“At 19, just after completing my high school education, my mother, seeing me as this exceptionally beautiful girl at home, was concerned that I might stray and bring dishonor to the family,” Shusho shared in a recent forum in Tanzania. “I must admit, I was indeed very beautiful back then, perhaps more so than I am now.”
In a separate interview, Shusho opened up about her decision to remove her wedding ring and part ways with her pastor husband, John Shusho. Speaking candidly on New Jerusalem Church TV, the renowned artiste attributed her actions to her unwavering commitment to her divine calling.
“My decision to separate was solely driven by my dedication to fulfill the mission I was called to undertake,” the “Zakayo” hitmaker explained. “It was not an easy choice, but it was necessary for the path I needed to follow.”
Dismissing the notion of being labeled as a pastor, Shusho clarified her stance, stating that she views herself as a dreamer with a specific vision to pursue.
“I prefer not to be referred to as a pastor. There’s still much more I aspire to achieve,” she asserted.
Addressing her separation from her husband, Shusho stressed the importance of understanding and supporting each other’s unique callings rather than conforming to traditional roles.
