Actress
Yvonne Okoro has reacted to claims that her sister Rosaline Okoro who is a finalist
for this year’s Miss Ghana 2012 beauty pageant is not Ghanaian enough.
GhanaCelebrities.com
wrote that her sister is not and cannot win the Miss Ghana 2012 because her
both parents are not Ghanaian. With Ghanaian mother and Nigerian father, Yvonne
said they were both born and breed in Ghana and have Ghanaian passports.
“We have Ghanaian passports. We have lived all
our lives in Ghana, we were born here. Roseline was born at the Police Hospital and
I was born at the Ridge Hospital. We speak Twi and we are Fantis. So what is
the problem? It was unfair for the writer to speak in the voice of Ghanaians by
saying ‘the true Ghanaians will erupt in anger to defend what is rightly
theirs’ if Roseline wins Miss Ghana. Who appointed him the voice of Ghana? It is
such people that divide Ghanaians, it’s wrong to do that!”
