I used to think social media was created by the devil - Piesie Esther
Ghanaian Gospel singer, Piesie Esther, has recently shared some intriguing insights regarding her initial perceptions of social media and how her perspective has evolved over time.
In a candid revelation, Esther admitted that during the early rise of social media, she entertained the curious belief that it might have been the creation of ‘Maame Water’, a mythical figure in Ghanaian folklore.
This whimsical notion initially deterred her from engaging with social media, as she pondered the potential negative implications if her fanciful theory held any truth.
Nevertheless, in a recent interview with Adom FM, the ‘W’aye Me Yie’ songstress expressed a newfound appreciation for the myriad advantages that social media offers.
Reflecting on her journey of understanding, Esther acknowledged the transformative role that social media now plays in our daily lives, emphasizing the need for individuals to embrace its utility for the enhancement of their respective ministries or businesses.
She highlighted the significant shift in perception from the skepticism prevalent in the past to the recognition of social media as a valuable tool for connection and outreach.
Looking ahead to the upcoming third edition of her annual ‘Made By Grace’ concert, set to take place at the prestigious Accra International Conference Centre (AICC) on Sunday, November 3, 2024, Piesie Esther is gearing up for a spectacular event.
The concert will feature a stellar lineup of renowned artists such as Amy Newman, Nana Yaw Asare, Ohemaa Mercy, Ceccy Twum, Perez Musik, and Sammy Baah, promising an unforgettable evening of soul-stirring melodies and inspirational performances.
“We always heard the negative side of social media…At first, I thought social media was for Maame Water when it became so popular.
“But eventually, I realised it’s now a part of our lives and far from what we thought, so everyone has to embrace it to help their ministry or business. Things have changed now, and it was not like how people perceived things in the past.”
