Empress Gifty Delivers Emotional Performance

On December 14, Empress Gifty announced the death of her mum, Evangelist Agnes Aba Annan.

Since the announcement, scores of colleagues have visited the bereaved singer at home to commiserate with her.

A recent video of her singing as she receives sympathizers has surfaced online.

In the video, Empress Gifty was seen in a state of grief as she sang the trending song ‘Watch Me’ with a teary voice.

In the emotional performance, the award-winning singer appeared to be taking solace in the song’s comforting lyrics.

She dwelled on the line that references God’s love for her when she loses the world. The video has registered nearly a million hits on TikTok in under 24 hours.

Some Ghanaians commented as they weighed in on Empress Gifty’s performance.

Moreover, the Ghanaian gospel musician reacted to the comments made by fellow artist, Evangelist Diana Asamoah regarding the venue for her late mother’s funeral.

Diana Asamoah had advised Empress Gifty against holding the ceremony on any astroturf facilities constructed by the New Patriotic Party (NPP), citing political affiliations as a concern.

Some of Gifty’s friends from the gospel fraternity paid a visit to her in her home to console her after losing her mother.

One of the ladies who visited her jovially mentioned that she was not allowed to organize her mother’s funeral at any astroturf built by the NPP.

Empress Gifty responded with a light-hearted comment while laughing, dismissing the comments, and choosing not to engage in a public dispute.

As the funeral arrangements proceed, Empress Gifty’s choice of venue remains to be seen.
