9ice goes back to school

9ice the ‘gongo aso’ hit maker was
studying Law at the Lagos State University
before lack of funds took charge, then he
took to music where he has prospered. He
revealed in an interview with the Nigerian
Tribune that he has returned back to
school to chase his dream of becoming a
lawyer.
The interview;
Would you trade your being famous for
something else if you look at some of the
bad side of fame that you have experienced
over time?
Yes, I will love to trade fame with some
silent life that does not arrogate too much
attention to one, but it has got nothing to
do with any bad experience. No matter
what you do or who you are, there’s always
a difficult time and life challenges that you
can’t run away from. But I will really love to
trade because I wish to be a lawyer.That
has always been my dream.
Do you think life would have been different
for you should you have been a lawyer?
Honestly, life as a normal person is fine
and more wonderful, free, fair and
peaceful. But as a public figure, you enjoy
more and you pay more in terms of the
price you pay for being famous. If I come
to this world again, I would prefer normal
life.
You were said to have pulled out of your
Law programme at the Lagos State
University to face music. That decision paid
off, but you seem not to be happy about it
now?
I didn’t pull out because of music; I left
school because I was unable to pay my
school fees. While I was on the street, I
gave hundred percent of my life to music
and it paid off eventually.
When I was in school, I was just doing
music for fun until I left school. At that
point, I decided that I was going to face
music passionately and from that point,
things changed.
Why did you choose Law that time?
I chose law because of my background to
fight for the less privilege, protect the
interest of the masses and uphold the right
of the individuals.
Your decision to leave school wouldn’t have
gone down well with your parents, how did
they react to it and what was constantly
coming to your mind back then?
It was not an easy decision to make. There
were days that I had to live in the studio.
Talking about my parents’ reaction, I had to
lie for a while, pretended as if all was well.
Before my parents knew I wasn’t in school,
it was too late to complain because I was
already on TVs, making money and rocking
shows all around.
Would you consider going back to school
someday?
I’m in school already, studying public
safety and Common Law at Capella
university. It is an online programme. I
can’t think of any other course except law.
