Afua Asantewaa Aduonum, the young Ghanaian lady who recently completed an attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the longest singing marathon, has hit back at critics over comments she made in an interview.

During the interview with IB Ben Bako, Afua Asantewaa recounted when she received a surprise visit from popular Ghanaian musician, Kuami Eugene. Whom she described as her “crush”.

She joked that he made her forget some of her lyrics and that he would be to blame if she did not get the record.

She however clarified that her husband knew about her crush and that it was not a serious issue.

Her comments, however, sparked a debate on social media, with some people criticizing her for having a crush as a married woman.

"Aaaw, jokes turn bitter pills. Husby sef his crush is Omotola (honey will say ah bebe). Don’t give yourselves a headache, wai na life is too short. Wear Ghana, Eat Ghana, and Tour Ghana to know Ghana," Afua wrote.
