Mentor 3 winner, Erico will on April 30, 2017 launch his fifth (5th) album titled ‘M’ayanwu’ which literary means ‘Close shave’.

The ‘M’ayanwu’ song is a testimony of what he has been through in the past two years. It will be launched at the Strong Living Fire International Church, Dansoman KeepFit, Accra at 3:30pm.

Erico who is noted for his touching worship medley narrated to Kasapafmonline.com how God saved him after battling strange ailment for two years.

“It all started a year ago (2016) after I was diagnosed of some infections in my stomach. I was hospitalised at seven health centres (Ridge Hospital, Mab Hospital, Korle Bu Polyclinic, Amen Scientific Hospital, Lapaz Community Hospital, Holy Trinity, Dome Community Hospital, Taifa Medical Centre and other Herbal Hospitals.) and prayer centres but couldn’t diagnose what exactly was wrong with me.

“Later, I was told it was typhoid, other medical centres also said it was Kidney infections because I couldn’t urinate well and was urinating every 10 minutes so they had to fix a tube in my penis. I treated typhoid for a year but couldn’t get better, I was almost paralysed. I was still on treatment and got tired of taking medicines so finally decided to seek God’s intervention in prayers. We went to a prayer camp called ‘Taabiri Kooko Asefo’ where we prayed like mad men then later met a man called Abraham Ben Moshe who introduced a medicine to me following which I was healed of all ailments.

“I had a dream I was singing this new song ‘M’anyanwu’ that will be launched on April 30, 2017. I just want to tell everybody that with God all things are possible. I thought I will be put on dialysis but my God intervened on my behalf.”

Gospel artistes to minister at the album launch include S.P Kofi Sarpong, Joyce Blessing, Piesie Esther, Francis Amoo, Florence Obinim, Brother Sammy and many others.

Erico prior to participating in TV3’s Music Talent hunt was already a singer, who moved from church to church to minister to people, and that his participation in Mentor was just an opportunity that uncovered him.
