Popularly known for playing Nettie in Colour Purple, Akosua Busia is back in the news—and this time, she is chasing her ex husband-movie director-John Singleton for some huge cash she claims the ‘Shaft’ director owes her…
Akosua Busia in a legal document filed in LA Family court claims, her then husband- John Singleton suddenly ditched her because Singleton was due to receive at least five percent of Shaft’s profits of more than $100 million—and he didn’t want her to have any.
But that is not really her central theme for the suit, Busia says, “she’s raising their daughter, Hadar Busia-Singleton
alone in Ghana, and despite a court order, the movie maker won’t budge on paying Hadar’s megabucks tuition from private schools in Ghana, England and Michigan,” report Bossip.
The actress added that “under the terms of their divorce, Singleton was supposed to pay for the girl’s education. But Busia said she had to front the tuition money when he didn’t, and she wants the Boyz In The Hood director to pay her $204,056—the amount she said she’s owed for their daughter’s education and after school activities for the over 12 years—and pay her $30,000 lawyer fees.”
