"Being a lawyer has always been my dream" 9ice goes back to school-
After having one of the most successful albums of all time, 9nice has
decided to go back and pursue his career as a lawyer.In this interview
with Nigerian Tribune..he says its always been his dream.
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.
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.
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.
