I was 18. The first thing my mom told me was not to go to the disco in Accra. This was because one of my uncles was hurt because he was at a crowded place where they were drinking, people were fighting, and he was killed by a cutlass that was swung,&#8221; she narrated. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;My mom always tells me not to stay out at night or go to crowded places. If I don&#8217;t have anything to do there, I don&#8217;t go there.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Kisa Gbekle emphasised she took this principle very seriously, stating she had stayed out late only once in 2024.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It was for Sista Afia&#8217;s birthday. I stayed out till about 11 PM or 12 AM,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>She sat with Nana Romeo on Accra 100.5 FM&#8217;s Ayekoo Ayekoo, Thursday, November 21, 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghanaian actress and film producer Kisa Gbekle Actress Kisa Gbekle has disclosed she has never drank alcohol, smoked any substance, or gone to the nightclub before.
