Empress Gifty was overjoyed when Vice President Dr Mahamudu Bawumia conceded defeat, making the former president John Dramani Mahama the president-elect
The article from Yen.com.gh discusses the backlash faced by Ghanaian gospel singer Empress Gifty after she celebrated the New Patriotic Party's (NPP) loss in the 2024 Ghanaian elections. Empress Gifty, known for her support of the NPP, posted a video on social media where she was seen dancing and rejoicing over the election results. This act drew significant criticism from Ghanaians who felt that her celebration was inappropriate, especially given her public persona as a gospel artist. Many expressed disappointment, arguing that her behavior was unbecoming of someone in her position and that she should have maintained a neutral stance or at least shown more decorum. The controversy highlights the intersection of politics and entertainment in Ghana, where public figures are often expected to navigate their political affiliations carefully.
