“You’ve downplayed my hardwork, efforts for too long” – Sista Afia goes hard on TGMA

Ghanaian singer-songwriter Francisca Gawugah, better known by her stage name Sis Afia, has made a strong statement against what she sees as an under appreciation of her contributions to the nation’s music scene, especially at the esteemed Ghana Music Awards.

The music diva expressed her frustration in a Facebook post seen by KobbyJosvan.com. She claimed that the organisers of the Ghana Music Awards scheme regularly ignored and marginalized her efforts in the music industry.
Sis Afia feels that she should be given more credit for her contributions to the Ghanaian music scene, having made a name for herself with hits like “Jeje” and “Weather.” She claimed that, in spite of her commitment and diligence, she frequently gets overlooked in favour of other artistes when it comes to Ghana’s largest awards programme. Even though “Asuoden,” one of her hit songs from 2021, was popular, she underlined that it was not nominated.

The singer continued by saying she knew of musicians who received award nominations but did not submit a nomination.

“Have I offended someone at the high table Ghana Music Awards ?? The fact that Asuoden was a big song in 2021 Zero nominations which I still don’t get. I learnt people don’t even file for nominations but get nominations, the downplay on my efforts ever since i started doing music in Ghana hasn’t been fair to my craft And Yes it hurts because I work soo hard.

“I’ve been quiet for soo long because i have respect for the scheme and I dont want to step on no one’s toes!” She wrote.
