After the day, her teachers having noticed her singing gift, made her sing during Children’s Day celebrations in front of the adult audience.
Talking about how she had the opportunity to get into the industry, she recalled:
“Along the line, I had the opportunity to sing with Francis Adjei for so many years. Finally, in God’s time and according to his planning, in 2007, we came out with the first album ‘Osoro Bekasa’ (Heaven Will Speak).
“Two years later, we followed up with ‘Ensiwo Yie’ (May It Be Well with You). Three years later, we released ‘Eye Woa’ (It’s You), and with God’s help we added the ‘Yehowa’ album which houses ‘Yehowa Behwe’ (God Will Take Care of You) and ‘Work in Progress’”.

She recalled:
“I used to admire Suzy and Matt a lot. I used to admire Jane and Bernice, Daughters of Glorious Jesus, there’s another one I really love and admire – Cece Winans – she’s American. So there are people we looked up to”.
