On Sunday, November 16, the Onua Showtime host attended the 2025 edition of the Worshippers Heart concert hosted by gospel singer Adom Kiki at the Calvary Charismatic Centre in Ayigya, Kumasi.

Many individuals, including veteran gospel singers Joe Mettle, Felix Marfo, and Moses O.K., attended the event.

The Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Veronique Heights, Madam Lawrencia Sarhene, was also present at the Worshippers Heart concert.

McBrown speaks on accident and hand surgeries
Performing in front of a congregation at the event, Nana Ama McBrown noted that she had endured excruciating pain due to her decade-long hand injury.

The brand ambassador for Hollantex stated that five different surgeries had been performed on her hand in multiple countries, including Ghana and Germany, since her near-fatal accident in 2013.

She said:

“You all know the problem I have with this hand. I have really suffered. For 13 good years since my accident, this hand has been surgically operated on five times. For five times, I have gone to see many doctors in Germany and Ghana.”
McBrown, who recently attended the annual GUBA awards in Barbados with Otumfuo Osei Tutu II, also recounted her 2024 car accident, which led to her hand getting broken again and required her to undergo another surgery some months ago.

The actress noted that the doctors raised serious concerns about the severity of her injuries after the accident. She expressed her gratitude to God for her life.
