Jayana has confessed that her father did not know that she was participating in the maiden edition of the Stars of the Future show.

The award-winning gospel musician admitted that she passed through to the finals without informing her father.

“I come from a strong Christian home where my late dad wouldn’t want us to even participate in entertainment-related activities. My late dad hardly watched entertainment shows on television.

“It was really a difficult moment for me to let the cat out of the bag when the competition was getting into the final stage and they needed our parents to share goodwill messages and solicit for votes. My sisters, my mum and myself had to hold a meeting with my father to break the news to him,” Jayana stated.

According to her, the musical journey started in Christ Apostolic Church International and later continued at Christian Praise International Centre where her late father, Bishop Dr Augustine Annor-Yeboah was the founder.

When she finally got the opportunity to perform at a reality show that her sisters had gotten for her, she did not know how to pass the good news to her father knowing fully well that he would not want her to continue. 

She eventually stated that she had no choice but to tell him when the organisers revealed that they had to interview family members of all contestants to solicit more votes as they move to the next stage of the competition.

Jayana, who participated in the maiden edition of the Stars of the Future talent show, competed with the likes of Irene Logan, Jane now Efya, Ramzy Prince Amui, and others.

Eventually, her late father received the good news about her participation in the maiden edition of the Stars of the Future reality show with all gladness and advised her to always uphold her Christian values.

The late Bishop Dr Augustine Annor-Yeboah sent circulars to other branches of the Christian Praise International Centre to campaign for votes for his daughter.
