Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has revealed he nearly died from a drug overdose while studying at the University of Lagos.

He said he called his mother to fly him back to Abuja during the incident and has since quit drugs after one final relapse.

“I was a very bright student while studying at the University of Lagos. But I was indulging in illicit drugs. One day, I took it and almost died. I called my mother to book my flight to return to Abuja. After that incident, I only took drug once before quitting,” he stated in a recent episode of the Tea With Tay podcast.

Odumodublvck thanked God for overcoming drug addiction and warned youths to avoid illicit substances, stressing that not everyone gets the chance to quit.

“I’m grateful because there are some people that went into that life [illicit substance consumption] and they didn’t make it out. Some people didn’t make it alive, some had lost people to it like they died because of drug abuse. Some even committed suicide due to drug overdose. I’ve seen a pregnant woman and her husband battling drug addiction. It’s really terrible!”
