Empress Gifty Adorye, a renowned gospel music star has recently opened up about her early life as a maid servant for her mother’s friend.
Working as a maid some years back to becoming one of the most accomplished gospel musicians in Ghana, Empress Gifty is confident of God’s hand in her life.
Speaking on Wednesday’s edition of Badwam Ahosepe on Adom TV, the ‘Aseda’ crooner, gave a vivid account on how she was given out as a maidservant to one of her mother’s friends when her family began to face severe economic hardship.
According to her, What she thought would be a pleasurable stay owing to the friendship between her mother and her new madam was not to be, rather, she was subjected to ill treatment by her madam. She further noted that it was in the period when she had discovered her musical prowess, but because her friend’s mum did not understand the element of her divine gift, she always nagged.
“My madam did not understand the spiritual calling and she was always complaining. If I start singing, she’ll say I’m making noise. She will prevent me from going for church services, camp meetings and rehearsals, ” she emphasized.
The singer revealed that, “the first time I appeared on TV, she saw me and called me right after. She was so shocked that I was making it in life.”
The testimony is in line with her new song which she is currently promoting. Her story serves as a reminder that every journey is unique, and there’s no shame in starting from the bottom.
