For several months, the teacher was accused by his pupil and her grandmother of being responsible for the pregnancy. Following a report by the grandmother, the teacher was arrested, and the case was processed in court at Kade and Asamankese in the Eastern Region. Both families later agreed to settle the matter privately. The pupil's family demanded GHS 20,000 from the teacher. Dwamena, still not settled over the allegations, brought the case to Kumasi based Oyerepa FM's Oyere Afutuo programme, where a DNA test confirmed that the teacher is not the biological father of the child.
