She hails from Elmina in the Central Region, though she was born and raised in Santasi, Kumasi. She spent several years in the UK, where she earned a Master’s degree in Nursing before choosing music as her passion. Her breakout song “Jeje,” featuring Shatta Wale and Afezi Perry, catapulted her into the limelight, and she’s since become one of Ghana’s most dynamic female artists with hits like “Slay Queen” and “Weather.” Sista Afia is the niece of renowned Archbishop Nicholas Duncan-Williams, but her personality is far from conservative—she’s bold, stylish, unfiltered, and proud of her body and voice. In addition to her music, she’s ventured into business with a restaurant and a shisha lounge, and she operates a charity initiative called the Sista Cooks Foundation. Currently residing in East Legon, her net worth is estimated between $1–5 million.
