "The law states that sex is about a man penetrating, so oral sex is illegal in Ghana. Those who are licking and sucking are pure criminals," he stated. To buttress his point, he stated an instance, β€œThe wife of a man of God demanded a divorce, but she was not open until we went before the court, and we got to know that the man had refused to have legal sex and had been giving her oral sex, which the woman didn't like. However, the man had been insisting on it for the past seven years...” Meanwhile, watch as Kwami Sefa Kayi begs NDC to return to Kokrokoo show JHM/EB
