Akosua Agyapong has responded to comparisons between herself and her sister, musician Stephanie Benson, saying she is happy to see her sibling doing well.
Speaking on Joy Prime, the veteran performer said she has no issue with people acknowledging Stephanie’s success.
“If she’s doing well, I respect that and I thank God for that. My sister is a sweet and strong person,” she said.
Asked whether she was still open to finding love, Akosua simply replied, “We’re waiting for God.”
She also used the interview to share details of her upcoming projects, revealing that she will celebrate her 36th anniversary in music this October.
Akosua said she is preparing for an international tour and will soon release new songs and music videos.

Akosua Agyapong began singing at an early age and was discovered in the 1990s by highlife Artiste Nana Ampadu, a highlife legend.
Her first album, ‘Frema,’ was released on January 1, 1990. ‘Frema’ had songs such as ‘Me ye Obaa’ that became instant hits, in addition to other tracks, such as ‘Born again,’‘Anan tuo,’ and ‘San be hwe wo mba,’ among others.
After the success of Frema, she met Nat Brew and Rex Omar, who inspired her to release her subsequent album ‘Esiwa,’ another instant hit. In 1992, she formed the Highlife Supergroup NAKOREX together with Brew and Omar, the group’s name being an acronym made up of the first letters of each member’s name, and released the song ‘Kpanlogo.’
