Eunice Banini |
Actress
Eunice Banini used to be one of Ghana’s most-talked-about and perhaps
controversial actresses.
She
was also one of the adoring characters TV audience loved to watch in the series
‘Efiewura’.
However,
she has been missing in action lately.
Last
Saturday, she made a rare appearance at the grand launching of Unique Hair
Styles Beauty Salon at Community 18, Baatsona.
Her
demeanor at the event showed she was not really enthused about the paparazzi
attention she was attracting. Her facial expression, after NEWS-ONE lens
flashed, largely exposed that.
Eunice
was in the company of her son, Selassie Banini, a model. Obviously, age is
catching up with Eunice like every other human being.
Eunice
is well remembered for her friendship with late actress Suzzy Williams. Both
were described as strong characters. Suzzy died in a fatal accident.
Eunice
was last in the news for saying she preferred to be called a stubborn
Christian.
She
had said on ‘Onie’, an entertainment show on TV3 in 2009 that she would not
describe herself as a Christian and that she would rather be comfortable saying
she was a “stubborn Christian”.
She explained it was because in her
heart she believed in God and did His will but unfortunately she did not go to
church regularly.
On that show, she also spoke of some
occupational hazards she had encountered as an actress. She recalled a
situation where, due to her outgoing nature, a soldier friend mistook her
friendliness to mean she was interested in him.
She said on one occasion, the
soldier, whose identity she did not disclose, came to pick her up and their
next stop was a hotel. According to her, she felt very sorry about the
incident.
She advised single parents,
especially mothers, to be strong and dedicated to working hard no matter what
they went through in taking care of their children, though it was not easy
doing that.
She indicated that she was a single
mother herself but did not let that situation bother her as she did well in
raising her children.
The actress has been out of mainstream
acting for years, but has been entertaining her fans via ‘Efiewura’.
