John Mensah Denies Infidelity And Parental Neglect Claims

Black Stars defender John Mensah has denied reports of alleged infidelity and neglect of parental responsibilities as being claimed by his wife. The general Black Stars skipper was scheduled to appear before an Accra High Court over a divorce case initiated by his wife Henrietta. According to Footy-ghana, Henrietta�s decision was informed by alleged infidelity on Mensah�s part. The couple has been married for over a decade with four children. The report said Justice Doris Bempong is the presiding judge over the case which was called on Monday. The defender was not present in court, but his wife was in attendance hence the case was adjourned to a later date. The central defender also stands accused by Henrietta of having neglected his parental responsibilities leaving the upkeep of their kids to her alone at their Trassacco residence. Speaking to XYZ sports, the former Sunderland defender rubbished the claims by his wife of infidelity and also not taking his children�s responsibilities. �I do what every responsible father has to do for his children and I have no reason not to cater for their needs" Mensah told XYZ Sports "I do well to send them money as I know they will need them and I have always been taking responsibility of everything else including their school fees," he added. "All these accusations by her are false and I know the truth will definitely be told one day" he concluded
