Popular Ghanaian actress, Martha Ankomah has opened up on the most difficult moment in her life when growing up in a recent interview.

According to her, growing up with a single mother who struggled to make ends meet was really a challenge.

“It wasn’t easy. You have to help your Mother. You just needed to be a good girl to help your mom-you have to be self-discipline so when she asks you to carry something on your head to go and sell, you don’t have to shout or say you’re shy. You just have to do it because you know you’re helping your family,” she said.

Martha, who was the first child of her parents, said those difficult moments strengthened her—to strive for success and did not allowed peer pressure to divert her attention.

“And me being the first born I had no choice than to help and I thank God so much that I didn’t go wayward- I didn’t end up as a bad girl during those trying moments. I just realized that it was an opportunity to learn the hard way of life and it has really helped me, though it was difficult at the beginning but God being so good something good came out of it.

The actress who is nicknamed “Blood of Jesus” due to her high Christian beliefs—disclosed how she began her acting career.

“I was introduced into acting by a cousin at a very tender age. This cousin of mine called Harry Amonoo took me to the National Theatre in 1994 there about where I joined the Harrisco Drama Group and started stage drama in Funworld and Kiddafest.”

“When I went to Senior High School I also joined the Theatre Programme for Schools (TPS), where we were doing stage drama for Senior High Schools. After the stage drama, I started doing series like St. James Hotel, Where is your Mobile? All that glitters, Suncity and others. Acting became something that I was developing a passion for so whenever I heard of any auditions I go and try my luck,” Martha explained.
