The Fourth Parliament of the Republic of Ghana had Peter Ala Adjetey as the deputy speaker. He took over the position from Justice D.F. Annan.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">&#8211;  &#8211;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>The actress and filmmaker has succeeded in turning the internet on its axis after the expos\u00e9 packed in her I Am Not Yvonne Nelson book sparked a plethora of comments dissecting all the juicy doses the book oozed. <\/p>\n<p>A fragment of the controversial book saw Yvonne Nelson say that it took her almost five years to start looking into the truth about who her biological father was after her mother, Margaret Gaddy informed her that Mr Nelson was not her father. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe encouragement and advice of former President Kufuor had calmed and lulled me into thinking I could forget about the shocking revelation from my mother and move on with my life. <\/p>\n<p>However, the urge to know who my father truly was became an unavoidable, perennial visitor to my mind. Whenever it came around, it took hold of my being and made me restless. <\/p>\n<p>It filled me with doubts and questions that needed to be put to rest. What often stood out on those occasions was the question about whether my mother could lie to me again. What motivation would she have to tell me about a second man being my father if it wasn\u2019t true?\u201d part of the book reads.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-350207\"  data-lazy- src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/f9a8aa214afbe5f4.webp.webp\"\/><noscript><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/f9a8aa214afbe5f4.webp.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-350207\"  \/><\/noscript><\/figure>\n<p>After hearing that the late, revered Speaker of Parliament, Peter Ala Adjetey, was rumoured to be her biological father, Yvonne Nelson said she contacted Kiki Banson to get Peter Ala Adjetey\u2019s firstborn child, Gabby Adjetey\u2019s, phone number.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"td-adspot-title\">&#8211;  &#8211;<\/span><br \/>\n<!-- ResponsiveAll --><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI knew he will have Gabby\u2019s contact because Kiki was (and still is) a big name and well-connected figure in Ghana\u2019s entertainment industry. Gabby Adjetey, who is now in London, once worked with Joy FM, so I was certain Kiki would have his number. Kiki expressed his shock when I told him the story and why I needed Gabby\u2019s number. <\/p>\n<p>I, however, told him it was classified information, and he promised to keep it as such. \u201cTwo days after getting his number, I set up a video call with Gabby. At that point, I had become conscious of the never-ending drama, so I decided to document my search. <\/p>\n<p>I set up a camera and recorded myself making the call in what was to be my first encounter with my real father\u2019s child. I didn\u2019t have to struggle to introduce myself because Gabby knew who I was. What he did not know and would not have imagined was what I was about to tell him, that 1 was his sister.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>She asserts that she has been clear with the major NPP leader that all she wants to know is who her biological father is. The actress was finally persuaded to put an end to her self-doubt via a DNA test. She was indeed Peter Ala Adjetey\u2019s biological daughter, according to the DNA results.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><!-- WP QUADS Content Ad Plugin v. 2.0.71 --><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8211; &#8211; Actress Yvonne Nelson has disclosed in her memoir that her biological father was the late New Patriotic Party (NPP) member Peter Ala Adjetey.
