Rapper Chinko Ekun, the artiste with the one of the biggest hit in Nigeria 'Able God' Ft. Zlatan and Lil Kesh back in 2018 came to air through a video shared by a pastor
on how his life have been ever since he dropped the banger. He narrated after been kicked out of his record label, YBNL which is owned by Olamide is life has been a total
turnoff. He disclosed that the thought of suicide came bagging in. But he pulled himself and he has been successful ever since.
His words were:
"I had one of the biggest records in Nigeria then titled 'Able God'. I was going for shows and everything was just sweet, you know."
"Before you wake up, they already booked you, you go for political shows, and they're paying you for what you loved to do."
"Then there was a lot of money. But skip to 2020, I lost my record deal. I had issue with my record label boss. He was so mad that he asked me leave the house."
"So, I lost my deal and the house and became homeless practically."
"I'm the gentle type so I don't come on the internet to talk at all but it was just inside of me. Due to the trauma, I relocated to the mainland where I was squatting with some of my friends."
"Then I was depressed because every now and then, I was usually on flights but seeing myself almost sleeping on the floor."
"At the time, I was also in a relationship then. The breakfast was so hot that I landed in the hospital. So, everything that mattered to me was crumbling."
"I was squatting with Aloma, Davido's aide, at an estate which is around Elegushi Beach. One day I went to Elegushi Beach and thought to myself 'Should I jump into the water?'"
"I started threatening God that if I bow to another god, na him cause am o", He said.
"In like three months, I was able to record some new songs. I got two endorsement deals from some companies. Then I started getting some shows till I was able to get my new apartment and some properties"

I'm happy it all ended in praise for him.
It's an encouragement to everyone, including me.
That Ray of hope truly came at the 11th hour.
I also realized that God didn't jump down to help you out, he used people.
Thankfully, you were surrounded by the right people who helped you bounce back.
Imagine what would have happened if you didn't have a place to lay your head when you lost your home?
**I love being me.**

Hmmmmm this is so sad. What I'm learning day by day is to be very careful with the way I judge and crucify people for their actions.
Most times when people commit suicide or have suicidal thoughts, we tend to judge them. Saying they're weak, even if it's true that they're weak. The reality is that the world is a battleground and people react to it differently.
I'm glad He pulled through and didn't commit suicide. I just want to use this moment and this podium to pray for people going through a lot. We all going through a lot sha, but I pray for people who are not handling it well.
I pray they find the light, I pray God opens their eyes to see things clearly. I pray God shows them mercy and help come for them. AMEN!
