Nigerian rapper Odumodublvck has shared his past battle with drug addiction, recalling how he almost lost his life to drug overdose while studying at the University of Lagos.
In an interview with Taymesan, the musician revealed that the terrifying incident forced him to drastically cut down on substance use, only indulging once more before quitting for good.
“I was a very bright student while at the University of Lagos. But I was into illicit drugs. One day, I took it and almost died. I called my mother to book a flight for me back to Abuja. After that incident, I only used drugs once more before finally stopping,” he said.
Odumodublvck expressed deep gratitude for overcoming that phase of his life and now uses his platform to warn young people about the dangers of drug abuse.
He cautioned against substance use, citing examples of people who have lost their lives or loved ones because of addiction.
