The father who spoke without dropping a tear, hid his pain and even managed to spare a smile while talking about his baby girl saying, “a good writer, so loving and caring. So amazing. What do I have to say? I am confused here but trust me Ohemaa was Ohemaa. The titled bestowed on her was her personality.”
Ebony was expected to tour Europe and was set to leave the country on Saturday 10th February to begin her tour.
He noted, “She was leaving on the 10th. I have her visa in my room as I speak. She was leaving on the 10th for Belgium, touring Europe for the first time. On the 10th she was leaving,” he said and with a heavy sigh full of sadness added,” That is the case”.
Nana Poku was optimistic his daughter had what it takes to win the biggest award at the upcoming Vodafone Music Awards.
“The hits, her latest songs could have made her the best. So, I was not doubting the fact that she was going to be the best. I believe strongly that she was going to win the supreme award. I knew she was going to win.
