Ghanaian singer Efya has opened up about her disinterest in engaging in controversies or feuds within the entertainment industry, describing the space as a “warzone” that she simply doesn't have the strength or heart to endure.

Speaking in an interview with Nana Romeo on Accra FM, the soulful vocalist shared her candid thoughts after music enthusiast and industry player Ayisha Modi sent a message through the host to let her know she was tuned in.

Efya responded with warmth, giving Ayisha a shoutout and acknowledging the vital role she and others play in keeping the entertainment scene active and exciting.

“What Ayisha Modi and the others are doing is what makes the game nice. Because someone like me won’t get into a battle with anyone. It’s a battle, it’s a warzone, and I don’t have the heart or the vim for it,” she stated.

While Efya maintained her stance against personal drama, she also made it clear that she respects individuals like Ayisha Modi who boldly stir conversations and push narratives within the industry.

“In situations like that, I’ll just cry,” she said with a chuckle, indicating her preference for peace over public sparring.

The award-winning singer further emphasized that she values healthy competition among artists — the type that inspires and motivates rather than breeds conflict or violence.

“I enjoy healthy competition to boost your energy, as long as it doesn’t get negative and violent. We don’t condone violence, but strength to all the warriors,” Efya added.

Her comments come amid a series of headline-grabbing rants by Ayisha Modi, who has recently accused some entertainment figures of betrayal while recounting the sacrifices she has made to support Ghana’s showbiz landscape.

Efya's remarks offer a glimpse into the emotional toll the entertainment world can have on artists who prefer to let their work speak for itself — and a reminder that behind every voice is a choice for peace over provocation.
