Mercy Chinwo & Judikay Reunite For New Worship Single ‘Ekele Gi’
Mercy Chinwo & Judikay Reunite For New Worship Single ‘Ekele Gi.’ Nigerian gospel powerhouses Mercy Chinwo and Judikay are joining voices once again, this time with a brand-new thanksgiving anthem titled Ekele Gi, scheduled to arrive this Friday, November 13, 2026.
The two worship ministers announced the collaboration on Instagram, giving believers a glimpse of what promises to be a joyful celebration of God’s faithfulness.
Sharing the announcement, Judikay expressed the heart behind the upcoming release, declaring: “The testimony of the faithfulness of our God is too weighty to be quiet about. Hence this Friday, we halal! This Friday, November 13th we release a sound of thanksgiving that declares one thing loud and clear: EKELE GI! (your praise). See you then 💃.”
Rooted in the Igbo language, Ekele Gi translates to “Your Praise,” carrying a message of gratitude and wholehearted worship. From the announcement, the song appears to be centred on celebrating God’s goodness and giving expression to testimonies that cannot be kept silent.
The upcoming release also marks another exciting musical reunion for the pair, who previously collaborated on the beloved 2019 worship song ‘More Than Gold’. Their earlier partnership brought together Mercy Chinwo‘s powerful, emotive vocals and Judikay’s passionate worship expression, making this latest collaboration one that believers will be eager to experience.
The announcement has already attracted an enthusiastic response, with listeners expressing excitement about seeing the two ministers share a song again. The anticipation surrounding the release has also extended to the official cover artwork, which has received plenty of attention in the comments.
Both artists have continued to make meaningful contributions to contemporary Nigerian gospel music. Mercy Chinwo, who rose to prominence after winning Nigerian Idol Season 2, has become widely recognised for worship favourites such as ‘Excess Love’ and her recent album In His Will.
Judikay, meanwhile, has built a strong catalogue of worship music through songs such as ‘Capable God’, alongside projects including Man of Galilee and All Things New. Her distinctive sound and heartfelt approach to worship have connected with believers across different parts of the world.
With November 13 fast approaching, the reunion brings another opportunity for the two ministers to lead listeners into a moment of gratitude and celebration.
Ekele Gi arrives this Friday across major streaming platforms, inviting believers to join in one unified declaration of thanksgiving. As Judikay’s announcement puts it, some testimonies are simply too weighty to keep quiet.
