It is said that the speed of a man is determined by what is chasing him. Many are the circular celebrities in Ghana who have given their lives to Christ after some strange encounter.
The new circular celebrity to have made a new change into the body of Christ is Moesha Boduong.
Moesha Buduong is a Ghanaian TV presenter, actress, and model who is also known for granting a controversial interview to CNN reporter Christiane Amanpour on sex, love, and gender issues.
She took to her Instagram handle to announce her repentance and how the new environment of Christ is much much more conducive than the dungeon she was in.
In her live video, she said:
“Hi guys, I’m super excited. God is so good. The best thing that has ever happened to me is knowing God. And since I gave my life to Christ, I have this inner peace and joy that money can not buy.
Having to serve the Lord is one of the best things in the world”
She added that her name will no longer be Moesha Buduong, because, ” for he that is in Christ is a new creation, the old is gone, alas, the new has come”. She made known her new name, which is, Mauricia Buduong. She claims that is her original name. The Moesha Buduong was just her showbiz name.
In her video, she never ceased acknowledging the fact that God has to be good to her.
“God has done so many wonderful things in my life. I cannot wait to share it all with you. God is good, and this is the best feeling in the world. Getting to know God is one of the greatest. You will never regret it. I have so much peace, joy and happiness. I can’t really explain.” She said.
In the society we tend to find ourselves, controversial circular celebrities do not easily convert, unless through a great encounter. Most circular celebrities gave their lives to Christ after surviving a gory accident. Just like Yaw Siki of “Wup3 dodo fame”.
The cause of Moesha who is now Mauricia being born again isn’t known yet.
But one Clement Asamoah Yeboah tends to know the cause. On his Facebook handle, he wrote:
“Your favourite celebrity wants to get married but her in-laws are not happy with her social media lifestyle so she is giving her life to Jesus by force…. now she wears “Kaba”…
She has given her life to Christ-like Ofori Amponsah.
And OH! She’s been asked to attend the boy’s church so they can monitor her growth in Christ. We hope and pray it stays like that, for better or worse.”
As to this being the main cause and call for her repentance, it isn’t known yet.
