Renowned Nigerian gospel singer Nathaniel Bassey has shared an emotional testimony about his wife’s painful journey through five miscarriages, including an ectopic pregnancy.
Bassey made the revelation in the early hours of Friday while leading the ongoing October 2025 edition of the Hallelujah Challenge, his globally streamed midnight worship session.
According to the worship leader, despite going through intense personal trials, he continued to minister to others through the Hallelujah Challenge.
“My wife will have to forgive me. Do you know there were times during the Hallelujah Challenge when we had a miscarriage, and nobody knew? I would still come online to praise and dance,” he said.
He further revealed that at one point, while his wife was hospitalized with an ectopic pregnancy, he would leave her bedside to host the worship session before returning to the hospital.
“A few years ago, she was in the hospital with an ectopic pregnancy. I would leave, lead praise and worship online, then return to the hospital, and the nurses attending to her would tell me, ‘It was powerful tonight.’ Not one, not two, not three or four pregnancies, but five,” Bassey recounted.
The October 2025 Hallelujah Challenge runs for 25 days, from October 7 to 31, with each day’s session starting at 11:59 p.m.
Nathaniel Bassey, known for hit gospel songs such as Imela, Onise Iyanu, and Olowogbogboro, has been married to his wife, Sarah Bassey, since 2013.
