Abortion saga: Ghanaian stars, Sarkodie, Yvonne Nelson release bombshells  

Ghanaian celebrities, rapper Michael Owusu Addo, popularly known as Sarkodie, and actress Yvonne Nelson have set social media on fire over an abortion saga. 

Singer Sarkodie’s estranged girlfriend, actress Nelson in her published book ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’ some week ago narrated how she aborted her first pregnancy because she is fatherless and did not expect to give birth to a child whose father [Sarkodie]; had refused to accept responsibility.

In a chapter titled ‘A Difficult Decision’, Yvonne Nelson stated that Sarkodie “said he couldn’t keep the pregnancy at that time.”

In a switch reaction to his song ‘Try Me [Raw]’ released on Wednesday, Sarkodie debunked the claim of impregnating Yvonne Nelson and refusing to take responsibility.

In the viral video of the song that made social media abuzz, the rapper claimed to have asked Yvonne Nelson to keep the pregnancy even though he wasn’t ready.

Sarkodie further added that he was not the one who pushed the actress to abort the fetus.

“Yes, I wasn’t ready but then I told you to keep it. So don’t make it seem like I was pushing you for abortion,” he raps in the first verse of the song.

He raps in the song that he had made a decision to take a couple of things to the grave but the actress forced her to disclose what transpired between them.

In his rap, Sarkodie commended Yvonne Nelson’s for the book he described as “great” but got patronage because of the negative she spilled.

Yvonne Nelson in her reply to the singer’s song said the claim that she aborted the pregnancy because she needed to complete school was false, adding that she completed her university education before he got pregnant for Sarkodie. 

According to her, Sarkodie never told her to keep the pregnancy.

She stated that the singer failed to accept the pregnancy because he was in a serious relationship with another lady whom he was planning to lead to the altar.
