Cecilia Marfo’s interruption hurt me, but I applied wisdom-Joyce Blessing
Gospel musician, Joyce Blessing has revealed that she was hurt by the disruption of her performance at the annual thanksgiving programme by the Unity Group of Companies in Kumasi in January this year.
While Joyce Blessing was performing, Cecilia Marfo walked up straight to the stage and snatched the microphone from her and told her to go back to her then husband.
“I felt hurt when she snatched the microphone from me, but I applied wisdom, as my parents taught me not to react to elders harshly no matter the circumstance,”she added.
Speaking to Sammy Flex on Zylofon FM’s Showbiz Agenda on Tuesday, Joyce Blessing said, she did not react as a gesture of respect to the musician, adding that “Cecilia Marfo is my senior in music, and older than me as well,”she said.”
She added that at that time the hullabaloo about her marriage among others were dying, unfortunately the incident resurrected it, which made her decide not to react on any platform.
That notwithtsanding, the “Adam Nana” hit maker revealed that Cecilia Marfo together with her husband called to apologise which she accepted in good faith.
“Cecilia Marfo told me she was sorry, I accepted and told her not to repeat it,” Joyce Blessing revealed.
Currently, Joyce Blessing is out with new song which she says is a narration of the turbulence she has gone through in life. The song dubbed “Oluwa Is Involved” was produced by Willis Beatz

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.
