Gospel musician, Celestine Donkor, has postponed the release of her new single titled 'Favour Everywhere' following the demise of former President Jerry John Rawlings.

The song, which features Evelyn Wanjiru of Kenya, was scheduled to be released on Friday, November 13, 2020.

In a social media post by her manager, Kofi Donkor, he explained that the timing of the release is inappropriate as the ‘whole nation is mourning’.

“Bible says we should mourn with those who are mourning. Let’s remember his wife and children in prayers. A NEW RELEASE DATE WILL BE ANNOUNCED SOON,” he added.
