Ghanaian gospel singer Empress Gifty touched down at Kotoka International Airport to a rousing welcome after being crowned Artiste of the Year at the 2025 Ghana Music Awards-USA.
Beaming with joy, the award-winning singer addressed her supporters and media gathered at the airport, reflecting on her two-decade journey in gospel music.
“So far so good, God has been faithful to myself, my ministry and the whole Empress Gifty team,” she said, describing her win as the culmination of 21 years of commitment to her calling. “It has been a long journey, professionally 21 years as a gospel minister…and this is the doing of the Lord.”
Empress Gifty also linked her victory to a prophetic declaration she made last year, one she says she has carried in prayer ever since. “I think 2024 I said watch me, and it was a prophetic word that God gave it to Kuami Eugene and since that day, I keep praying on that word ‘watch me’…that may the nation watch me.”
She explained that just as God promised Abraham he would be the father of many nations, she too believed her moment would come. “I prophesied that word unto my life that a day will come, a month will come, a year will come and Empress, the whole world will watch me,” she said with emotion.
Calling the Ghana Music Awards-USA an “international award” of great weight, she described it as a recognition that every artiste dreams of. “It is a pressure award that everybody will love to work hard and get something like this,” she remarked.
Grateful for the warm welcome at the airport, the gospel singer expressed nothing but excitement. “I am so good and happy to see you,” she told the cheering crowd, her voice filled with gratitude.
