AFROPOP singer, Oxlade has revealed that he dropped out of Lagos State University (LASU) in his final year due to threats from gangs.
The "Kulosa" crooner shared his experience in a recent interview.
"I dropped out of the University in my final year because it was a crazy time," Oxlade explained. "There were some gangs after me because I'm a fine boy. Being a fine boy makes you a target. It's either you join them or they [harm] you. So I had to leave that environment," he added.
Oxlade described the situation as dire, forcing him to flee. "I went to Lagos State University (LASU)... Now, they're more focused on academics. I think they've realized how fragile life is and how important it is to pursue your dreams, so they've cracked down on that kind of behaviour."
After leaving school, Oxlade said the struggle continued. "After I left school, I ran away from home because I couldn't tell my family why I dropped out," he revealed, highlighting the emotional toll of his decision.
