Yaw Siki has disclosed that it is practically impossible for his children to listen to or play his old secular songs at home due to the values guiding his household.
Speaking in an interview on Hitz FM on Tuesday, April 28, Yaw Siki explained that his home environment is deliberately structured around gospel content, leaving little room for secular music.
When asked how he would feel if he heard his children playing and dancing to his old songs, Yaw Siki admitted he likes the music but quickly emphasised that such a situation would not arise.
“I like the song, I like it… but I know it’s not possible. In my home, it will not happen. It cannot happen,” he stated.
According to him, the decision is intentional and rooted in his personal experiences before he became a minister.
He noted that what people consume—whether through music, television, or radio—can have a strong influence on their lives.
“I got corrupted through what I listened to and what I watched. So based on my experience, I’m raising my children based on that,” he explained.
Yaw Siki further disclosed that he closely controls the type of content played in his home, ensuring that it aligns with his beliefs and values.
“I’m in control of my TV. When we turn it on, it’s gospel. The same applies to radio—my wife listens, but it’s always tuned to gospel stations,” he said.
While acknowledging that some non-gospel content may be harmless, he maintained that it is difficult to monitor everything children are exposed to, which is why he prefers to limit access altogether.
“Some content may be clean, but some can be corrupt or misleading. We can’t sit and scan every channel, so it’s better to stick to platforms that are strictly gospel,” he added.
