Sinach becomes first African to top Billboard Christian songwriters chart

Sinach

Osinachi Joseph, popularly known as Sinach, has become the first African to top the Billboard Christan songwriters chart after spending seven weeks atop the chart.

The 47-year-old shared her excitement over the feat on Twitter on Wednesday.

’’So apparently We have been No 1 on billboard USA for Christian songwriter for 7 weeks !! Look at God!! First Black person. First from Africa … So grateful to God!! Thank you @billboard#loveworld @joe_egbu…’’ she tweeted.

The chart rankings are based on both online and physical sales, radio play and online streaming.

Davido achieved a similar feat in 2019 when his 2017 song, ’Fall’, became the longest-charting Nigerian pop song in Billboard history.
