Ghanaian musician Ohemaa Mercy recently opened up about the reasons behind her divorce, sharing a compelling account in an interview with CookieTee on TV3.

During the COVID-19 pandemic, she spent three months in prayer on the mountains, seeking clarity from God.

It was through this intense period of reflection and spiritual connection that she felt led to pursue a divorce in order to dedicate herself more fully to her ministry.

"I remember when I was going through divorce. During COVID-19, I depended solely on God for direction, I had a strong covenant with him. I will go to the mountains to pray for three months and I really wanted to hear what the Lord will say about what is going on around me. So when I heard it clearly, I took that bold step. I had the confirmation from God, If I didn't, I wouldn't have done it.

"I give God the glory because I am divorced but this is the time I have seen the hand of God so strong on my life, even more than when I was married,” she established.Ohemaa Mercy described how, after making this decision, she felt a profound sense of God's presence and blessings in her life, even more so than when she was married.

She emphasized that her former husband was supportive of her choice and they agreed to co-parent their children while maintaining mutual support.“My partner understood that we had to do things that way. I told him we needed a break and he totally understood. We agreed to support each other and take care of the kids. If I’m facing challenges, we discuss them. My priority is to honour God, and that’s why we decided on this path,” she added.

They continue to have a positive and supportive relationship, speaking daily and working together for the well-being of their family.
