In her latest interview with Sammy Kay, Akuapem Poloo has detailed what she goes through as a practising Muslim.

It has not been easy. I'm struggling. Now I'm a Muslim, and the religion hates some things. So, it's like I'm stuck.

"When you become a Muslim, nobody will tell you not to do certain things. Immediately you enter the mosque and come out, what you see inside the mosque, nobody will tell you to stop doing certain things."

She added that Islam has also opened doors to revered places for her. Akuapem Poloo said before she became a Muslim, she could not meet some prominent people in Ghana.
