MoNuade
Singer, Songwriter and a Music Evangelist
When God says you are good enough don't doubt it, believe it and run with it. His opinion of you is what matters, no one else's does. At the end of it all, you'll give account to Him and no one else.

Gozmusic
Raising Army of Worshipers for Christ.
THE JOURNEY
In 2004, she received the vision for Gozmusic to raise an army of worshipers, who will worship God through music, in spirit, and in truth. It was a classic case of the one talent servant, she got the vision, wrote it down but she did little to pursue it.
Part of her held onto the vision but the overpowering part of her believed that she possibly couldn’t achieve it, having met and sang with incredible voices, out of which God could comfortably make His selection why her? The nudge and desire to fulfill began to grow and in 2008, she debuted a single Ebgerun Ahon, and again, out of fear of rejection and failure, she didn’t promote it any further.
​
In 2017, the need to take on the call became urgent, this time she felt blessed and privileged to have a second chance to take up the vision and run with it.
God doesn’t work with Talents he works with the meek, the teachable and the obedient.
"Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as you did in the rebellion."
Hebrews 3:15 (NIV)
