Gospel singer, Amaka Okwuoha, aka Chioma Jesus has released some photos to mark her 50th birthday.
Sharing photos from her 5oth birthday shoot, Chiom Jesus wrote “GODS GRACE AND MERCIES BROUGHT ME THUS FAR. GRATEFUL 50!!! GRACEFUL 50!!!!”
Kemi Filani recalls that Chioma Jesus in a recent interview had this to say about her name.
“God told me that he would give me a name and a local song that would ‘hit’ the entire world. He told me that the song would take over my name. So, when I was seeking the face of God for my songs, he gave me, ‘Chioma me Chioma’, and it was through that song I got my stage name. An inner voice told me to add ‘Jesus’ and that’s how ‘Chioma Jesus’ came into existence. That was the name of my first album that was released 15 years ago.
It’s the Holy Spirit that gives me inspiration. Once I get the chorus and title of the song, I write it down and when I’m in the studio, I tell the engineers to record me. I’m tireless when it comes to singing.”
