”My sister in-law accused me of lying about the pregnancy …meanwhile all the hospitals I visited showed that I was truly pregnant…but I was not conceiving...I really went through pains...It got to a time that everybody neglected me…one shocking thing was how the nurses taking care of me at the Police hospital got angry and neglected me while I was in labour…so I delivered Shatta Wale myself…I can recall how I was lying at de labour ward praying to God for his divine intention and finally at 9am Sunday morning I gracefully delivered Junior (Shatta Wale)”,She told Razzonline.com

According to Shatta Mama, “Shatta Wale was ordained by God to be great…he is special; that’s why it took me 13 months to give birth to him. So today being my birthday, I thank God for being alive to see my son grow to become a great artiste...I thank Ghanaians for praying for Junior”.

Shatta Mama advised the youth not to indulge in vices but work and pray harder in order to achieve their heart desires.
