Ghanaian actress Janet Ackom, known affectionately as Mama Jane has opened up about her complex and significant past relationship with the late renowned actor Asonaba Kwaku Darko, better known as Super OD.
During an interview with Akosua High Tension on Atinka FM's Efisem program, she detailed their decade-long relationship and shared insights into their deep connection.
Mama Jane revealed that their relationship began under troubling circumstances. She recounted how their first encounter took an unexpected and non-consensual turn at a hotel when she was just 21 years old.
She explained that the late Super OD had allegedly spiked her drink, which led to her losing consciousness and him being intimate with her without her consent.
