That rich Ghanaian flavor will not miss out as Ghana’s Gospel Pop Minister Cwesi Oteng will blend his contemporary music with that of the Gospel Queen Ohemaa Mercy’s rich, Holy Ghost brewed sensational tunes.
The good old but still very vibrant voice of Mary Ghansah will heal the heart of the nation. Soul-Winners and Joe Mettle will surely minister to bring the heavens kissing the earth. And finally, there will be a benediction of his Grace by Francis Amo.
