Ghanaian singer Empress Gifty has been spotted in Tema ramping up preparations for her mother’s funeral on January 18.
Her mother, a veteran Kumawood actress who appeared in several commercials, passed away last year at age 70.
The Watch Me hitmaker shared a tight relationship with her late mother, the only daughter among five children.
The late actress was a staunch Christian who helped raise Empress Gifty in the faith that helped the singer build her gospel career.
Empress Gifty posted a video on social media in her mourning clothes as she busily prayed ahead of the funeral. She wrote:
“Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen ( Hebrews 11:1), One of my mother’s favorite Bible verses. Agaga RIP.”
The singer also extended an invitation to all fans to join her for the final funeral rites at the Tema Community 8, No. 3 School Park.
@empressgifty60this week is not easy for my family and I please remember us in your prayers RIP in Maa
