Gospel musician Diana Hamilton and her husbandOn Tuesday, August 8th, Dr Joseph Hamilton appeared on Hitz FM’s Daybreak Hitz show to showcase his latest song called “Say Amen.”
This was the first time that the UK-based singer’s fans got to learn about his relationship and upbringing in Ghana. Dr Hamilton shared that he had to sell newspapers on weekends during his childhood to support his schooling on weekdays.
Being a newspaper boy helped him learn how to read, and his early life in Ghana laid the foundation for his success in the medical field in the UK, despite the challenges he faced.
Diana Hamilton’s husband comes from the Eastern Region of Ghana. He was born at Kwabeng, where he received his primary education before obtaining his BECE certificate at Nsutem in the Ashanti Region.
Speaking with Andy Dosty, he identified Pope Johns Senior High School as his alma mater and noted that he earned his bachelor’s degree from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST).
Reflecting on his journey, he said, “I have come a long way, and I believe grace has sustained me. Selling newspapers and reading articles helped me learn how to read.” He acknowledged that his past experiences have equipped him to navigate challenges abroad.
He continued, “While I wouldn’t describe them as difficult times, those experiences have molded me, as I grew up in a family that sold newspapers. During holidays, I would collect newspapers and sell them, including at the Bunso area, and then attend school on Mondays.”
