Renowned Gospel musician Celestine Donkor has responded to her exclusion from the 2024 Telecel Ghana Music Awards (TGMA) nominations.

In an interview on Hitz FM, on Thursday, Celestine Donkor said her snub was expected as her submission fell short of the criteria for approving nominations.

She explained that the TGMA board recognises works released in the early months of the year under review for the selection process.

However, the song she submitted, ‘Come and See’ was released in November, just a few weeks to the closing window.

Despite not getting any nominations, Celestine Donkor affirmed her support for her fellow gospel artistes.

She is throwing her weight behind Nacee, who is a contender for the ultimate Artiste of the Year category, stating that a win for any Gospel artiste is a triumph for the entire genre.

Celestine Donkor, in advance, extended her congratulations to all the nominees and potential awardees, acknowledging their hard work and dedication to their craft.

She emphasised her willingness to perform at the awards ceremony if given the opportunity.
