Popular Ghanaian gospel artist Akesse Brempong has expressed his belief that there is nothing wrong with musicians aligning with the ideologies of a political party in the country.In a recent interview on Joy Prime's Celeb Biz Saturday, the 'God is working' hitmaker questioned the societal intolerance towards gospel artists supporting a political party, especially during an election year.

Brempong emphasised that musicians can be partisan and still connect with a polarised society.He urged Ghanaians to be more accepting of divergent political views, highlighting the potential harm of intolerance to the nation's survival.

The artist stressed that gospel musicians, as individuals with their own ideologies, can identify with a political party without compromising their ministry.He urged for greater acceptance of artists supporting a party, emphasising Ghanaians' ability to tolerate such affiliations.

Brempong criticised the hypocrisy and vilification faced by individuals who openly support a political party.He called for an end to such practices and emphasised the need for a more inclusive and tolerant society.

Additionally, the gospel artist disclosed that he does not receive financial support from his church for his pastoral duties.He expressed his desire not to be a financial burden to his church and revealed that he relies on multiple streams of revenue, aside from his music career, to sustain himself.“As much as the gospel musician is an individual, has ideologies, and can identify with the ideologies of a political party, the gospel musician can belong to a political party.

“But the other thing is when you know that the people your ministry is for are cross-partisan and that you align with this party, especially in Ghana.

“Ghanaians can tolerate the idea of gospel musicians supporting a party. I don’t know why it is,”Akesse Brempong stated.
