He wrote in now deleted tweets;
Nigeria really doesn’t know me. I don’t care to be the biggest Nigerian artist. I’m just happy I can do what I love and take care of my people from it.

I came into the music industry straight from Chelmsford HMP. I had no idea I would even live this long.
So when people talk about me now, it’s all just funny. Of course, I would perform with my injured leg, or even no legs or arms.
If you knew just half of the shit I used to do for money, risking my freedom daily, you would be way happier for me.
