Ghanaian actress Adwoa Smart, born Belinda Naa Ode Oku, shared details about her personal life in an interview on Accra 100.5 FM’s Ayekoo Ayekoo show with Nana Romeo.

She said, “Dating is not part of her plans at the moment.”

Adwoa said she wants to focus on important things in life before considering relationships.

“You only get into these things after sorting out critical matters,” she added.

She clarified that while she is not a virgin, she is not promiscuous either.

“My mind is on more important things,” she said. Adwoa also shared her frustration with modern relationships, saying, “You might start dating only to find out your partner is already married. That’s why I avoid these things.”

Adwoa admitted she gets regular attention from men, “by God’s grace,” and many of them are “great men,” but she prefers to be cautious. “In God’s time, I will give someone a chance,” she said.

Although she has never been married, Adwoa mentioned she has been a mother before and reflected on her past experiences.

Naana Donkor Arthur, popularly known as NDA, has advised that anyone over 40 who is thinking of traveling abroad for greener pastures should reconsider his/her decision.

According to the Ghanaian content creator based in the United States, people above 40 often lack the stamina to endure the rigorous demands of working long hours in foreign countries.

“It becomes increasingly challenging to keep up with the workload abroad, especially for those who are unfamiliar with the high-pressure environment,” she explained.

Instead, Naana Donkor Arthur urged people in this age range to concentrate on improving their own prospects in Ghana.

Instead of experiencing the difficulties of “starting over” overseas, she underlined the value of using their current networks, resources, and talents to better their lives locally.

“At 40 and above, you should be focusing on creating stability, building wealth, and leaving a legacy in your own country. Relocating to hustle in a foreign land at that age may not yield the outcomes you expect. If you travel abroad in your 20s or early 30s, you have better chance at succeeding that traveling in your 40s” she added.
