Zionfelix, born Nana Yaw Felix Adomako Mensah, has revealed why he has a prominent mark on his face, which is usually mistaken for tribal identification.
“According to my parents, I often would get sick when I was a child so they took me to a lot of places for a remedy,” Zionfelix said.
He emphasised that regular checkups, as his doctor advised, is something he does not take lightly.
The popular vlogger also clarified that though “most people think I’m a northerner, I am not. Joe Mettle also has these marks but he is not from northern Ghana”.
He stated he is not bothered in the least about having the marks or any stigma attached to it, however: “I’m okay. I grew up with this so I’m okay. I have not even given a thought to it before.”
“Even if I am a northerner, there’s nothing wrong with it,” he said, shrugging a little.
Accra 100.5 FM’s Nana Romeo, who was interviewing the vlogger, wondered if he would take up an offer to surgically clear the mark.
Zionfelix readily answered: “It’s part of my identity so, no. It’d change me.”
