Alice McKenzie
Ghanaian UK-based gospel musician, Alice McKenzie has launched a foundation to put smiles on the faces of Ghanaians in the area of healthcare delivery.
Speaking to The Spectator at the event held at Sowutuom last Saturday, she said the official launch of the foundation was in fulfilment of a long hatched dream, adding that, the realisation gladdens her heart.
According to her the late diagnosis and medical negligence led to the death of her mother, a situation which inspired her to set up the foundation.
Also the gospel musician added that a friend contacted her on some of the challenges in the Ghanaian health sector, and against this backdrop, she decided with the team to launch the foundation.
Alice McKenzie noted that she has been to several hospitals in Ghana where she realised there are a lot of challenges, considering her 10 years of experience as a nurse in the UK.
She was optimistic that this foundation would go a long way to create awareness about early diagnosis which is crucial in saving lives and also help in training of some health professionals.
Additionally, she revealed that the foundation would assist people finally in the area of healthcare among others.
Alice McKenzie called on all and sundry to come on board to make a huge impact in the lives of the downtrodden.
She is currently out with a new single titled ‘Beautiful’, a thanksgiving song that expresses her gratitude for what God has done in her life.

Osanju is dead
Popular Ghanaian content creator, Elvis Frimpong, known in showbiz circles as Osanju has been reported dead.
According to sources, he was said to have died in the early hours on Monday, September 1, 2025 after a long battle with blood cancer (Leukemia)
His death has been a shock in the Ghanaian community especially coming shortly after his last post.
His demise comes five months after he had laid his mother, Amounu, also a tiktoker, to rest, having lost her in January.
Hours before his passing, he had posted a video on Sunday with friends watching the Barcelona vs. Rayo Vallecano match, prompting many fans to initially dismiss the reports as a hoax.
Osanju’s death has been described as a huge loss by followers who admired his openness, resilience and positive outlook in the face of ill health.
However, Osanju had previously shared his battle with leukemia, a cancer of the blood, on his TikTok account, even eerily predicting his own demise on a couple of occasions.
