"They prayed for over 30 minutes and I was starving. My mum was also in the kitchen preparing food and my nose was soaking all the aroma. So, I just decided to fall making them think they cast my demons away."

Nana Tornado told Efia Odo that despite being a recalcitrant young person, he regrets what his life has turned into.

The controversial viral personality is mostly known on the internet for his tantrums with several colleagues, including Afia Schwarzenegger.

Nana Tornado established that his life would have turned around should his father had lived longer.

The Tema-based star recently lost his mother, Beatrice Akuorkor Wood.

The late matriarch, who lost her life at the Ridge Hospital in January, was survived by her five children, of which Nana Tornado appears to be the last.

She was buried on March 22, after a solemn funeral service at the Tema Joint Church.

"Tornado u so so right. There are soul beings and soulless beings so like you said some people nothing you go do for them or do them, dey are what dey are. Good or bad. Facts."

@kofitoontoom said:

"Tornado has a stronger argument on the God discussion. The only reason people may struggle to understand him is because our minds have been directed in one way since we had a blank canvas. I call it the tabular rasa syndrome. Once you go through it, it's difficult to back out."
