Ghanaian Afro-pop sensation Sista Afia has revealed her plans to return to nursing at the age of 40, despite her current full-time commitment to music.
In a recent interview on Onua TV, the “Jeje” and “Slay Queen” hitmaker shared that her nursing career is currently on hold as she focuses entirely on her music. However, she intends to pick it up again in the future.
“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,” she stated. Adding a touch of humor, she said, “It’s been a while since I stopped school; I’ve even forgotten how to spell Chloroquine.”
Before venturing fully into music, Sista Afia worked as a licensed nurse in the UK. She initially studied nursing at the Reverend John Teye Memorial Institute in Ghana before relocating abroad to further her education.
In 2015, she returned to Ghana to pursue her passion for music, a decision that has since made her one of the most recognizable voices in the Afro-pop scene.
