Nana, who is a mother of three, revealed that she is recovering from alcoholism and it took her 19 years to do so. She had to quit alcohol so as to get her life back on track.
While speaking in NTV’s famous comedy show Churchill, the 40year old disclosed that there was a time she could drink a whole crate of beer or a ‘Mzinga’ of hard liquor without stopping.
After finally being able to quit drinking, she said she lost so many of her friends on the way.
