Olakira recounts sleeping with four choristers
Ade Ebenezer, also known as Olakira, a Nigerian artist, has disclosed that he was kicked out from church for having intimate relationships with four choristers.
During a recent interview with TVC, the 32-year-old music producer recalled the incident. He admitted to have been fired from the church for sleeping with choir members.
According to the ‘Maserati’ singer, the incident caused him to become depressed and forced him to seek therapy.
He also described how, after being expelled, he went from being a gospel singer to seeking a career in secular music.
In his own words,
“I had my own issues as well. I got depressed at some point. I was unable to focus at some point. Everybody has their own thing. I was a gospel artiste some years back. And I had some experience with ladies. I was in the choir and I had stuff with about four choristers and I was sacked from the church.
“You know when you sing in church and you are playing keyboard people get inspired. And, when I came into the secular world, the whole thing was just crowded. It was a lot. I went for therapy. I needed to get out of that space because it was very distracting.
“I was raised by a single mother. So, I feel more comfortable around ladies than guys.”
