I haven’t given up on Love, Just Slowing Down – Efia Odo
Ghanaian actress and social media personality, Efia Odo has expressed her views on love and relationships, affirming that she has not lost hope in finding love.
Following a series of unsuccessful relationships, the socialite, via social media, declared her decision to refrain from romantic engagements with men. Nevertheless, during an interview on 3FM Lounge on Wednesday, August 14, Efia disclosed that she has now opted to be more discerning in her choice of partners and in embarking on new relationships.
“It’s not like I have given up on love, like right now I am taking my time. Before, I used to wear my heart on my sleeves, now I wear it in my jeans. When I love, its overwhelming for the wrong person so I want to really take my time to scope out any guy who says they are interested in me.
“My name is Efia Odo, I am love and I give out love and can’t give up on love so I am taking it slow,” she stated.
The actress, who is known in private life as Andrea Owusu, went on to assert that that she finds certain aspects of Ghanaian men to be peculiar, as she had initially been hopeful about discovering love and a genuine relationship upon her arrival in Ghana some years back.

She also acknowledged that she may contribute to her romantic challenges due to her intense capacity for love..
However, Efia Odo has now prioritized self-love and is selective about whom she allows into her heart.
“The guys here, I don’t know. There’s something because I came into this country optimistic, full of love and altruistic but the system here will change your way of thinking and way of being because it’s just different.
“Me, I can meet you today and I will do everything for you because I feel like that is how we all should be as human beings. We should be loving and supporting each other, but I have to come to learn that first of all when you love yourself, you don’t allow people to love you the way they should,” she said.
