Sista Afia Opens Up About Feeling Unfairly Treated by TGMA Board
Ghanaian singer Sista Afia has emotionally opened up about what she describes as years of “sabotage” and unfair treatment from the Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) board.
Speaking on the issue, the award-winning musician expressed disappointment over repeatedly being overlooked despite releasing successful songs and putting significant effort into her craft.
According to Sista Afia, some of her biggest songs failed to receive nominations even when they performed strongly among music fans.
“The downplay on my efforts hasn’t been fair,” she reportedly stated while reflecting on her frustrations with the awards scheme.
The singer also questioned why certain artistes appear to receive recognition more easily while others continue to struggle for acknowledgment despite consistent work.
Sista Afia revealed that she remained silent for a long time because she did not want to create tension within the industry, but admitted the situation has been emotionally painful.
The “Asuoden” hitmaker previously raised concerns after her popular collaboration with Kuami Eugene and Shatta Wale reportedly failed to secure TGMA nominations despite its popularity.
Her latest comments have sparked renewed conversations online about transparency, fairness, and favoritism within Ghana’s award systems.
While some fans sympathized with her frustrations and praised her honesty, others argued that award decisions are based on specific criteria and industry processes.
Despite the disappointment, Sista Afia remains one of Ghana’s most recognized female artistes, known for songs such as:
- Jeje
- Asuoden
- Weather
- Paper
and several high-profile collaborations within the Ghanaian music industry.
