Former Ghana International Odartey Lamptey has won back his East Legon mansion from his ex wife.
The former Stars goalscorer had been renting for the past 9 years ever since his bitter divorce from Gloria Appiah in 2013.
Lamptey parted with his wife after discovering neither of their three children was actually his.
Their divorce settlement caused a ruckus as Odartey was ordered to give Gloria Ghc400,000 and his five-bedroom house in Dome.
Miss Gloria insisted she wanted the East Legon mansion Odartey Lamptey purchased for $100,000 in 1999.
She continued living in that mansion throughout the divorce whilst the former footballer had to resort to renting.
Gloria has been fighting to gain legal custody of the house since 2017 but has lost all her appeals.
She lost her final appeal last month and has now vacated the premises.
The Accra Court finally ruled that Mr Lamptey can take possession of his house tomorrow. Lamptey has been renting since 2014 after the wife sued to claim the house following their divorce.
Odartey will move into the seven-bedroom mansion on Tuesday, April 5th.
Odartey Lamptey speaking on Angel TV he said;
“This is a house I bought for $100,000 around 1998/1999 while playing in Germany so you can imagine. I was given one hour to leave the house when my ex wife filed for divorce. I’m extremely happy at this new ruling”
