<p>It could be recalled that in May 2024, as social media was engulfed with heated debates over who deserved the prestigious TGMA Artiste of the Year Award, Efia Odo, a vocal supporter of King Promise, called Stonebwoy 'old' and suggested he should leave the award for younger artistes like King Promise, <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/stonebwoy-declares-political-ambition-to-become-ashaiman-mp-by-2028/36j0ttk">whom she believes deserved it more for his recent musical achievements.</a></p>

<h2>But speaking on the July 27, 2024, edition of 'United Showbiz', Efia Odo admitted her mistake and expressed regret for her words, which she attributed to her strong emotions as a fan of King Promise.</h2>

<p><em>"In the moment, for me, when I'm a fan of someone, I go hard for the person. What I said to Stonebwoy, calling him an old man and all that was wrong. I admit it,"</em> she told MzGee, host of the show.</p>

<p>She acknowledged <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/music/celine-dion-returns-to-stage-for-dramatic-performance-at-olympic-opening-ceremony/vejmdpw">Stonebwoy's significant contributions</a> to the music industry, ranking him among the top artistes in Ghana.</p>

<p>Efia Odo added that she believes Stonebwoy deserves recognition beyond the Ghana Music Awards and should aim for international accolades like the Grammys.</p>

<p><em>"What I wanted to really say is that I see you to be bigger than Ghana Music Awards. I see you to be bigger than the platforms they're giving you," </em>she explained.</p>

<p>Taking full responsibility for her actions, Efia Odo apologised for letting her emotions get the better of her <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.com.gh/entertainment/celebrities/stonebwoys-family-steals-the-show-at-gimpa-graduation-as-the-singer-bags-degree/mw6clf4">while defending King Promise.</a></p>
