I have taken insults for too long – Gifty Osei

Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Gospel songstress Gifty Osei who has not been happy about insults she

receives from her followers on social media platforms have asked such

persons to either un-follow her or she will be forced to block them.

"I have taken the insults for too long and I think the time to take

action is now. It is very disheartening that I wake up in the morning

and read messages that are full of insults either on my facebook wall

or my inbox. I mean how, it is not fair, not at all, not to us who are

public figures or into

show business.

"The painful part is that, these are people who do not know anything

about you and even if you want to say something or comment on my post

or picture, should it be an insult? I upload pictures and

people have issues with my pictures," she said in an interview with

livefmghana.com.

Asked if she doesn't expects to be trolled given her public status,

she said: "I am human and so long as I have life and I am living, I am

still learning. Moreover when I came into the music scene, I was well

received by Ghanaians and that is something I really appreciate but

that does not give them the freedom to be attacking my personality.

"I have a life to live and I should be free to do so without anyone

abusing and insulting me. For God sake I am human."

"Someone sent me a friend request on facebook and I accepted and then

the person sends a message to thank me for acceptance. After a while

this same person sent me another message with insults just

because I posted a picture the person was not happy about on my wall

and for me such attitudes are uncalled for and they should not be

encouraged."

A celebrated gospel musician, she released her debut album Aseda in

2007. It was a huge hit.

Gifty had her basic education at the Mantey Din and New Oninku JSS,

all in Tema, before learning fashion designing. She is married to

Tema-based Pastor Prince Elisha Osei.

She was recently honored with a Best Female Gospel Musician award in Italy.
