Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Ghanaian Afro-pop star Sista Afia has revealed that she plans to return to her nursing career at the age of 40, even as she continues to make waves in the music industry. The singer, who was a registered nurse in the UK before pursuing music full-time, shared her future aspirations during a recent interview on Onua TV.
Currently focused on her music career, Sista Afia explained that her nursing profession is on hold but remains a part of her long-term plans. “Right now, I’m a full-time musician, and nursing is on hold. When I get to the age of 40, I’ll go back to nursing,” she stated. Adding a touch of humor, she joked, “It’s been a while since I stopped school; I’ve even forgotten how to spell ‘Chloroquine.’”
Known for chart-topping hits like “Jeje” and “Slay Queen,” Sista Afia has become one of Ghana’s most prominent voices in the Afro-pop genre. However, her roots in healthcare remain close to her heart. She studied nursing at the Reverend John Teye Memorial Institute in Ghana before moving to the UK to further her education. In 2015, she returned to Ghana to chase her musical dreams, leaving her nursing career behind for now.
Sista Afia’s revelation highlights her versatility and determination to balance her passions. While music is her primary focus, her openness to returning to nursing later in life reflects her commitment to making a meaningful impact in multiple fields. Fans of the singer can expect more hits in the coming years, but they may also see her swapping the stage for scrubs in the future.
