Afia Asantewaa details reason for marrying Aduonum
In a video from an interview on Lorlor TV, Afua Asantewaa, who was questioned about what her husband told her that triggered her to accept her proposal, stated that love usually fades; however, she looked beyond love.
According to the influencer, she wanted someone who was a friend so that when her love fades, their friendship could maintain the steeze.
“Love usually fades, but if you liked the person as a friend before marriage, when you feel your love has faded, the friendship keeps you together. At the time, I didn't have any friends, but Kofi Aduonum was there. He was a close pal, so I felt he was the right person,” he said.
Afia Asantewaa further added that he was ready to support her dreams and showed that he would be a supportive partner.
“My dreams and aspirations were his priorities. Concerning my studies at the Ghana Institute of Journalism GIJ now UNIMAC, I told him about my wish to be a journalist, and he said it was possible. The kind gesture made me know that he would be a supportive husband,” he added.
The narration from Afua Asantewaa has sparked massive reactions on social media as Ghanaians have flooded the comments section to share their opinions.
