The esteemed gospel artist and producer Nana Osei, popularly called Nacee, recently shared his inspiring journey of survival and overcoming adversity after being diagnosed with sickle cell disease as a child.
Speaking on Hitz FM, Nacee recounted how doctors had once forecasted a short lifespan for him, foreseeing that he wouldn’t live past his early twenties due to the severity of his condition.
Reflecting on his early years, Nacee revealed, “The doctor’s prognosis was that I wouldn’t see past 20 or 22 due to my sickle cell diagnosis at such a young age.”
Despite being raised in a Christian household, Nacee underwent a profound spiritual transformation later in life, renewing his dedication to Christ and seeking healing through prayer.
“I experienced a divine intervention in church one day,” Nacee shared. “During an altar call after the sermon, I felt compelled to step forward, questioning why I remained ill when God promised to heal. Through the pastor’s prayers and anointing, I’ve been free of medication and illness ever since.”
Nacee, renowned for his song ‘Mpaebo’ (Prayer), firmly believes in the power of steadfast faith, attributing answered prayers to unwavering belief.
He encourages fellow Christians to lean on faith as their primary resource in challenging times, drawing from his personal journey.
Having faced his own trials, Nacee is dedicated to aiding those in need, driven by gratitude for surpassing the doctor’s dire prediction. Now in his 50s, he remains thankful to God for his resilience and health.
