According to the Minister, "I can relate better to the youth because I’m a ‘swagger’ mama and I believe I’m the best person to encourage the youth because they feel comfortable with me.

Delving into her background, Otiko’s mother’s brother is John Mahama’s father. So she is closely related to the very man she described as having the devil’s heart.
