‘Where There’s Unity, There’s Victory’ – Daughters of Glorious Jesus
Veteran Ghanaian all-female gospel group Daughters of Glorious Jesus have said the greatest legacy they hope to leave behind is one of unity, describing it as the foundation of their remarkable journey in the gospel music industry.
The award-winning gospel group said their enduring bond and continued success over the years are proof that unity is essential for achieving lasting success, not only in music but in every aspect of life.
Speaking during an interview on Joy Prime’s Changes show, the group explained that unity has been the driving force behind their ability to remain together as one of Ghana’s longest-serving gospel music groups.
When asked how they would like to be remembered, lead singer Cynthia Agyare Appiadu gave a simple but powerful response: “Unity.”
“Where there’s unity, there’s victory,” she said.
She explained that the principle extends beyond music, saying, “It cuts across every aspect of life—in marriage, families, workplaces, churches and wherever you find yourself. When there’s no unity, there’s no victory.”
The group also credited humility as another key pillar of their longevity and success, noting that it has strengthened their relationship and kept them together throughout their musical journey.
Edna Sarpong said they hope future generations will remember them not only for their songs but also for demonstrating that unity, humility and the fear of God can sustain a successful and long-lasting music group.
“We also want the generations to come to remember that a music group was once able to remain united through humility and the fear of God,” she said.
According to the group, their journey proves that people can work together harmoniously for decades despite life’s challenges, making their story an example worth emulating.
Adding her voice to the discussion, Monica Owusu Ansah said their relationship has grown beyond music into a family bond. Although Cynthia and Edna are biological sisters, Monica said she has become part of their family through their decades of friendship and shared ministry.
Speaking in Twi, Monica said humility and unity have remained the foundation of their success, adding that maintaining those values while raising families and pursuing individual lives has made their journey even more meaningful.
The group expressed hope that their story will continue to inspire future generations to embrace unity, humility and faith as the foundation for lasting success.

Responding to the speculation, the veteran actor dismissed the concerns and urged Nigerians to focus on more pressing national issues instead of worrying about him.

Prominent Nollywood actor Deyemi Okanlawon has opened up about a lesser-known phase of his career, disclosing that he stepped away from acting in 2019 due to poor remuneration and a deep sense of dissatisfaction with the kind of work he was being offered.
Speaking during an appearance on the CreativiTea Podcast, the Nigerian film star explained that his decision to quit acting at the time was driven by frustration over low pay and what he described as substandard productions within the industry.
According to him, the situation made him feel unfulfilled and made him question his purpose in the profession.
“I quit acting in 2019. I quit because the pay was nonsense, the work was nonsense. And I just felt like I didn’t leave a 9-to-5 job to come and do mediocre work,” he said.
Okanlawon further explained that the daily struggle of waking up to work that did not inspire him became emotionally draining. He noted that despite his passion for acting, the lack of satisfaction eventually pushed him to step away and return to regular 9-to-5 employment for a period.
“It was difficult to wake up in the morning and go to work, and what is the point of being passionate about something and then not being fulfilled by it? So I quit and then went back to 9-to-5 work,” he added.
Beyond his personal experience, the actor also used the platform to address the wider challenges faced by celebrities in the entertainment industry. He criticised the constant judgment public figures receive on social media, saying many critics do not understand the pressures that come with fame.
He stressed that celebrities are also human beings dealing with real-life struggles, just like everyone else, and deserve more empathy from the public.
Okanlawon also took issue with the growing use of the term “eyebrities,” describing it as disrespectful and harmful. He warned that such labels unfairly diminish the efforts of people in the creative industry and contribute to a culture of negativity that can hinder personal and professional success.
