Eko hot blog reports that In a heartfelt revelation, Nigerian artist Pepenazi, now known as Pastor Opeyemi Gbenga Kayode, opens up about his miraculous transformation from a life plagued by alcohol, illicit substances, and smoking.
Having spent years entrenched in the secular music scene, Pepenazi candidly shares his battle with addiction, revealing that he was introduced to alcohol and drugs during his time in the industry.
Contrary to popular belief, he emphasizes that these substances don’t enhance creativity but instead lead down a destructive path.
In a poignant video message posted on his Instagram page, Pepenazi reflects on his past, stating, “God delivered me from alcohol, illicit drugs, and smoking.”
He sheds light on the deceitful nature of addiction, admitting that he once succumbed to the false notion that substance abuse was the key to feeling better and enhancing experiences.
