Feathers are in short supply in Maryland, USA where the famed Sierra Leone gospel singer, Giileh Scholz, will be celebrated with a big honor on Sunday March 27, 2022 during the launching of her second album. She will be awarded the U.S President Joe Biden Lifetime Achievement Award and Medal of Honor.
Sierrra Leoneans have been waiting with huge anticipation for this glorious day in the life of a remarkable Sierra Leonean- born Gospel recording singer/actress and humanitarian , who after 11 exciting years will sizzle the hearts of fans and nationals of both the U.S. and her mother country, Sierra Leone, with her second album.
