Award-winning Ghanaian Gospel musician Empress Gifty shared her worries about the rise in young girls who are drawn to married guys.

The heartbreaking news that a married police officer had killed his 26-year-old partner served as the impetus for her remarks.

Empress Gifty wondered whether having sex with a married man is any different from having sex with a partner and why young ladies are so drawn to married men.

“I want to ask if sex with married men is different. How does it feel like? Is it different from the ones you have with your boyfriends’? she asked during a Facebook live video.

But she firmly discouraged women from having these relationships with married men. She forewarned that these men would develop obsessive and insecure tendencies, which could eventually result in violence and even murder.

“If the insecurities start, it’s either they shoot or poison you. He will poison you to death. Anyone who dates a married man should be careful. It’s okay, whatever you have gained is enough. Pack and leave. Unless you tie him down somewhere or use charms on him. He will never leave his wife.

“The first sign to look out for is insecurities. When you start seeing that, leave! The second sign is that he will get abusive. He will start beating you in public and embarrassing you in front of your friends,” she stated.

The gospel singer cautioned ladies against dating married guys and encouraged them to exercise caution. She also cautioned against expecting such relationships to end in marriage.

Empress Gifty urged ladies to break off a relationship with a married guy if he starts acting irrationally or abusively.

Empress Gifty counseled ladies who were already in such relationships to be cautious and go carefully.

She advised fasting and prayer as a first step, pleading with God to assist the married guy in turning away from them. She also counseled women against having sexual relations with the married man.

Empress Gifty ultimately wants young women to value themselves and stay away from partnerships that are not beneficial to them.
