Popular singer, Ade Ebenezer aka Olakira, has narrated how he was expelled from his church`s choir over his entanglement with four female members of the choir.
He said the experience affected him even after he became a secular artist.
The ”˜Maserati` crooner said he had to undertake a therapy session last year to clear his head.
Olakira made the revelation while featuring on TVC`s programme, Wake Up Nigeria, recently.
Asked why he “disappeared” for almost three years after releasing his hit song ”˜Maserati`, ” Olakira said, “I had my own issues as well. I got depressed at some point. I was unable to focus at some point.
“I was a gospel artist some years back. And I had some experience with ladies. I was in a choir and I had stuff with about four choristers and I was sacked from the church.
“And, when I came into the secular world, the whole thing was just crowded. It was a lot. I actually travelled for a bit to calm down. I took a therapy. I need to get out of that space because it is very distracting.
“I was raised by a single mother. So, I feel more comfortable around ladies than guys.”
