She said that Mr Kwabena Sarpong, a real estate mogul, approached her with the idea of starting Eats Avenue after recognising her interest in cooking.

Efia Odo explained that after several discussions, she agreed to partner with the Ridge Condos CEO to set up the restaurant and become its co-owner.

The socialite noted that Mr Kwabena Sarpong gave her an apartment in the same building as the restaurant so that she could easily oversee the business's daily operations.

She said she was fully dedicated to the restaurant and involved in every department as a co-owner, shareholder, and manager until fake rumours behind the scenes forced her to leave.

Efia said that some naysayers and mischievous individuals created fake dating rumours between her and her business partner.

She noted that the rumours angered her because she greatly respected Mr Sarpong, whom she saw as an uncle, and never considered having an affair with him. The socialite said the fake rumours also affected some of her romantic relationships.

She said:

"Mr Sarpong started hearing the rumours about the whole fake relationship. We were very platonic and I saw him as an uncle but the rumours and hearsay were some of the factors that ended up to where we are now. That is why I had to take myself out of the equation physically with Eats Avenue and say that I am no longer affiliated with them because it was too much going on."

Efia Odo added that she felt hurt that people thought she was only involved in the business because of an affair with the co-owner and not because of her hard work and contributions.
