Ghanaian Businessman Richard Nii Armah Quaye (RNAQ) has said Mona Faiz Montrage, popularly known as Hajia4Real, a Ghanaian socialite-turned-musician, is not his concubine.
According to court documents, RNAQ denied having an amorous affair with Hajia4real, arguing that the Ghanaian socialite is only a friend.
RNAQ’s comment follows his ex-wife, Joana Quaye, who raised concerns about their children’s exposure to social media and the role Hajia4real plays in their lives.
He further dismissed the allegation that Hajia4real is a bad influence on their children, dismissing the allegation as false, misleading and a factual inaccuracy, stressing that he cannot be said to have a concubine as an unmarried man.
In court, the counsel for Mrs Joana Quaye, the former wife of businessman Richard Nii Armah Quaye (RNAQ), has filed an application for an order compelling payment of maintenance and variation of the custody and access to the children granted to RNAQ by the court.
According to reports, the application resulted in a fierce examination of the lifestyle of his well-known concubine, Mona Montrage, aka Hajia 4 Real, during proceedings at the High Court, Accra, on Tuesday, 2nd June, 2026.
In an application filed on behalf of Mrs Joana Quaye on 21st May, 2026, by her lawyers, Dame & Partners, Mrs Quaye prayed the High Court to vary the custody orders given by the court in its judgment by limiting custody and access given to RNAQ every fortnight to one weekend per month.
She sought the High Court to prevent “a concubine of the Respondent, Mona Montrage aka Hajia4Real, from having access to the children of the children”. She finally applied for an order compelling RNAQ to pay the paltry sum of GHC5,000 awarded by the Court as maintenance for the three children since he has not been paying in accordance with the orders of the court.
Arguing the application, counsel for Mrs Joana Quaye told the court that the grant of fortnightly access to the RNAQ exposes the children to unnecessary moral and social hazards. He explained that due to his busy schedule, RNAQ is virtually unavailable whenever he has custody of the children and consequently hands over the care and supervision of the children to Hajia For Real. Mr Dame referred to an exhibit filed by Mrs Quaye in court to prove that Mona Montrage (Hajia 4 Real) is an ex-convict, having been convicted of fraud and a romance scam in the United States of America as recently as 2024.
Hajia4Real’s lifestyle and the living arrangements at the Trassacco house, which, according to counsel, expose the children to harmful influences, including moral degradation, exposure to criminal tendencies, lack of proper role modelling, psychological harm, social stigma, and potential endangerment of their physical and emotional well-being.
In the view of Mr Dame, the presence of a person who has recently been convicted of fraud and romance scams in the children’s immediate environment and her responsibility for a part of their upbringing create an unsafe and unstable atmosphere that is not conducive to the proper upbringing and development of Mrs Quaye’s children.
Mr Dame noted that, in Hajia4Real’s overzealous effort to show the public that she is “bonding” with my children, she frequently takes videos, including some explicit ones, with the children and posts them on social media, exposing them to various dangers.
He stated that numerous videos and pictures uploaded by RNAQ and Hajia For Real on the internet, TikTok and YouTube, some of which Mrs Quaye had filed in court, show that the two are intentionally using the custody arrangements to portray a false pretence to the public that they are a caring and responsible couple when in reality RNAQ is not present or available to the children.
It was therefore important that access by RNAQ and Hajia 4 Real to the children be reduced by the Court until such time that RNAQ can have a better family environment, so as to minimise the children’s exposure to the morally depraved acts and undesirable influence of Hajia4Real.
