Pokello's Father 'Snubs' Elikem

FORMER Big Brother Africa Zimbabwean housemate, Pokello Nare�s father, Retired Colonel George Nare, deliberately avoided meeting his daughter�s boyfriend, Ghanaian Elikem Komordzie when he came into the country. Nare revealed that he avoided meeting his daughter�s boyfriend when he visited Bulawayo last week, as he believes meeting him was against tradition. Contrary to media reports by the loverbirds that he was busy, he revealed that despite his daughter�s celebrity status and the publicity that the relationship had received, he still believed that tradition had to be adhered to. �My daughter called me and told me she was coming to Bulawayo with her boyfriend and wanted me to meet him, but I was very frank with her and I told her that it was against our tradition. I am happy for her and it is easy for her to be introduced to his family but not otherwise, I can only be able to meet him when they come for official introductions,� he said. The couple has been on cloud nine since the end of the reality television show last month and are seemingly �madly in love�.
