Ghanaian musician King Promise has firmly rejected suggestions from some members of the public that he should distance himself from socialite Efia Odo.
The “Terminator” hitmaker emphasized the strength of their friendship, which predates his fame in the music industry.
King Promise expressed gratitude for Efia Odo’s unwavering support throughout his musical journey, noting that it would be unwise to end their relationship based on public opinion.
He highlighted that the disapproval of others towards her personality does not justify ending their friendship.
In an interview with YouTuber Kwadwo Sheldon, King Promise addressed questions about his relationship with Efia Odo, with some people speculating that they were romantically involved.
When asked why people had issues with their relationship, he responded calmly, “I don’t know. I’ve asked some of my friends why they don’t like her, but they can’t give me a reason. Maybe it’s because they don’t appreciate her character, but for me, I appreciate her uniqueness.”
He continued, “I’ve known Efia for about eight years, long before I gained fame, and she has always been supportive of everything I do. So why should I abandon my friend just because you don’t like her? Does that make sense? It certainly doesn’t make sense.”
This statement comes after online users advised King Promise to distance himself from Efia Odo due to her public persona.
The pressure increased after King Promise lost the Artiste of the Year award to Stonebwoy at the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA).
Despite the public pressure, King Promise remains steadfast in his appreciation of Efia Odo’s uniqueness and the support she has provided him over the years.
