Actress, model, and Ghanaian socialite, Andrea Owusu famed as Efia Odo has reacted to the sudden death of Macho Kaaka, a #FixTheCountry protester.
In a new video sighted by YEN.com.gh on Instagram, Efia Odo was seen in a very reflective mood as she spoke about the incident.
She asked if other protesters like herself had to start fearing for their lives due to the unfortunate situation.
Efia Odo quizzed if it was now wrong for a well-meaning Ghanaian to decide to speak up over injustice and ask for the right thing to be done.
"You can't even speak up now because you might lose your life. Should I be afraid?" the actress who was almost in tears said.
Efia Odo, one of the pioneers of the #FixTheCountry wave has been active in the activities of the movement ever since they started trending.

They were however released hours after they were picked up and they maintained that they were not going to give up until their demands were met.
#FixTheCountry campaigners have for some time now been in and out of court with state machinery over their planned demonstration which keeps hitting a snag.
