Ghanaian actress Yvonne Nelson has responded to rapper Sarkodie’s song about their alleged abortion, which she claims he abandoned after impregnating her.
In her memoir, “I Am Not Yvonne Nelson,” Nelson said that Sarkodie pressured her to have an abortion after she got pregnant with his child. She said that he was not ready to be a father and that he did not want to take responsibility for the pregnancy.
Sarkodie responded to Nelson’s claims in his song “Try Me [Raw],” which was released on Wednesday.
In the song, he denies pressuring Nelson to have an abortion and says that he told her to keep the pregnancy.
In a series of tweets in response to Sarkodie’s song, the ‘I Am Not Yvonne Nelson’s author divulged that he was “trying to rubbish a pain a young woman felt.”
Sounding overly disdained, Yvonne said that ,”We both have daughters and that I would like to see what life throws at them.”

And would you have readily agreed for me to keep a pregnancy when you were in a serious relationship with another lady who would become your wife? Your street line is played out.. #thetruthsetsyoufree #theyouthislearning

Michael , you claim I was desperate to abort because I needed to complete school. In 2010 when I became pregnant, I had completed the university. Anybody can verify this. I wasn’t in school and you know it. If you want to lie, find an logical lie. #youspittinglies

In my book, i narrated how you got me pregnant, How you couldn’t wait for me to get rid of it. How you DROVE me to have an abortion. As usual, you want to use rap to rubbish a pain a young woman felt. We both have daughters, lets see what life throws at them. #triedyou
