‘Aseda Afore3’, thanksgiving song for Christmas – Shatty Charlotte
UK-based Ghanaian gospel artiste and nurse, Shatty Charlotte has compiled her testimonies into a song dubbed, Aseda Afore3″.
This is to show appreciation to God for all the mercies and favour throughout the year.
The song from her album ‘’Power of praise’’, explains the essence of Thanksgiving.
Speaking to The Spectator, Shatty Charlotte said that she testified to God’s power after a patient was restored to life by prayer under her supervision as a nurse in UK.
‘’ In my first week practising as a nurse, a young lady nearly died in my bay, she collapsed and was unresponsive so I had to press the emergency buzzer, I began to pray and it was as if someone had called her from afar, she just sat up and I was completely amazed by the work of God, this inspired me to write ‘’Aseda Afore3’’ – she said
Shatty Charlotte is optimistic that this single will be a blessing to lives and the world at large especially this yuletide and it’s available on all digital music platforms.
Gospel singer, songwriter and currently a nurse in the United Kingdom, Shatty Charlotte has been singing since childhood, a gift her father noticed when she was three years.
Shatty was enrolled at the at the Rev John Teye Memorial Institute in Accra to begin her primary and music education.
While there she had the opportunity to sing in various places including the State House, Goethe Institut – Accra and on GBC TV.
Shatty has a great passion for the things of the Kingdom of God. Her album ‘’Power in Praise’’ tells the story of her life and one reason you should never give up in life.
She is married with three children who all live in the United Kingdom.

Renowned Ghanaian music heavyweight, Empress Gifty, has dedicated her seven awards won in 2025 to President John Dramani Mahama.
The musician and her management, led by Edem Mensah-Tsotorme, together with her husband, Mr Hopeson Adorye, called on the President at the Jubilee House on Thursday, October 9, 2025.
Empress Gifty, in her remarks, said the visit was to officially congratulate the President, who has been a father figure for her for many years, and also update him on successes chalked in her career.
She thanked the President for his guidance over the years and promised to even do better in the years ahead, as she prepares to release her new song for the year.
The gospel musician also appealed to President Mahama to consider building a large seating auditorium for the creative arts industry.
She appealed to the President for a 10,000 to 30,000 large seating auditorium to improve the fortunes of the creative sector when it comes to events in the country.
This, she said, would go a long way to help the sector flourish and position the country for other international events in the future.
Additionally, she urged the President to ensure the creative sector gets substantial allocation in the next budget.
The President, on his part, thanked Empress Gifty, who he calls his daughter, and the team for the visit, expressing how proud he was of her growth.
Again, he charged her to continuously work even harder for more laurels.
President Mahama pledged his commitment to the growth of the creative arts industry, adding that with regard to a large seating auditorium for the space, he has received some designs and suggestions for a convention centre which are under consideration.
According to him, once suggestions were approved and issues of funding are addressed, this would serve a multipurpose function and host many activities throughout the year.
The President further pledged his unflinching support for the creative arts sector and assured of budgetary support in the years ahead.
