Renowned Ghanaian actress, Gloria Sarfo has recounted the adverse effect the Liberian war had on her lovely family.
According to her, the issues in her family started when her father went on a peacekeeping mission in Liberia.
She made this known in a recent interview with Stacy Amoateng on Restoration and in her submission, she said;
“We had a good time growing up as kids but it got to a point my father went for the very first Liberian war. That was very tough moment for us because we heard a lot of things happening over there… Their time was prolonged and almost everybody who had a father there always lived in fear.
The very first night he arrived, he got hurt. The fridge door hit his leg. It was a huge pain; it was serious. We were just surprised. He was hospitalized.
From there, things became a bit tough. Going to school was a problem. We were six, we had other family members with us so it was really tough. It got to a point there was nobody to turn to.
‘My parents divorced at a time when my father was almost retiring. He said he was going to build in his village.
I had started appearing on TV. It was really tough. If I were stubborn at the time, I’d have been worse because as a woman, I was mushrooming. There were so many temptations that came my way but I just had to be tough.
But I used to do a lot of things. Anything I could find my hands on, I tried to do it. At that time, I had started doing voiceover so whatever I made from it had to come home. When I’m called for a gig, I already have a budget because I had a family to feed. I took care of the family for quite a number of years.”
