The leader of True Word Prophetic Fire Ministries, TWPFM, Prophet Nigel Gaisie has called out Nigerian celebrities and media over what he thinks is a deliberate attempt on their path not to support Afua Asantewaa Aduonum, a Ghanaian lady who is attempting to break the world record for the longest singing marathon (singathon) held by an individual.

The outspoken prophet took to Facebook on December 26, where he asked his followers if any of them had chanced on a post by any Nigerian celebrity or even blogger offering support to Afua Asantewaa Aduonum.

He recalled how Ghanaians supported Hilda Baci on her quest to break the cooking marathon world record and concluded that the time has come for Ghanaians to mind their business and promote their own.

"Alas, have you chanced on any Nigerian celebrity or blogger posting about Afua’s singa-thon? But Ghanaians no make we sleep when it was Hilda. Let’s Learn to mind our business and promote ours...YOURS IS YOURS. They have practised a culture of supporting their own no matter what,” his post read in part.

Nigel Gaisie was at the Akwaaba Village in Accra to offer support to Afua Asantewaa Aduonum who is poised to set a new world singing marathon record by an individual.

At the time of writing the report, the post had raked in over 1000 likes and 170 comments.
