Nana Osei, the popular Ghanaian gospel singer known as Nacee, recently explained in an interview why he chose not to pursue becoming a pastor in his church.
Speaking on the New Day Show on TV3 with Berla Mundi on November 22, Nacee addressed the question of whether he would assume a more prominent role in the industry. He conveyed his preference to remain behind the scenes.
Reflecting on a past experience, Nacee shared that his church pastor once attempted to appoint him as a pastor, but he resisted the offer.
He emphasized the diversity of roles within the church, asserting that his specific role was centred around singing and playing musical instruments.
“Years ago, my pastor did everything possible to ordain me, but I resisted,” he said.
“All of us can’t be pastors; some of us have to do different things; someone has to be an usher; someone has to pack the chairs; and someone will play the instrument. I believe that my part is to play the instrument and that’s it.”
He also stated that he would not consider a role in the Musicians Association of Ghana (MUSIGA), saying, “I am ok where I am.”
