Having worked in the electronic media for a long time, Pat
Mohie is now in the music industry to answer a divine call.
Molie whose debut album is entitled: Keeper of my heart is
a graduate of Mass Communication from Uzor Polytechnic, Delta
State, she hinted that the album is a true reflection of her
belief in God.
Mohie, who worked as a continuity announcer in Radio Nigeria
2 with the likes of Jones Usen, Godwin Asuquo, Jacob Akinyemi
Johnson, Willie Egbe, Ndidi Osaka, among others, revealed
to Daily Sun that her mission is to connect
people to God through worship songs.
“ It is my calling, in fact I would soon be 20 years
in the ministry. And it took me this long to come out with
an album because there is time for everything on earth. I
am an evangelist and I want people to understand the power
of worship and also help to connect people to God.”
The evangelist added that her father, Prince P.S Erijo, is
a musician hence rustic music runs in her family. She recalled
her days in the secondary school when she used to play music
and table tennis for the school.
Now married to Pastor Patrick Mohie, the artiste said her
kind of music is strictly soul worship with a 10- tracker
comprising songs like Holy! Holy! Holy! Joy of my desire,
Forever Mourning into dancing among others.
She had this to say about what inspired her to sing as well
as her target audience. “ I get inspired everyday but
most significantly when I find myself in a place of worship.
My target audience is everybody who loves worship and likes
to connect with his or her maker.”
The actress and script writer also stated that she believes
in songs that strenghten one through life and which is used
in worshipping God who is the only keeper of life.
Molie said the audio and video CD are now in the market.
