How I abused alcohol, illicit substances – Pepenazi shares

  • Nigerian singer-turned-pastor, Opeyemi Gbenga Kayode, also known as Pepenazi, has shared how God has healed him from smoking, alcohol consumption, and illicit substance use.
  • He admitted to being exposed to alcohol and illicit substances during his time in the secular music industry.
  • The speaker refuted the common belief that alcohol and illicit substances enhance creativity.

Opeyemi Gbenga Kayode, also known as Pepenazi, a Nigerian singer-turned-pastor, has spoken out about how God delivered him from smoking, drinking, and using illegal drugs.

He said that he was introduced to alcohol and illicit substances while working in the secular music industry.

He explained that the prevalent belief that alcohol and illicit substances increase creativity is incorrect.

Speaking in a video message posted on his Instagram page, Pepenazi said:

“God delivered me from alcohol, illicit drugs and smoking. There’s a lie that the devil sells, for those who know, I had a career in the secular music industry for about a decade.

“And even before I became a professional artist, while I was still in the university, there’s this lie that the devil sells to you that before you can feel really better while you’re recording and even while you’re engaging with the opposite sex, the best way is to get high.

“And the devil sold this lie through me. That was how I started drinking alcohol and engaging in things that did not glorify the name of God.”
