Ghanaian gospel musician Noble Nketsiah, known for hit songs such as Barima Yesu, Me Dan Wo and Mbofra Yi, has made a startling revelation about what he believes contributed to the decline of his once-thriving music career.
Noble Nketsiah was one of the most prominent male gospel vocalists in Ghana during the early 2000s, enjoying widespread popularity and acclaim across the country.
His success peaked at the 2005/2006 Ghana Music Awards, where he won Best Gospel Album of the Year for My Vision and Best Gospel Song of the Year for Semetease. At the time, he was regarded as one of the leading figures in Ghanaian gospel music.
However, years later, his presence on the music scene diminished significantly, leaving many wondering what had happened to his flourishing career.
Speaking in an interview on Starr Showbiz, Noble Nketsiah recounted an encounter in 2009 with three men who allegedly approached him with an offer to elevate his music career.
“I met these three young men who said they wanted to sign me on because the kind of gifting I have is beyond the level I was operating at. They promised to take me to greater heights and make me very big,” he said.
According to him, as the conversation progressed, he became uncomfortable and sensed that something was not right.
“Eventually, they dropped the bombshell. They said that for all these things to happen, I had to join a group of people and become part of an altar. It turned out to be a cult. They even claimed that some of my colleagues had joined. I told them that the same God who took me from a place of hopelessness and made me who I am today would take me even higher. I didn’t need any extra power,” he recounted.
Nketsiah said that after rejecting the offer, he began experiencing a sudden downturn in his career.
The experience, however, did not shake his faith in God.
