Ghanaian Actress, Yvonne Nelson has made it known that about 17 years ago, she got pregnant with Ghanaian rapper Michael Owusu Addo, popularly known as Sarkodie but she terminated the pregnancy because Sarkodie was not ready to take responsibility for the pregnancy.
On page 89 of her new book, “I Am Not Yvonne Nelson”, Yvonne was of the view that despite Sarkodie’s potential in his music career, the future looked uncertain.
The Beautiful Actress revealed that Sarkodie was still living with his mother and was not ready to carry a burden while he was being carried by his mother.

Narrating what ensued, she wrote,”I had gone for a pregnancy test to confirm what becomes the most obvious conclusion for a sexually active young woman who misses her monthly flow.
I was in the company of Karen. And when the test result was ready, I wasn’t strong enough to open it. She did and declared the verdict.”
“Charlie, it dey there!” she exclaimed.
She continued,”On an ordinary day, I would have laughed out loud and that would trigger a string of jolly conversations and jokes.
But this was no laughing matter. It was a grim piece of information that was capable of turning my world upside down. 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.”
Yvonne Nelson explained that,”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.”
She continued,”I wouldn’t call what had developed between us a serious relationship. I gravitated toward people in the music industry. For the longest time in my life, music was my getaway from all the unpleasant things life threw at me.
So, I liked his talent. We started talking and got close. Closer.”
Meanwhile, she said only three people knew about her pregnancy at the time but she later realised Sarkodie’s team knew about it.
