Popular singer Sinach to promote Dominica’s sustainable tourism platform

Gospel singer Sinach

Tourism Minister Denise Charles has said that Nigerian Gospel musician Osinachi Egbu, popularly known as Sinach will assist Dominica in further advancing its sustainable tourism platform.

Sinach was appointed by the Government of Dominica as the country’s global ambassador.

The Government of the Commonwealth of Dominica presented the award of Global Ambassadorship to Sinach on February 9, 2023.

“Sinach will assist us to further advance Dominica’s sustainable tourism platform which invites visitors to immerse themselves in the beauty of the Nature Island, while being respectful of our efforts to protect our natural assets,” Charles said during an interview with State-Owned Radio DBS.

According to her, Sinach has over the years formed a close bond with Dominica which makes her the perfect fit for this new role.

“She first visited Dominica in 2018 after Hurricane Maria and hosted a national gospel concert to bring hope to our affected population,” Charles stated.

She continued, “While on island she visited the state prison and Dominica infirmary where she connected, prayed, and worshiped with residents.”

Furthermore, Charles indicated that having fallen in love with Dominica, Sinach returned in 2022 with friends and family to celebrate her milestone 50th Birthday.

She described Sinach as one of the most popular gospel artistes in Africa, ”and the first gospel singer from Africa to win the song of the year at the Dove Awards. And also the first to top the billboard Christian songwriter chart for 12 weeks in a row.”

Charles went on to state that with millions of followers on social media Sinach is also named one of the top hundred most reputable persons on earth by Reputation Poll International, “and the top female artiste of the decade by the Bethlehem Hall of Fame.”

“With such an impressive resume we are honored that she has accepted this important role as Dominica’s Global Ambassador,” she said

    Well she needs to start at her homeland, she must differentiate Dominica from the Dominican Republic.
    “Sinach is also named one of the top hundred most reputable persons on earth by Reputation Poll International,” this is laughable – https://africa.businessinsider.com/local/leaders/reputation-poll-international-announces-100-most-reputable-africans-in-2023/9q56pw5. An African, not an international entity. This poll carry no significance outside Africa, and Dominica. It is time Dominicans stand up to the PM and let him know that they are not fools, they are more in number than his cabal and it is time that he is taken down a notch, humble him a bit. This move is will be of no benefit to Dominica and Dominicans, but to the woman, the PM and his cabal. Sustainable tourism platform, Dominica’s Tourism Sector is deficient, the work toward sustainability is progressing at a snail’s pace. Wake Up Dominicans!!!!

    So there’s no person in Dominica who could be chosen for that office? Are we not important people and deserve the best out of our own country? How much of the people’s own money is being spent on this woman? The prime minister has just shown us again that we have no worth and people from other countries are better than us. We keep following him like blind bats and he keeps putting his veil over our eyes. My people, when are we going to wake up? Stop letting Skerrit have all that control. Rise up and demand the
    respect that we need!!!

      Well to be honest what celebrity do you know that is from Dominica? while she is absolutely the wrong person, unless you only want to attract rich Africans, the goal is to use someone of popularity, like how Antigua used Robert Dinero, to attract other investors or even just attention to the country. However, Sinach is a poor choice.

      In my opinion. I personally think she knows our government has money, so she uses Melissa’s gullible nature to constantly get money from Dominica. When she want a money and a trip is just call Melissa and say she want to do a concert for Dominica on behalf of the government. Or i will do this and that for Dominica. Now all of a sudden you want to be ambassador? Let those people fool all you still. the fool that heading Tourism does like to follow Mel so she down for that vibes or anything Mel. Sinach will bleed the country dry while calling Jesus name and all you will still be there singing praise while all the money stolen under all you nose. Bravo…

    The kid is back: You know, Dominica will forever remain stagnant in backwardness and poverty! One of the reasons are that Roosevelt administration along with Roosevelt and all it comprises are nothing more than a bunch of uneducated people!

    Just because one can read and write, count; from one to a hundred and play politician doesn’t mean they are educated or smart.

    And so, let’s review this so called Denies claimed in a sense where she declared this unknown African her tourism ambassador. Born in Nigeria; Osinachi Kalu Egbu Joseph on the 30th day of March 1973; we do not know of her educational background, we don’t know if she had any formal education secondary, or elementary.
    We are only aware that she was a worship leader as her biography states for a period of thirty (30) years.
    Now 2023 – 1973 = 50 years old, so within that period of fifty years apart from been a songwriter, and lead worshiper of what we don’t know what her educational background is?

      Continue:

      Since Sustainable tourism means an environmental program that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, when addressing the needs of visitors, industry, the environment ect, ect.

      One would hope that this so called worshiper has a trained background that this Dominica no nothing politician may believe the worshiper has and is going to use to “assist Dominica in further advancing its sustainable tourism platform.”
      Sustainable means able to be maintained at a certain rate or level; in reference to Dominica, question is how can what one does not have be maintained?

