In the interview, she explained that like many Ghanaians, she moved to the UK because she didn’t like living in Ghana.
Julie Juu stated that she has lived in the UK for over 10 years and it all started because one of her two children had graduated from school in the UK and unfortunately, she missed it because she was in Ghana.
She said she finally got to the UK for an event called Family Day, and when she got to the UK, she loved the place. She added that one thing that solidified her decision not to return to Ghana was that her late husband, Bosom Pra, passed away and she was unhappy in Ghana.
Speaking about life abroad, the Cantata star actress said things were going well, unlike in Ghana.
