ill quit musicfor politics, if that what it takes for me to get into office... musician 9ice speaks.


Yes, I want to leave music for politics. Next year
January, I will be 35-years-old and I’m not
praying to still be in music at that age. I am
serious about politics now. If you listen to my
music, you would notice that politics has been
part of me; it’s in my blood. When I started
initially, I talked about being your brother’s keeper,
and that’s why I studied Law at Lagos State
University before I dropped out to concentrate on
my music career. I hate when things go wrong.
When two or three people are having issues, I love
to get there to settle their differences. I have
passion for politics and it has always been in my
blood."
If you go fully into politics, most of your friends
and fans will miss you?
I will say they will love me more by the time they
see the plans that I have for them. I have so
many plans on my mind. Imagine if the late Fela
Anikulapo-Kuti was a politician, he will not just
criticize the mistakes of our leaders but also
correct them. Imagine if Wole Soyinka was to be
the president of this nation, people like him are
only preaching the truth and criticising the
government but they are not ready to get into
politics to make corrections. I am tired of
preaching, I want to contribute my own quota for
the sake of my people. We have graduates riding
commercial motorcycles (okada), selling meat etc,
their certificates are not being used but they are
shouting that the government is not doing well.
There can’t be any change if the youths don’t
stand-up now to do something to help the
country.
