Most Ghanaian Gospel Songs Are Stupid – Ofori Amponsah
Ghanaian highlife singer, Ofori Amponsah has said that most Ghanaian gospel songs are stupid and meaningless.
The former clergyman in interview on Onua TV, claimed that his secular songs inspire people more than some gospel songs in Ghana.
Ofori said;
“The first thing God created was love, so if I am not able to satisfy my lover musically, how can I satisfy God, whom I’ve never seen. “If I sing sorrowful songs, what does the listener gain from them. Yesterday I was saying most of the gospel songs they do are stupid.
“A lot of the acclaimed gospel musicians lack the content when it comes to the word of God. Most of their songs are not gospel. They’re doing foolish songs“.
Ofori Amponsah also took a jab at some Ghanaian pastors, saying; “I can confidently tell you I even preach better than a lot of the pastors in Ghana“. This wouldn’t be the first time the Highlife is talking about the word of God.

According to her, no matter what people are going through, the Lord will remember them, adding that all they need is to pray and not relent.

“When the time comes, your miracle will happen to your amazement; those who used to mock you will be the same people to praise you,” Rama Antwi added.
According to her, she has seen that testimony in her life, adding that it is why she was offering thanksgiving through the song.
