Leading gospel musician, Sammy Okposo, has said that Nigerian gospel
artistes are usually treated as kings and queens in foreign lands.
Making the remarks in Lagos during a chat with Saturday Beats, the
‘Wellu Wellu’ crooner, who is part of a star-studded cast headlining
this year’s Unusual Praise music festival taking place soon, said that
as a result of the rich blend of Nigerian gospel songs, proponents of
the genre are always treated with respect and love in other countries of
the world whenever they visited.
He said, “I have been to many countries around the world and it is
always so special to see the way they accept Nigerian gospel songs. They
treat us like kings and queens because of the message in our songs and
how they glorify the name of God.
“For me, this goes to show how relevant our songs are and how people want to associate with the way Nigerians praise God.
“Therefore, this year’s Unusual Praise is going to be another great
avenue to sell our mode of worship to the world and ultimately glorify
our creator in a truly special way.”
