Gospel Musician, Patience Nyarko, has said that she is focused on making music to change lives rather than winning awards.
In an interview with Happy FM’s DJ Advicer on the ‘Ayekoo After Drive’ show, she said: “Awards are nice. But that is not why I do music. I am not bitter about not winning awards. I get a lot of testimonies from people listening to my songs. That is more than winning awards”.
