Veteran Ghanaian actress and TV personality Grace Omaboe, popularly known as Maame Dokono, has addressed rumours about her past and a relationship with the late former President Jerry John Rawlings.
At an event at the Silverbird Cinemas in Accra on July 30, 2024, the ‘By the Fireside’ star firmly denied rumours that she was ever the girlfriend of the former President.
"Some said they heard that I was the girlfriend of President Rawlings. Who is that person? Ah. I was never the girlfriend of President Rawlings," she clarified.
She also recounted her political journey, revealing that it was Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings who introduced her to politics, describing the ordeals she went through as a result of her involvement in politics.
"Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings dragged me into politics. I joined both parties and if your party doesn't win, you suffer and I really suffered for it. So I left politics," she explained.
She said this at an event to celebrate her 80th birthday and her 60-year career in the Ghanaian movie industry.
Maame Dokono also announced the launch of her new book on August 7, 2024.
The book will cover various aspects of her life, including delivering all six of her children via C-section, her experiences with Nana Konadu Agyemang Rawlings, and her time in the movie industry, among other topics.
