Hardship forced my father into exile – Piesie Esther

Gospel super-songstress Piesie Esther has opened up about a traumatic childhood memory, revealing how armed policemen once threatened to shoot her father during a house visit to collect a debt.

The celebrated artiste recalled the difficult circumstances her family endured when she was growing up.

“My mother was married, but life was really tough… Hardship forced my father into exile. He was a responsible man who gave us all the love a parent should,” she said in an exclusive interview on Accra-based Hot FM.

Detailing one of the scariest moments of her childhood, Piesie Esther recounted how armed policemen stormed their home to arrest her father.

“I remember a time when armed policemen came to our house to collect a debt from my father. He was a strong man and resisted arrest, at which point the policemen cocked their guns at him,” she narrated.

Though her father stood firm in the face of the ordeal, the memory has remained vivid in her mind as a reminder of the struggles her family went through before her rise to fame.
