Deborah Seyram Adablah, the beautiful lady who dragged her former sugar daddy who happens to be a junior pastor and senior banker to court on allegations that he had breached an agreement to take care of her, has been sentenced to 45 days in prison.
The Accra High Court has sentenced Deborah Seyram Adablah to 45 days in jail after finding her guilty of contempt of court after publishing on social media, disparaging remarks about judges handling her case.
The said social media postings went viral and after they were played in court, the lady was summoned to appear before the Accra High Court to explain why she should not be held in contempt for her contemptuous comments in the videos.
Seyram, sometime in January 2023, topped headline news over her court case with her sugar daddy who was a married man, a senior banker and Christian leader who happens to be a junior pastor of a Tema based popular charismatic church.
In her case before the court, the lady said the married man forced her into a love and sex relation with him when she was working as a National Service personnel at the headquarters of a private bank the man was working by then.
Deborah claims she was also not happy that though the man promised to pay for her accommodation for three years he paid for just one year and has breached his agreement to give her a monthly stipend of GH¢3,000, marry her after divorcing his wife and also give her a lump sum to start a business.
Deborah, who described herself as a victim of abuse, did not only sue the married banker and Christian leader, but she also sued the bank as a legal entity for failing to protect her and other ladies, including married women who she alleges were forced into an unwilling sexual relationship with senior male staff of the bank.
According to Deborah, when she started her National Service at the bank in the year 2020, she observed persistent sexual harassment by senior male officers against female workers and that virtually every senior manager has a girlfriend in the bank and they change the ladies at their will to the knowledge of the managers.
She said the bank’s managers also use the female staff to make advances to very rich customers with a view to sleeping with them and getting them to open accounts with the bank to the detriments of the female staffs.
“If you failed to give in to their demands, your life in the bank is made unhappy, uncomfortable and unfriendly to work in”, she added in her writ.
She stated further that even after her National service at the bank, she continued her sex relationship with the married man because he had among other things promised to divorce his wife and marry her because he and the wife were having problems.
She stated in the writ that the man also promised to buy her a ring and to pay for her medical and other Bills including paying for her to undergo a family planning treatment so that she will not give birth in the short term.
She claims he told her to not apply to me employed at the bank although there was that opportunity and that he would finance her upkeep with a monthly amount of GHC3, 000.
She said true to his words, the married banker rented her an apartment, bought her a car valued at GHC120, 000 and was paying her the monthly amount of GHC3, 000 until they started to have disagreements and he stopped his side of the bargain although she was faithfully fulfilling her side of the contract.
According to Deborah, one of the differences she was having with the married banker cum church pastor was that he “wanted to have unnatural carnal knowledge” with her but she refused.
She said the request continued severally and the parties’ differences continued to widen and that there were other similar requests which were not in conformity with societal norms.
Finally they met and decided to bring an end to their relationship.
