Ghanaian Afro-pop sensation Sista Afia has stated that she would be willing to go back to her nursing career at the age of 40 after doing music.
During a recent interview on Onua TV, the singer, who was a registered nurse in the UK before returning to Ghana to pursue music, revealed that her nursing career is currently on hold as she focuses full-time on her music.
“Right now, I’m a full-time musician, and nursing is on hold. When I get to the age of 40, I’ll go back to nursing,” Sista Afia stated.
She humorously added, “It’s been a while since I stopped school; I’ve even forgotten how to spell ‘Chloroquine.’”
The singer, known for hits like “Jeje” and “Slay Queen,” emphasized that while music is her primary focus at the moment, she remains open to returning to her nursing profession later in life.
Sista Afia studied nursing at the Reverend John Teye Memorial Institute in Ghana before relocating to the UK to further her education.
She returned to Ghana in 2015 to chase her musical dreams and has since become one of the country’s most recognizable voices in the Afro-pop genre.
