Renowned Gospel Musician, Dr. Sonnie Badu talked about the difficulties he had on his first trip to the United Kingdom.
The gospel singer claimed that after being driven from the pastor’s house and persuaded to travel to the UK to assist him in his ministry, he was abandoned and alone.
Giving a motivational speech to a church group, Sonnie Badu narrated how difficult life was back then and how little food there was in a day.
He acknowledged that he was homeless and that he occasionally slept outside in the cold on the streets of London as well as in a car for a spell.
He claimed that when people are gone from home, hunger drives them to steal food items from their refrigerators.
“I have struggled in life. I was homeless in London. I slept in one car for a while. Sometimes I have to walk in the cold for five hours at night. At some point I would wait for people to leave home then I would steal some food items from their fridge. I was finding it difficult to feed,” Sonnie Badu recounted.
The ‘Baba’ hitmaker said he was worried by his predicament and question God’s existence in his life and asked him to overturn his situation while still maintaining faith in him [God].
“So, I told God is this how he is going to watch me suffer. Can he not bless me with just a song to change my fortunes? Is this how I am going to sing for pastors to use me anyhow? But if God remembers you, he as remembered you. I never lost faith in him,” Badu stated in a video posted by an Instagram account with username @ thosecalledcelebss.
Sonnie Badu indicated that all these life struggles are the inspirations behind most of his songs.
