Marked by her trademark spirited delivery and vocal flexibility, Ms. Okeke described her latest work as “a piece of prophetic declaration delivered to the Christian world in lyrics and melody.” “Mercy Speaks” was recorded live at her “Spirit and the Bride” concert in Abuja, Nigeria.
Ms. Okeke made the headlines with her debut, “DikeNagha” in 2019, and has gone on to produce other songs like “There’s a Shift”, “The Name of Jesus”, “This Love”, “No Name So Sweet”, “Spirit and Fire” and the latest, “Mercy Speaks.”
In addition to gospel music, Ms. Okeke is also a Bible teacher, author and communications professional by training. She is passionate about taking God’s power to the ends of the earth, a mission she fulfils through her music ministry.
