I never imagined I'd ever be pregnant, Gifty Anti says

Ace Ghanaian journalist and CEO of GDA Concepts Limited, Gifty Anti, has said she never imagined the possibility of ever being pregnant.

She was hasty to give adoration to God for the miracle of a pregnancy at her age. She is now 47.

Gifty Anti gave this testimony during the 9th anniversary of her stellar television program, The Standpoint, during the annual Women Praise Concert dubbed ‘Women called to Worship’.

The programme dwelled on the intriguing testimonies of popular female Gospel artists like Ohemaa Mercy, Becky Bonnie, Cynthia McColley among others.

She confessed during the program that she was not expectant of a pregnancy in her marriage.

"My husband and I had a long conversation about the possibility of pregnancy before we married and he was content with the fact that we may never have children’’ she said.

She added that she was under no pressure from the family of his husband to forcefully get pregnant.

"I thank God for the family of my husband for their immense understanding through it all. I never had to go through the agony other people went through’ she thankfully acknowledged," she said.

Anti, who got married to Nana Ansa Kwau IV, the chief of Akwamu Adumasa, recounted the distress she had been through at the hands of people who had ridiculed her through the years as a barren woman.

Latest of such unkind words hurled at her, she recalled, was by an unanimous group accusing her of making a fuss of her pregnancy while some of her colleagues already had grandchildren.

“That very comment really got to me but the wise words of some friends calmed me down” she said.

The rumors of Anti’s pregnancy went viral on social media Friday. Pulse.com.gh can confirm that the woman who has championed excellence on Ghanaian television is seven months pregnant.

The host of Standpoint is also the founder of the ‘Girl in need foundation’ a Non governmental organization that aims at uplifting young girls in abject poverty in deprived communities.

As part of the event, funds were raised toward the Girl in need foundation.
