On Good Friday, Nigerian award-winning gospel singer Sinach sent the crowd wild during a praise concert at Rubaga Miracle Centre.
At 8pm, Sinach accompanied by her band, started with some thrilling hits such as I Know Who I Am; it looked like the congregation’s dance mode had been activated. Jessica Kayanja took to the stage, pulling rare dance moves that got her husband, Robert Kayanja and pastor Joe Egbo, Sinach’s husband; Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy church) ‘showering’ her with money.
Sinach sung Born To Reign, I Worship You and I Live To Praise Your Name. Her praise and worship songs are sung by church choirs world over, including Uganda as seen when she performed I’m Blessed and You Make My Life So Beautiful, where she was joined by some members of the church choir.
That was the climax of the highly anticipated show, after three hours of great performance.
All proceeds from the show went towards the Africa Aid Project, an initiative of Pastor Kayanja that is aimed at helping the needy.
Buckets, consisting items such as soap, sugar, milk powder and flour, among other essentials, are distributed to different communities in Uganda. It is the efforts of the Afri Aid Project that saw food worth millions of money delivered to South Sudan and received by their President Salva Kiir.
“I refuse to enjoy my life while people around us are suffering,” said Kayanja, adding: “Hunger knows no religion, tribe or status.”
Born Osinachi Kalu, Sinach is a gospel singer and songwriter with over 200 songs to her name. She is married to pastor Joe Egbo at Christ Embassy Church in Ikeja, Lagos, Nigeria in 2014.
The event ended at about 11pm with a performance from American gospel singer Anthony Faulkner singing I Trust You.
