Sista Afia says she didn't invite Tracy Shay
Sista Afia has responded to rumours that she invited a rising dancer and goddaughter of Wendy Shay, Tracy Gyasi, to perform at her event.
The award-winning songstress emphasised that she was completely unaware of how and when Tracy Shay managed to appear on stage.
She expressed her surprise and confirmed that she did not personally invite the young talent to perform at the concert.
"My attention has been drawn to a number of social media stories, videos, and write-ups suggesting that I personally invited the young lady, Tracy Shay, onto the stage during my concert. I wish to clearly state that I have no knowledge of how or when she got onto the stage, and I did not personally invite her to do so. At this moment, my main focus is on the overall success of my 10th Anniversary Celebration in the music industry, which was a significant milestone for my career. I am currently holding a series of meetings with my management and team to review all aspects of the event. A detailed response on this matter will be issued at the appropriate time. Once again, I sincerely thank my fans, supporters, colleagues, sponsors, and the general public for the immense love and support shown to me during this historic celebration. Your encouragement means everything to me."
