A young nurse, Esther Onsonyameye, has shared how she was deceived by a man she believed to be a soldier, only to later discover that he was actually polishes shoes at Burma Camp for a living.
This information was shared in a Facebook post by Crime Check Ghana on Wednesday, October 15, 2025.
According to the post, Esther said she had always dreamed of marrying a soldier and so when she met Frank Anaab on social media dressed in military uniform, she believed her dream had finally come true.
Their relationship quickly blossomed, and for a year, she thought she was dating a real soldier.

“I bought assorted provisions, a mosquito net, bedsheets, and other items to make him comfortable at his camp, not knowing he was a fake soldier. He deceived me,” the post read.
Esther explained that Frank often spent nights with her but would leave in the evenings, claiming he was going to work at the barracks.
His routine, she added, convinced her that he was indeed a member of the Ghana Armed Forces.

However, things took a dramatic turn when Esther posted his photos on social media, shortly after which she was contacted by about four other women who also claimed to be Frank’s girlfriends.
Shocked and heartbroken, Esther decided to team up with the other women to confront him.
Their confrontation led to the shocking discovery that Frank was not a soldier.
“Esther said she then teamed up with the other ladies to teach Frank a lesson which led to the shocking discovery that he was a ‘shoe shiner’ at Burma Camp but not a soldier.
“The nurse said it was confirmed during an interrogation she masterminded, that her infamous boyfriend could not mention his unit number and other details,” the post added.
She said Frank took monies from her, promising to pay back when his salary is paid him.
She added that it was a ploy to get money from her and it is the same strategy he used to make money from the other ladies he had dated.
