"Why My Father Disowned Me" – Gospel Music Veteran, Panam Percy Paul (Pics) by owukpa(m): 9:17am On Jul 28, 2019 |
Veteran gospel music minister, Panam Percy Paul, has revealed how his father disowned him for choosing to go into gospel music ministry for 19 years. Born Bakulipanam Percy Paul Mokungah, widely known by his stage name Panam Percy Paul, this Nigerian gospel singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist whose musical career spans 40 years. He was born to Major Paul Harley, an officer in the Nigerian Army, and composer Paulina Paul Mokungah in 1957. Most of his songs have been choreographed by children in many churches within and outside the country. Speaking on Friday during the 2019 Music Ministers Conference tagged ‘The Minstrel’ at The Glory Dome, Dunamis International Gospel Centre, Airport Road. Abuja, the iconic singer said he father was forced to accept him after he became a household name in the nation and beyond. Panama, 62, a native of Adamawa State recalled thus during the programme monitored by IDOMA VOICE:  “My father looked at me and said I have gone mad, because I left everything only to sing. “My father said to me, don’t come back home no more. My father even struck out my name from his will and said to me ‘you are no longer my son.’ It was a time of pain, a time of grief and a time of gloom. But ladies and gentlemen, that is not the end of my story. “A few years later; and one day, the elders of my people sat down in a meeting in the city of Yola, Adamawa State Nigeria. And one elder stood up and said, my name is Retired General so so and so, another elder stood up and intoeduced himself that his name was Retired Air Vice Marshal so so and so.  “But when it got to the turn of my father, he stood up and said, ‘how do I introduce myself to you? “And he asked the elders, how many of you know the man called Dr. Panam Percy Paul? And they all raised their hands. And my father for the first time in 19 years proudly said, ‘he is my son.’ Source...http://www.idomavoice.com/2019/07/photos-from-2019-music-ministers-conference-at-dunamis-glory-dome.html 48 Likes 1 Share

Its amazing the power at the disposal of parents. The power to mould and shape destinies. Mentoring and parenting are the greatest responsibilities out there. Its distasteful that parents are yet to collectively grasp the gravity of the task at hand. Strewn here and there are tales of parents' high handedness in the discharge of their duties. Parents are not meant to clone their kids in their own image but to act as guides and sign posts in helping their kids find their way in life. That a parent is an accomplished doctor does not imply the children would become doctors. Everyone born into family displays unique characters and qualities. Parents should understand this and play the role of a cheer leader in assisting the kids reach their preferred life path. Parenting on be beans 24 Likes 2 Shares

Africa's greatest gospel singer. How can I forget the days of cassettes and pure instrumentals, not the autotunes of today. Kudos to the present generation too though, many of whom must have drawn their inspiration from this great gospel music minister. 61 Likes 1 Share |
