Award-winning Ghanaian actress, Yvonne Nelson, has revealed that she aborted a pregnancy for rapper, Sarkodie, following a short relationship in 2010.
She made this known in her book titled, I am not Yvonne Nelson which launched over the weekend in Ghana.
The actress said at the time, Sarkodie had shown prospects of being a music Icon in Ghana but was still dependent on his mother at the time. She noted that as soon as she confronted him with the news of the pregnancy, Sarkodie rejected it, leaving her to seek an abortion.
Nelson recalled aborting the pregnancy following several attempts but deemed it one of the most regrettable mistakes in her life.
She wrote; “I wasn’t the only one responsible for the situation, so I called the man whose potent seed had germinated in me. His name is Michael Owusu Addo, a renowned Ghanaian musician who is better known as Sarkodie”
“Sarkodie was a budding musician with the potential to become one of the biggest artists in Ghana and beyond. At the time, however, the future looked uncertain, and his way through the maze of life still appeared too foggy to predict. Success was not guaranteed. He was still living with his mother and was not ready to carry a burden while he was being carried by his mother.