      All Denise and her political Klan are doing is simply based on nothing to aid in the development of the country; they are fantasying holding unto a floating straw down an overflowing river.
      The nonsense she presented is a fantasy of a drowning man trying to save one that is already drown!

      Every foreigner makes fools of Dominica government.

    To me that Denise Charles sounds more stupid by the minute. I guess all Madame Sincach’s followers will flock to Dominica en masse.

    Dear Miss Charles,

    Please tell us what is the expense to the already coolay treasury for this nonsensical appointment. I am sure Sinach is not in this for freeness.

      Indeed, she is completely ignorant. but the strange thing about it is Dominicans cannot see how stupid the people they vote into government are!
      All of the government ministers are ignorant people who does not have any concept of how government works, none of the idiots have any knowledge how to attract a single investor into the country, nor do they have any concept of how to utilize what we have locally to benefit the people.
      All these stupid people keep throwing in the face of the poor is agriculture, when they know it matters not how much of agriculture, we have whereas there are no market for what we produce it’s just a waste of time.
      One of the problems is that; Dominicans do not have a choice to elect their candidates, they vote for anybody Roosevelt tells them to vote for because they are voting for him personally, and not the candidate he presents.

      Roosevelt actually is the problem: When a prim: Will continue..

        Roosevelt is Dominica’s worst nightmare where it pertains to stupidity!
        Any prime minister who allows another prime minister of another country to dictate to him or her what not to build in her or his country and he took such stupid advice must be a fool!

        Roosevelt Skerrit brought Ralph Gonsalez out of St. Vincent put him in front a political podium in Dominica and have Gonzalz tell our people that in the 20st century our country doesn’t need an International Airport, all Roosevelt need to do is refurbish the dilapidated Melvill Hall terminal and install landing lights to accommodate night landings. We, all are seeing the result of that.

        The late Lester Bird, former Antigua prime minster, loaded how many LIAT aircrafts with Dominicans residing in Antigua send them home to go to Dominica to vote against the building of an International Airport in their country, because ” we doh want it!”

        Meanwhile Ralph went home and build Argyle Int. Antigua already had V. C Bird Int.

    This is the ruling administration’s mode of operation. Give passports and lofty positions to foreigners then tries to justify it with specious statements and arguments.

    Develop the main ports of entry, enhance the natural physical features of interest, clean up the environment, repair the badly battered image of the country before employing another foreigner crony.

    Popular singer to whom?
    Until I saw her picture and name on DNO, I did not know such a person existed! She is perhaps popularly known only to Denise, and Roosevelt and those who brought her to Dominica.
    Sustainable tourism means an environmental program that takes full account of its current and future economic, social and environmental impacts, when addressing the needs of visitors, industry, the environment, and host communities.
    I am very much aware that some of the idiots who writes comments against me do believe that I am a born fool: well maybe I am an idiot; but I must confess an academically educated idiot.
    However, I suggest those labor party idiots read what I conveyed and relate my quotes on sustainable tourisms and compare it to the pile of garbage Denies wrote!
    I don’t understand how people in Dominica find the nerve to vote such ignorant, dunce people into government believing they can bring any prosperity, or economic change to the country!
    Rosevelt god is a…

    Did the man behind the “Great Reset for Dominica” become the new casting director in the same old pay to play saga? For, the appointment of this new “Global Ambassador” is sequel to the appointment of a growing list of questionable and sometimes scandalous characters that may read like a diplomatic Rogues’ Gallery: Paris, George, Corallo, King, Lakschin, Olde, Zampoli, Monared, Madeuke, et al. Are Dominica’s Ambassadorial appointments on sale to the highest bidders? Is so we come?

    This deal just proves once again that most gospel artists, most preachers and most Christians don’t care about righteousness and godliness and are only concerned about money, no matter where it comes from even if they know it comes from Beelzebub. But the apostle Paul warned us with such people in Philippians 3:18:19 .
    “For, as I have often told you before and now tell you again even with tears, many live as enemies of the cross of Christ. 19Their destiny is destruction, their god is their stomach, and their glory is in their shame. Their mind is set on earthly things”
    Anyone who colludes with known ungodliness and known unrighteousness is an enemy of the cross .
    Sinach knows she does not represent Dominica or Christ in this deal but represents the corruption of Skerrit and the DLP government just as Alireza Monfared knew he was not in love with Dominica as claimed by Skerrit but rather met a bird with similar feathers. Just notice the spelling of her name Sin-ach

      I think that it is unfair to say “most Christians”. However, I see the point that you are trying to make, and the Bible does warn us against the increase of ‘false prophets’ in the last days. Judging by this type of behavior, that’s exactly what some of these people are. True Christians do not behave like that.
