Why I’ve Never Smoked or Taken Hard Drugs – Oxlade Opens Up

  • Oxlade has disclosed that he does not smoke or use hard drugs, attributing his lifestyle to his Christian upbringing.
  • The Ku Lo Sa hitmaker said starting his music career in the church choir shaped his values and approach to music.

Afrobeats star Oxlade has revealed that he does not smoke or use hard drugs, crediting his upbringing and religious background for his lifestyle choices. He made the disclosure during an interview with gospel singer Tim Godfrey.

The Ku Lo Sa hitmaker said he comes from a strong Christian and musically inclined family and began his music journey in the church choir. According to him, that foundation shaped his values, personality, and overall approach to music.

“I don’t smoke. I don’t take drugs. I was a choir coordinator for every age group; children’s church, teen church, the youth choir and the mass choir.

“All my life I have been in the choir. I was raised in a musically inclined family. My grandma is a deaconess and an amazing singer. My grandad used to be a multi-instrumentalist.

“My mum could dance and sing. I have a pastor in my family. My gospel music writing is actually the best. Gospel music is the best music,” he said.

The singer added, “Regardless of whichever perspective I am viewed, you should know that God is equally blessing me as much as he is blessing you. You can’t tour 40 cities with your debut album if God doesn’t want it to happen. As long as God is ordaining these steps and movements, there is really nothing for me to worry about.”

In other news…. A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has sparked widespread reactions after boldly declaring that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu cannot be defeated in the 2027 presidential election.

According to the APC figure, Tinubu’s political dominance is rooted in his firm grip on power structures across the country. He claimed the president currently has the backing of 31 state governors, full access to the federal treasury, and control over critical institutions involved in the electoral process.

In a controversial statement, the chieftain alleged that voters could be induced with ₦20,000 each to secure electoral support. He further claimed that even if voters refused such inducements, there could be alleged “glitches” in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) server, implying that the election outcome would still favour the incumbent.

“So, no one can defeat Tinubu in 2027,” the APC chieftain concluded.
