Ghanaian gospel musician, Francis Amo, has warned highlife musician Ofori Amponsah to be careful about classifying most Ghanaian gospel songs as meaningless.
During an interview with Kumawood actor Kwaku Manu that has been aired on Onua TV, Ofori Amponsah claims that his secular songs inspire more than some supposed gospel songs in Ghana.
The former clergyman whilst speaking about his love songs said the first thing God created was love, so if I am not able to satisfy my lover musically, how can I satisfy God, whom I’ve never seen.
If I sing sorrowful songs, what does the listener gain from them. Yesterday I was saying most of the gospel songs they do are stupid, he said.
According to the 'Nothing But Love' singer, a lot of the acclaimed gospel musicians lack the content when it comes to the word of God. Most of their songs are not gospel. They’re doing foolish songs.
But Minister Francis Amo disagreed and opined that Thou shall not judge, I can't judge him, but God will Judge him for saying that. That’s if he really said that. Maybe he wants to revive his career. It may be that he’s doing so this for attention.
There are things in the realm of the spirit. If you do, you bring curses on your family and your generations. He’s looking for trouble for his family because of this statement.
He said Gospel music is sacred and must be accord with the respect it deserves. The likes of Elder Mireku and apostle Paul Oko Hackman’s works, Ofori term as stupid songs, have healed and inspired lots of people. He is ignorant of things of the spirit.
