Vision 1 FM s Kwame OB Nartey has not been shy about expressing his strong views on Gospel artistes collaborating with secular acts and that has created the impression that he has issues with those into secular music.
When Gospel artiste Celestine Donkor featured secular artistes Efya and Akwaboah on her single
