UK-based Ghanaian gospel sensation, Sonnie Badu has spoken about how he was neglected by his colleagues within the gospel fraternity following his injury in 2023.

According to him, no gospel musician checked up on him while he was on his sickbed, experiencing the most devastating moments of his life. 

Sharing his experience on Joy Prime’s late afternoon show, Changes, the singer indicated that he never anticipated such an attitude from them, considering the fact that they are all part of the gospel community 

“Not even a single one checked up on me. Personally, if I heard that somebody had gone through something or seen it, I would have been calling. I don’t care whether I’m cool with you or not. But not even one person did,” he told Roselyn Felli on Wednesday.

Upon realising that no one cared about his health, he motivated himself to persevere and finish the project he had commenced.

 “When I realised that not even a single gospel artist colleague or pastor would check up on me, that’s when I said even if I died, nobody cares; I have to rise up quickly,” he continued.

Nevertheless, he noted that a few pastors, including Nigerian Pastor Jerry Eze, Prophet Agyemang Prempeh of Ultimate Charismatic Centre, Apostle Amoako Atta of the Lord's Parliament Chapel International, and Pastor Kingsley, showed him love by reaching out to him on some social media platforms.

That notwithstanding, the ‘My Confidence’ song composer felt inspired by the apathy to recover rapidly and move ahead with his December Rhythms of Africa concert. 

On the day of the concert, the injury became worse, but he endured the pain and gave his best performance at the event.

The musician is thankful to God for His healing grace and mercy, adding that the fall was initially toward his head but then shifted to his leg, which could have resulted in death.

Some Ghanaian social media users trolled him after the incident, alleging that the injury was faked to draw traction to his concert. However, Mr. Badu said he did not blame them, as he felt it was in Ghanaians' nature.

“Ghana like seeing is believing, and I’m going to show them what I went through. It’s ugly,” he said.
