Gospel musician Nana Yaw Boakye, widely known as MOG Music, recently opened up about the heart-wrenching loss of his 7-month-old baby in an interview with MzGee on Just Being Us.
In an emotional revelation, he recounted the heart-wrenching events that led to the loss and how he and his wife, despite their grief, turned to their faith for strength.
“We got married and for almost a year, there was no issue, so, I mean, my wife was very worried because, you know, when it looks like you and a certain group of people get married around the same time and every one of them, this one says, ‘I am pregnant,’ this one says, ‘I am pregnant,’ and you see the stomachs popping up, then she gets worried like people are asking, ‘When is it going to happen? You guys, what are you waiting for?’ You know, so she got very agitated.”

Though MOGmusic’s assurances worked and his wife’s prayers to conceive were answered, the couple’s expectation was short-lived as the fetus could not live beyond the 7 months of gestation.
“So she was at work and she called me; it was a Monday morning, I remember, she called me around 11 and she said, ‘Baby, I have not heard the baby kick the whole day,’ and I was like, ‘Errmm, that’s a problem, but let me call my mum.’”
MOG narrates how the nurse who scanned his pregnant wife for the baby’s heartbeat reaction got him and his wife devastated. He said the nurse refused to communicate the situation and asked him and his wife to wait for the doctor who was yet to arrive.
“…Around this time, my wife couldn’t hold her tears; she was gone, and I was encouraging her. I took her to the car, sat her down, put my hands on her stomach, started calling the name of Jesus, you know, invoking this, I said, ‘Father,’ I prayed all the prayers I knew in the world hoping that our ears would hear good news.”
“Then the doctor came and he did a scan. He told us, these were his words, I remember very well… ‘I don’t know what happened but the baby is not alive.’”
