Noble Nketsiah, the creator of “Yesu Do,” revealed some obstacles he encountered after gaining fame in the entertainment industry.
During an interview with Emelia Brobbey on the Okukuseku Show, the gospel artist shared a story about almost being poisoned after becoming popular in the industry.
Describing the sequence of events, he explained that he journeyed to Obuasi in the Ashanti Region for a performance, but stopped at a radio station for an interview.
He mentioned that other artists from the gospel community were also part of the interview, but only the callers who insisted on speaking with him acknowledged his presence.
He was unaware that the requests from the callers caused animosity towards him by his colleagues.
“I went for a programme in Obuasi. Before that programme, I went for an interview at Obuasi, and at that time, I was very popular, so anyone who called while the show was going on wanted to speak with me. Also, I was at the radio station with my other colleagues in the industry, who got jealous because the callers didn’t recognise their presence,” he told the host.
He added that he returned to his accommodation and requested a meal.
Afterwards, he heard a commotion outside his room and went out to investigate, only to discover that a stranger had thrown away his food.
The gospel singer noticed that his food’s colour changed during the commotion, leading him to think it was poisoned and the stranger had rescued him.
“I went back to my hotel to prepare for the programme that made me travel to Obuasi. I ordered food before going to freshen up. I was in the bathroom when I heard noises in the hotel’s parlour. I went out to find out what was happening. Not knowing, a mentally ill person had entered the hotel and poured the food I ordered away. Amidst the commotion, the colour of my food changed. My food was poisoned,” he added.
