He prostrated for his father before they hugged on stage. The singer’s dad expressed excitement about attending the event and said the attendees were wonderful people.
He also went down memory lane to talk about Eyo masquerades and his son’s connection with them 15 years ago. The Ku Lo Sa singer agreed with his father as he spoke. The album – Oxlade from Africa – is the singers debut album.
Oxlade shares why he left LASU
Earlier, Oxlade had disclosed that he dropped out in final year at Lagos State University (LASU) because he was too handsome. Hence, this made him a target for gangs in the school. It was either he joined them or they dealt with him.
He also said that the school is now calm because the students currently place more focus on academics. Besides, they have come to realise how fragile life can be and aiming for one’s dreams is more important.
He added that he could not go home after he dropped out and he kept making excuses to his family. When they eventually got to know, they were calm about it.
