In a shocking twist, to the gospel music fraternity, renowned reverend Benjamin Dube has announced his departure from the Spirit of Praise collective.

In a statement, Dube announced his exit from the popular gospel collective, which released an album, “Spirit of Praise 10,” last year.

“Through this platform, countless lives have been touched, worship has been elevated, and the message of Christ has reached multitudes both locally and globally.

“However, as seasons change, so do assignments Rev.Dube believes that the time has come to focus fully on the next phase of his calling, which includes expanding his personal ministry, mentoring the next generation of gospel artists, and pursuing projects aligned with the unique mandate God has placed on his life.”

The statement emphasized that Dube remains “eternally grateful to Spirit Music Group, the Spirit of Praise teams and the owners of Spirit of Praise, Aubrey Peacock and Matthew Nkabine for the years of fruitful partnership, mutual respect and impact ministry.”

Dube’s departure has certainly left many fans shocked, especially those who had come to love him as a part of the group. He has been a part of the group, with his soul-stirring voice and spiritual leadership shaping its identity since its inception in 2008.
