Celestine Donkor not in prison – Management dispels rumours

The management of gospel songstress, Celestine Donkor has denied rumours that she has offended the law and is currently serving a prison term.

The rumours were fueled by pictures that found their way onto social media sites, including facebook about a week ago depicting the Supernatural singer in handcuffs and being escorted by two female prison wardens.

Reacting to the rumours, manager and husband of the singer, Kofi Donkor, told Myjoyonline.com in an interview that Celestine is home and that the rumour “is not true, it can’t be true, it won’t be true.”

“We’ve also heard the same stuff. I’m told some pictures on facebook and all that, but the truth of the matter is that we know about the pictures, we are aware of it, I don’t know who managed to get it there,” he said, explaining “It’s her project, we are actually doing her new video that is supposed to be on-air in some few weeks. There is nothing too serious about it; it’s just a music video.”

According to Kofi Donkor, the song, Manim Nguase, is a new song from her next album which will be released later in the year. The single will be on her first ever music video compilation also to be released soon.

The video was shot at the James Fort Prison in Accra last Saturday.

“There was a scene in the whole storyline where she started as a trafficked child and then later on there was a frame up and then she got herself thrown in jail so she was actually handcuffed in the midst of two prison officers and escorted into the prison, I think that is where that thing came from,” the manager narrated.

Apart from Manim Nguase, the video compilation will include some of Celestine’s hit singles such as I Can Be Righteous, Supernatural and Adekye Mu Nsem.

The video, Kofi hinted, will be premiered before her Celestial Praize concert scheduled for May 25, this year.
