    This Is How She'll Tell It by Anna-Maria Poku

    When a young journalist interviews an older Ghanaian woman about the secret to a long and lasting marriage, she expects to hear a story of devotion, compromise and commitment. Instead, Dede tells the story of a different love altogether — a passionate university romance that has lingered in her heart for decades. Set against the backdrop of 1980s Ghana, This Is How She’ll Tell It is a tender and poignant exploration of love, regret, duty and the lives we imagine we might have lived.  ----- This episode is part of AFREADA’s audio storytelling pilot, exploring new ways to bring African stories to global audiences. It was produced by Nancy Adimora, read by Nneka Okoye, recorded and edited by Modern Oak Studios, with support from Africa No Filter. For more short stories, visit afreada.com
