Dr. Sonnie Badu is facing accusations, alleging that his reported injury was fake, and it was a tactic to generate attention for his event, “RHYTHMS OF AFRICA,” held on December 9th at the Grand Arena in Ghana.
On 1st December 2023, the Gospel singer shared news about a domestic incident he was indulged in, apologizing to churches and media for missing a prior engagement due to a major surgery.
