She said the Awindor that everyone knew was not her real father\u2019s name but her step fathers\u2019. She said she was raised by Mr. Awindor and her mother until age 23 when her mother told her to come and meet her real father.<\/p>\n<p>Asked how she felt when she met him, Efya said she felt normal, but had a lot of questions for her father as to why he was back now and what role exactly he wanted to play in her life, owing to the fact that she was already grown and even working.<\/p>\n<p>According to the \u201cUntil the Dawn\u201d crooner, she asked that they begin their relationship as friends instead of father-daughter because she already has a father (Mr. Awindor).<\/p>\n<p>Delay went further to ask her if she found out why he (the father) left to which she replied: \u201cyes I asked him, work, money, he was young, he was scared. My granny was a Full Gospel Business Fellowship man, he was also a headmaster, you have impregnated his daughter, you will marry her, so I think that scared him, the commitment to marry at that age was too much for him so he run away\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/plugins\/video.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FGhanaHomePage%2Fvideos%2F1647107568699968%2F&amp;show_text=0&amp;width=560\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" style=\"border:none;overflow:hidden\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 31 updated by: 31 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Entertainment of Monday, 25 September 2017 Source: www.ghanaweb.com 2017-09-25 play videoEfya &#13; Jane Fara Fauzzier Afia Boafowaa Yahaya Awindor, better known by her stage name Efya has disclosed on the Delay Show that she met her real father when she was 23 years old.
