As a staunch fan, she said there were times when she would pray that he would score three goals or he would be the only person to score a goal, which often became true.

"I did not allow my firstborn son to attend the senior high school he was given by the computerised system. I made him attend Accra Academy because that was Gyan's alma mater," she said in the video.

She added that her son would alert her whenever the former Sunderland attacker visited Accra Academy. She said she would pay ridiculous taxi fares just to make it on time to see him, but unfortunately, she always arrived late.
