Speaking with Delay, the popular TikToker disclosed that her parents had eight children and had very little money to take care of them.

She said on many occasions, they had no money in the house and had to rely on her father, a farmer, bringing produce from the farm to find a way to eat.

"Life was tough financially; most times, the only money at home was just 1 Ghana Cedi, which we would use to buy pepper and cook some cassava because my dad is a farmer, so we had cassava," she said.

Ama Yeboah added that during her school days, she was forced to go out and sell banku with her siblings to make some money before her parents would get some money for her to take to school.

Both Ama Yeboah and Obolo recounted numerous difficult scenarios to illustrate the desperate poverty they went through before she became a star.

The TikToker said she started creating content around 2023 and initially struggled to gain traction until she added Obolo.

“I started creating content in 2023, but it wasn’t working. I told myself I would keep trying. After a while, I added my mom, and I saw a difference. People started commenting that they loved her, so I recruited her full-time,” she said.
