Budding Sista Afia, a female artist from Ghana, revealed that before moving to Ghana to pursue a career in music, she was a registered nurse abroad.
The singer claimed that prejudice she encountered while working at a hospital caused her distress. She, however, left everything behind when she realized how much she loved music and traveled to Ghana, her native country.

When I finally made it through my former boss, Aaron in London, he liked my talent and said I needed to record a song because there was so much racism at my place of employment that I was not very enthusiastic to go to work. I recorded “Krokro No,” and he suggested that I visit Ghana to film the music video. The song was already getting a lot of attention when I arrived to film the video.”
