The first edition of the Africa Gospel Music Festival (AGAFEST) unraveled successfully on Saturday the 30th of March inside the Action Chapel Dome, Spintex.
The night saw a cocktail of ministrations from diverse creatives across the African continent including the likes of Ghana’s very own Akesse Brempong, Joe Mettle, Overflow Inc, and some of Nigeria’s finest breeds like Tim Godfrey, Mercy Chinwo, Afy Douglas among several others.
Contrary to the language barrier and cultural differences, ministrations from the likes of Guardian Angel of Kenya and the Ekueme hitmaker, Prospa Ochimana, swept the entire Ghanaian dominated audience off their feet in a sweet moment of United praise and worship unto the God whom we all were created by.
