Sinach is Number 1 on the USA billboard for Christian songwriter currently.
The multiple award-winning gospel songwriter is also the very 1st African and the first black national to so rank with her popular song, ‘Way Maker.’ It was released on the 30th of December 2015.
‘Way Maker’ has been covered by world acclaimed Gospel artistes like Maranda Curtis, Bethel Music, Passion Worship Bank, Michael W Smith, Leeland, Christafari etc.
The song has indeed been a suiting balm at this period when the world is so tensed up with the pains, losses and hopelessness brought on by the covid19 pandemic. It has indeed, brought hope to many sufferers and grieving families.
Even as Sinach is number 1, she was surprised, to have dominated the ranking for the past 7 weeks while various versions of the song has been streamed 250 million times the world over.
According to her, “so apparently, we have been No 1 on billboard USA for Christian songwriter for 7 weeks !! Look at God !! First Black person, from Africa…So grateful to God !!
“Thank you @billboard #loveworld❤️ @joe_egbu 💕💕 @integritymusic #speedoftheHiolyGhost.”
While acknowledging the honour, @sinach thanked everyone who made it possible. In her typical unassuming manner, she said that:
“It’s not a competition however, this shows that we are making impact with what God has assigned to us.
“When you impact people with the gift of God, influencing them for Jesus, that’s something to celebrate !!
“I am so grateful to my team (band, producers and publishers).
“My home team for cheering me ! My family, my mum and siblings, my mentor, Pastor Chris and local church Loveworld.
“Thank you @Billboard !! It’s our win Africa / Nigeria ! #AFRICALis for Jesus
