The father or baby daddy of her first child Kwaku Danso, is a known former Kumasi Asante Kotoko football player and member of the 2014 Ghana’s local Blackstars team by the name, Yahaya Mohammed.
The baby daddy of her daughter Nana Akua Nhyira Maame, has long been alleged and rumoured to be former President John Dramani Mahama because of her association with him and his political party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
![Tracey Boakye husband and baby daddy of her daughter, Dr Kwaku Oteng and John Dramani Mahama.](https://i0.wp.com/www.biegyanation.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/Tracey-Boakye-husband-Dr-Kwaku-Oteng-John-Mahama.jpg?resize=800%2C445&ssl=1)
Tracey has, however, categorically and vehemently debunked the rumour that former president John Mahama is the baby daddy of her daughter since their relationship is political and not an amorous one.
The next person alleged to be the bankroller and baby daddy of Tracey Boakye’s daughter, is Ghanaian millionaire and CEO of Angel Group of Companies, Dr Kwaku Oteng.
On November 9th, 2020, an audio that circulated on social media had Stonebwoy’s aide, Ayisha Modi — whose response to Afia Schwarzenegger’s insults — claimed that it was the same loudmouthed Afia Schwarzenegger who informed her (Ayisha Modi) that she (Afia Schwar) and Tracey Boakye intentionally duped ex-president John Mahama with the baby when they knew Dr Kwaku Oteng was the baby daddy of Nana Akua Nhyira.
Tracey Boakye has, however, rubbished Ayisha Modi’s claim that Dr Kwaku Oteng is her bankroller and the father of her daughter, Nana Akua Nhyira.

In the run up to the 2020 Ghana Presidential and Parliamentary elections, Member of Parliament for Assin Fosu Central, Kennedy Agyapong made some wild allegations against Tracey Boakye whilst on a New Patriotic Party (NPP) campaign platform.
According to the loudmouthed lawmaker, who was on an NPP campaign platform at Achiase in the Eastern Region of Ghana, former president and then NDC’s flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama traveled to Dubai to chill with his girlfriends and even bought a cheap house for Kumawood actress, Tracey Boakye.

Tracey Boakye vs Mzbel: ‘Papa No’ controversy
On December 5th, 2020 — with some hours to the December 7, 2020, Presidential & Parliamentary Elections — an audio conversation between Tracey Boakye and her rival Mzbel, fighting over ‘Papa No’ popped up.
According to the contents of the audio, Tracey Boakye accused Mzbel of intentionally destroying her to “Papa No” — who according to the audio was identified as former president John Dramani Mahama.
One damning allegation in the audio made by Tracey was that, Mzbel sent a text to Mr John Dramani Mahama, requesting to also sleep with him.
Tracey Boakye later claimed that the audio had been doctored, and that if the New Patriotic Party (NPP) did not have any message for the people of Ghana, they should not use her to win the election.
Gloria Kani reveals more secrets about Tracey Boakye & John Dramani Mahama relationship
In 2020, Kumawood actress-turned-evangelist and former best friend of Tracey Boakye, Gloria Kani came out strongly to defend an earlier claim she made about an alleged amorous relationship between Tracey Boakye and former president John Dramani Mahama.
In the said claim, Gloria Kani in an Instagram live streaming alleged that Tracey Boakye and former President John Dramani Mahama had been seeing eachother.
She further alleged that Tracey intentionally blackmailed John Dramani Mahama to get all the properties she currently has.
Gloria Kani therefore called on the former President to run a DNA test on Tracey’s daughter because she knew the promiscuous Tracey Boakye was sleeping with other men — one in South Africa and another in the USA — whilst she was going out with him (John Mahama).
In her recent defence, Gloria Kani maintained that everything she said during her Instagram live streaming, was the truth and, as a result, did not owe anyone an apology by saying the truth.
Net Worth, Source of Income
Until her confession in a live Instagram session (video) that, it was her sugar daddy with many women, who actually bought her the mansions and cars she currently owns, Tracey Boakye had, for a long time, been projected as a hardworking woman who had made it on her own, and not by any other person.
