Who is Dr. Kofi Amoa-Abban’s wife?
Admirers of the businessman became concerned about his love life a few months after he gained fame in the Ghanaian media space.
In 2020, the oil and gas guru was rumored to be dating Tv personality, Nana Aba Anamoah, after one Facebook user, Samuel Amaning, dropped the allegation. Neither the two came out to confirm or deny this rumor about them, however, it faded away as it turned out to be false.
Prior to the Nana Aba and Kofi Abban alleged relationship, the businessman was rumored to be ready to settle down with his longtime girlfriend.

So, who is Dr. Kofi Abban’s wife? The CEO of the company RIGWORLD Training Centre, Dr. Kofi Amoa-Abban, is reportedly married to his fianceé Dr. Grace Agyeiwaa Baffoe. Dr. Kofi Abban and Dr. Grace held their engagement ceremony on Saturday, December 29th, 2018 at a private ceremony in Trasacco. Their white wedding followed shortly in 2019.
Per Ghana Celebrities who confirmed the news, Dr. Amoa-Abban composed a song for his wife which was allegedly played during their wedding ceremony. The song titled “Grace” by Ghanaian musical group Keche has garnered over 8K views on YouTube at the time of this article.

Does Dr. Kofi Abban have kids?
There have been no reports about Dr. Kofi Abban being a father. Hence, it is assumed that he has no children at the moment.
However, since he loves to keep his personal life private, he could be a father with kids (with his wife or maybe from his previous relationships) but loves to keep his family away from the media.
And to anyone who ever thought the winner at the Season 10 of Talented Kidz, Nakeeyat Dramani Sam is the daughter of the rich man, you are wrong.
The only relationship between the young poet and Dr. Kofi Abban is that the rich man promised to give her a scholarship after she became victorious in the kids’ reality show.
The Oil and Gas entrepreneur and philanthropist, Dr Kofi Abban, who was in awe of the little girl’s potential promised her a lifetime scholarship.
Nakeeyat, however, explained in her interview with Deloris Frimpong Manso that after various visits to his office with her parents, she was convinced that the businessman did not stand by his word.
The little girl appears undisturbed by the unfortunate turn of events as she is currently on a scholarship at the Royals School located at Adenta in Accra.
Nakeeyat added that her scholarship runs till her Tertiary level education.
Upon emerging the winner of the 10th season of the famous Talented Kids Show, Nakeeyat took home a 10,000-cedi cash prize, a 15,000-cedi educational fund, an all-expenses-paid trip to the UK, as well as souvenirs from sponsors.
Meanwhile, since 2019, Nakeeyat has been the ambassador for Sanitation and Water Resources championing the fight for good sanitation in the country.
