Serwaa Akoto has revealed that she has not seen her father in 14 years and this caused the death of her grandfather.
Speaking with DJ Nyaami on SVTV Africa, Serwaa stated that her father left home in search of greener pastures but has not returned yet. She added that they have tried looking for him but his friends are unable to tell his exact location.
“My father left to hustle when my brother was a year old. Now he is 14 years. We have asked his friends and family but to no avail. Our uncle keeps telling us that he is in Libya and will come back when things are better for him but he never calls us.
His father died three years as a result of his absence. My grandfather said he does not feel my father’s presence anymore,” she said.
Presently, Serwaa sells oranges and has been doing this for nine years in Tema. She hopes to learn a trade and set up a beauty shop later.
“I have asked around for a beauty training centre. I’m just preparing towards the payment then I begin,” Serwaa added.
