Mpumalanga gospel musician tours Ghana with new album

Nozipho Ndzukula is preaching and singing at various venues in Ghana for two weeks. She departed on February 23.

An award-winning gospel musician, Nozipho Ndzukula, is touring around Ghana while promoting her eighth album, Pfumela, which she released on February 7. It has 11 songs on it.

Ndzukula said she will explore Ghana for two weeks, singing and preaching the Word, and shoot a music video for one of the songs on the album called “Ndza Pfumela Hosi”.

“The album features a mixture of gospel music categories, especially the groovy ones. It has some well-known hymns and other songs I composed myself, which are mostly dance and praise songs. I recorded some of the songs in Zimbabwe and others in Bushbuckridge,” she said. “I am quite excited about the trip, but it will be more like going back home because my late stepfather was Ghanaian. I will also be honouring him and his life that he dedicated by loving my mum and her children.”

The musician and pastor from Bushbuckridge, now residing in Nkomazi, said the tour will form part of her business that specialises in travel and tours around Africa, called iNozi Africa Tours.

“I love travelling, especially to nearby countries. This has inspired my music and venture into the tourism industry. The message I want to preach in Ghana is that music is an universal language, and that despite not knowing the actual language, the people will relate to the messages through the music.”

Ndzukula started singing in 2002 and released her first album in 2004. Her dedication as a musician and entrepreneur has not gone unnoticed as she has received recognition in the Sunrise Excellence Awards in 2023 and is currently nominated in four categories of the SHE Awards.

Ndzukula is also a community builder and the co-founder of an orphanage called iNozi’s House of Jubilation.
