"I came here with a nine-year-old Toyota RAV4. If I were dating Mahama and had a child with him, would I be driving this car? Even Mahama's children won't drive a car like mine, talk less of a baby mama."

"Sometimes the people who make those claims do not think well. How can I date the most influential person in Ghana and be using a car that is nine years old?" she quipped.
