Popular Nigerian Gospel singer, Victor Thompson has made a shocking revelation about his early life.
Thompson revealed that after losing both of his parents at 12, he had to sell weed and alcohol to survive.
He said in discussion with Chude Jideonwo that he hawked sachet water during the day and sold alcohol, weed and cigarettes to sex workers at night.
“At a time, I was selling alcohol, weed, cigarettes, and hawking pure water. In the morning and afternoon time, I did vulcanizing, shoe-making and hawked pure water but at night go back to my shop which was close to a brothel to sell alcohol, weed, and cigarettes. Most of my customers were the prostitutes.
“I lost my parents when I was between 12 and 14. My dad passed first, I think I was 10 or thereabout. When my dad died, my aunties threw us out of our dad’s house. We didn’t have a place to sleep. God so good, a carpenter was so kind and gave us an empty land to sleep. It’s a bush so at night, I would sneak my mum in, so that was how we lived for years. But she couldn’t cope then she passed.” He said.
Victor Thompson is a Nigerian Gospel singer and songwriter, best known for the song “This Year (Blessings)” released in January 2023. The remix featured American rapper, Gunna.
