Ghanaian songstress with the highest nomination for the 22nd edition of the VGMA 2021,Adina Thembi has expressed her concerns about why she should step away from music after she gets pregnant.Her record for 10 nominations for the 2021 VGMA precedes that of the late Ebony Reigns ,where Ebony got 7 nominations and won 4 out of it in the 2018 VGMA. Adina really proved her genuine womanhood and has empowered other women not to give up easily but continue with their work after they conceive till at a particular point.Adina was on Ahosepe Xtra Show with Sista Sandy on Adom TV where she stated she will continuously perform after her pregnancy until her doctor at a particular point says she should hold on.This popped up after Sista Sandy asked her whether she thinks after she conceives will “slow” her down or not.Adina said,”I think apart from entertainment industry, even in offices people don’t want to employ women because of maternity leave and all. For me, I want to proof that thing wrong. I don’t believe because you are a woman you have to take a full break, she said,” I wanna be pregnant and be performing until I can’t any more. I would want the doctor to tell me that. After birth, I would still like to be working”
