Published

on

UK-based Ghanaian gospel musician, Francisca Amoah has finally released the music video for her song, “My Praise”.

The Fast-rising gospel musician, Francisca Amoah is also a professional logistician in the UK.

Her song teaches the act of thanksgiving urging Christians to praise God regardless of their difficulties.

Narrating how she composed the song, she said “It was on one winter evening, it was dark and cold, I set off from home to attend bible studies at Eternal Life Christian Centre. I was on the way alone, feeling cold, and faced with the darkness on the road I remembered the lines in 1 Thessalonians 5:18 which says “Give thanks in all circumstances, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.”

“As soon as the thought of these words flashed through my mind, the song burst out of my mouth,” she revealed. 

Francisca Amoah believes that the birth of “My Praise” affirms one’s faith to sing God’s praises in all the circumstances of our life.

“I am convinced that God wants to use this song to tell someone out there that the challenges you are facing must not define you. My Praise is also a faith song,” she added.

According to her, “The bible says that faith is the substance of things hoped for; the evidence of things not seen and for it the Elders obtained a good testimony. My Praise song is a song of good testimony, to sing Praise and not Pain.”

She desires that this song of faith and testimony will be an anthem song for every believer to use to affirm their faith in God regardless of the situation they find themselves in.

“Every name and knee should bow when we call on the name of Jesus. Come on, and Let’s sing our Praise song,” she added.

The music video released on December 18, is available on her YouTube page among other platforms.

Francisca came out with her first album in March 2023 and through her hard work, she was signed by Kato Enterprise as a Brand Ambassador for UltiMalt Drinks in the UK.

GOMOA Central Constituency in the Central Region of Ghana was the place of attraction for this year’s Easter, as Member of Parliament (MP) for the area, Kwame Asare Obeng, affectionately called Aplus staged a four-day carnival.

The event started with a welcome bonfire night, where the people of Gomoa and some dignitaries proceeded through the principal streets of Gomoa Central on Thursday, April 2, 2026.

Saturday started with a walk from Obuasi through Afranse to Ekwamkrom, where a durbar of chiefs was held.

The night erupted with concert at Ekwamkrom headlined by Ghana’s Finest Sarkodie. Sarkodie indeed proved his mettle with back-to-back hit songs and engaging performance.

Mr Kwame Asare Obeng in an interview with The Spectator expressed his appreciation to the traditional leaders of the area, the constituents, Corporate Ghana and all and sundry for their unflinching support.

He said the success of the maiden edition will lead to even a bigger one next year.

According to him, his constituents who own businesses like hotels, restaurants, other traders and drivers among others were able to cash out from the carnival, which was very satisfying to him.

“Empowering the community to make ends meet to cater for their families was important for me. I have engaged most of them, and they are happy with sales. This makes me very happy,” he said.
