MzBel vows never to entertain Iona Reine
Ghanaian music diva, Belinda Nana Ekua Amoah, known in showbiz as Mzbel has stated that she will never entertain or engage in any form of activity with her ex-friend and colleague, Iona Reine.
It will be recalled that Iona parted ways with Mzbel’s record label and established a strong bond with her nemesis, Afia Schwarzenegger, a situation that caused a stir on social media. Explaining their fallout at that time, Mzbel among other things revealed, Iona, who lived in her house, made their personal matters public, hence her decision to let her go.
However, Iona in an exclusive interview with Akwasi Aboagye. on Peace FM in 2023, apologized to the ‘Yopoo’ hitmaker, asserting that she had realized that it is in the best interest of humans to live at peace with each other, particularly, now that people are dying at a fast rate. This came in the wake of news of her repentance and re-dedicating her life to God.
“I have learnt a lot of things within these past three years. It’s not my wish to have any problem with anybody and I’ll use your platform to reach out to her and say that I wish that we do not have any problem. I want to see her on the street and say hello to her without feeling bad. She should forgive me if she has anything against me. I ask that she should forgive me. If she is listening, whatever problems we have, she should forgive me.
“Nowadays, people die anyhow, so if you have issues with someone, it doesn’t help. I want us to live in peace and I don’t continue living with that burden on my conscience,” she said.
A year after, Mzbel in a recent interview with Fiifi Pratt on Accra-based Kingdom FM averred that though she has forgiven her ex-friend from the bottom of her heart, there is no way she will entertain her (Iona) anywhere closer to her.
Asked if she has an idea of Iona’s marriage, the Tv host said; ‘Naa I don’t know about her marriage. Seriously…I wouldn’t have attended if she had invited me too. In my heart, I have forgiven her but I have to be careful and vigilant.
