Bahati expressed deep emotions and shared a heartwarming message on his Instagram, directed towards his adopted son, Morgan. In a heartfelt and lengthy post, Bahati recounted the remarkable journey they’ve taken together, from the first day he met Morgan to the present moment.
Reflecting upon a photograph, Bahati realized the remarkable transition Morgan has made into adulthood over the span of ten years. The image took him back to the moment when their paths first crossed – a day when Bahati invited ABC Children’s Home, the place of his own upbringing, to perform at his Album Launch in 2013 at NPC Valley Road. Recalling that day vividly, Bahati recounted how Morgan, merely two years old then, cried out to him, embracing him as a father figure. The memory of witnessing Morgan’s tearful departure back to the orphanage was etched into Bahati’s heart, a poignant reminder of their shared pain and struggle.
Bahati candidly shared his experience of growing up in a Children’s Home, where he knew the loneliness of not having a mother or father figure. Despite his lack of readiness, he made the decision that day to step into the role of a father and welcomed Morgan into his life as his own son. He emphasized the unbreakable bond they share, declaring that regardless of any challenges they may face, their father-son relationship is unalterable, a divine plan that stands above all worldly judgments.
Amidst the challenges of raising Morgan, Bahati acknowledged the difficulty he faced, with some women leaving him due to their unwillingness to raise a child not biologically theirs. Through it all, he expressed immense pride in Morgan for embracing him as his father, a privilege Bahati himself never had during his upbringing.
Bahati went on to share intimate moments from their journey, revealing instances when he personally cared for Morgan, cooking for him, doing his laundry, and ensuring his comfort. He divulged a secret pain, recounting how some women left him because of the commitment of raising a non-biological child. Yet, he celebrated how Morgan now has the loving mother he deserves.
The post concluded with Bahati extending an apology to Morgan for bringing him into the public eye, subjecting him to online negativity and baseless claims regarding his parentage. He recognized his own misstep in introducing Morgan to the world at a young age. However, above all else, Bahati wanted Morgan to understand that he is an invaluable gift, his firstborn, and an integral part of their family’s completeness.
