"Niko hapa kwa sababu ya imani ya wananchi.. ya Wakenya na ndugu zangu na rafiki zangu...kutokea upendo huo nafurahia na niko tayari kuwatumikia wananchi," she said.

She added that she had prayed for the presence of God at her concert, adding that people should attend and leave all their spiritual burdens there.

Shusho speaks about using Bible verses in her songs

Addressing critics who bashed her for using Bible verses in her songs, the gospel singer said that that was her way of ministering to the masses, explaining that every artist had their way of composing music.

She added that she had a Christian upbringing, which is why she sought inspiration from the Bible in her songs.

"Kila mtu ana njia yake. Hiyo ni njia yangu na ambayo naikuta kwamba ni njia nzuri na bora na ambayo inadumu.

"Mimi niliona ni njia nzuri kwa sababu ni neno la Mungu mabalo linasaidia watu kila siku...halichuji...halipungui nguvu...nikaona basis creativity yangu iwe hapo," Shusho explained.

She disclosed that she was looking to find talented artists through a talent search, who she would mentor herself in the coming year.

Pritty Vishy criticises Christina Shusho's concert lineup

Previously, there was a heated debate online over the lineup of the upcoming crossover show.

Content creator Pritty Vishy was among those who criticised the list, saying it was mostly made up of comedians.

The lineup comprised Shusho, Churchill, Ugandan comedian Salvado, comediennes Nasra and Mammito, and singers Kinoti and Ethan Muziki.

The uproar forced the organisers to tweak the line with artistes like Mercy Masika, Solomon Mkubwa and Zabron singers being added.
