Efya Nokturnal, an award-winning Ghanaian musician and performer, has claimed to have witchcraft powers due to her affinity for the color black.<\/strong><\/h2>\nThe eclectic songbird, born Jane Fara Fauzzier Afia Boafowaa Yahaya Awindor, openly admitted to loving the color black when asked by Joy Prime host Doreen Avis what her favorite color was.<\/p>\n
The \u2018Until The Dawn\u2019 singer explained why she believes she is a witch by saying her love of the color black made her feel that way.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhy not black though?? I feel like it blends with every other colour. You can wear black shoes and a red dress and it\u2019s still popping\u201d Efya who wore a yellow open cleavage dress explained<\/p>\n
– –<\/span><\/p>\n\u201cI think black is something that fits most of the time. Also, I like it because you know I\u2019m a witch,\u201d<\/p>\n
In Ghana, the color black is considered a bad omen or is associated with mourning the dead.<\/p>\n
Despite the color\u2019s semiotics, Efya stated that she would not mind wearing black as an alternative color for her wedding.<\/p>\n

According to Efya, 35, working at night ignited her interest in the colour black and darkness which has became her signature aesthetic and also inspired her twitter handle, @Efya_Nokturnal.<\/p>\n
– –<\/span>
\n<\/p>\n\u201cI have insomnia, I don\u2019t really sleep at night and it\u2019s been like that for a very long time. So, I figured I might as well make it cool because I\u2019m a very Nocturnal being and I come alive at night. Most of the time I like to work late at night because it\u2019s quiet and there\u2019s a different energy,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
Efya has promised new music soon after returning from a lengthy hiatus from releasing albums and mixtapes.<\/p>\n
She has also won the VGMA Best Female Vocalist of the Year award five times. Nana Adwoa Awindor, a Ghanaian filmmaker, is Efya\u2019s father.<\/p>\n
