The artist, known for songs such as Nya Nkwa and Turning Around, has long been vocal about her support for the NDC.
According to her, this public stance affected her career at the time the New Patriotic Party (NPP) was in power, as she was allegedly sidelined for her political affiliation.
Speaking during an interview on ATV, Bernice Ansah stated that her name was often removed from performance line-ups.
“My name would be submitted for performances, and it would be taken out, with the explanation that it was a directive from above,” she said.
Despite her loyalty, the gospel musician expressed disappointment over what she sees as a lack of recognition from her party after its electoral success.

Bernice Ansah shares skipping bath to rally
She recounted the sacrifices she made in support of the NDC, including an intensive period of all-night prayers and fasting lasting one year and four months ahead of the 2024 general elections.
According to her, she and her group committed themselves spiritually to the party’s victory.
She added that she was actively involved during the campaign period, performing at events and rallies, sometimes under challenging conditions.
On one occasion, she noted that she moved directly from an all-night prayer session to perform at a rally the following day without even taking a break.
Bernice Ansah maintained that she dedicated significant time and effort, including her career, to support the party. However, she indicated that since the NDC assumed power, she has not been invited to participate in any of its programmes.
“I am not asking for money from anyone. All I want is to be included among the artistes engaged for programmes,” she said.
She clarified that her concerns were not directed at the President but rather at party appointees responsible for media engagements and the selection of performers for official events, urging them to acknowledge her contributions.
