Why I Stopped Smoking- Afia Schwar Shares Details

Valentina Nana Agyeiwaa, aka Afia Schwarzenegger, has revealed why she totally quit smoking and what defines her personality which she thinks is unknown to the general public in a recent outburst captured in a viral video.

The former leading character in the defunct Afia Schwarzenegger TV series penned by Deloris Frimpong Manso (Delay) openly acknowledged that she was once a chronic smoker but that she no longer smokes for personal health reasons rather than due to social pressure.

“I don’t think anybody knows me more than my children, and I also don’t think anybody knows my children more than myself. So, what will you tell children who know my weakness and my strength? That their mother used to drink? I have not stopped drinking so when I say I used to drink it is bullshit.

I used to smoke (and) my children knew it. I stopped smoking not because of society. Hello, hello, I didn’t do it for you,” she said in a video while being interviewed by blogger ZinoFelix in Berlin, Germany.

Afia noted that she stopped smoking because of her health and not because she was put under any pressure from external factors. “I got so many issues…I stopped smoking because of my health. I had breathing issues and so many issues. I’m not the type of person who’s that strong,” she said.

Afia Schwarzenegger said she didn’t get any pastor-related advice to give up smoking; instead, she just decided to cease when she woke up one morning.

“For me, it is not any pastor that sat me down to advise me against smoking. Nobody told me to stop smoking, I woke up and I said, you know what, cigarette is out. And for drinking, I stopped then I went back, I will stop again and still go back and they (her children) knew it,” she added.
