In a recent interview with Graphic Showbiz, Nii Okai who is known for songs such as ‘Moko B?’, ‘Yesu Hi’, ‘Reign Forever’ among others entreated new gospel music entrants to be themselves and not compete with anyone.

He mentioned that God rewards faithfulness with success and entreated gospel artistes to invest in young talents.

 “You don’t have to be like everybody else. If you seek fame, you will fail, if you seek faithfulness, you will succeed. If you invest in others on behalf of God, He will eventually invest in others on your behalf,” he noted.
