In an interview with Showbiz, Nii Frans real name Francis Quarcoopome, said the songs on the album were meant to offer thanks to God for his faithfulness throughout the years and difficult stages of life.
“There is always a reason to be thankful irrespective of the situation you find yourself. God has been good to me personally and to the country as a whole. He kept us throughout the election period and so we have every reason to be thankful,” he said.
Francis who works as a photographer told Showbiz that he discovered his passion for singing at a very early age but only decided to make an album this year. He revealed that the album, Shidaa will be launched tomorrow, Friday, 23 December at the All Saints Anglican Church, Adabraka in Accra.
“Some of the proceeds from the album launch will be used to support underprivileged children at the Children’s Ward of the Accra Psychiatric Hospital.
“Throughout the years, I have always marked my birthday with the children at the hospital and I intend to spend Saturday, December 24 with them as well but this time I hope to provide them with items bought with some of the proceeds from the launch in order to make their day festive,” he said.
He urged Ghanaians to offer support to the less privileged in society. “The Bible entreats us in Proverbs 19:17, that ‘whoever has pity on the poor lends to the LORD, and he will repay him for his good deed,’ he said.
