UK-based Ghanaian gospel artist Sonnie Badu has expressed his feelings of neglect by colleagues in the gospel community following an injury he suffered in 2023.
In an interview on Joy Prime Sonnie Badu shared his disappointment and revealed that during one of the most challenging periods of his life, no gospel musicians reached out to check on him while he was bedridden.
“Not even a single one checked on me. If I hear that someone is going through a tough time, I would reach out, regardless of our relationship. But not one person did,” he said.
Further, Recognising the lack of concern for his well-being, he found the motivation to persevere with his projects.
“When I realised that not a single gospel artist or pastor would check on me, I thought, even if I died, nobody cares; I have to rise up,” he said.
Despite this, he noted that a few pastors, including Nigerian Pastor Jerry Eze, Prophet Agyemang Prempeh of Ultimate Charismatic Centre, Apostle Amoako Atta of Lord’s Parliament Chapel International, and Pastor Kingsley, did reach out to him on social media, showing their support.
