Majek Fashek Finally Confirms Addiction To Drugs & Alcohol. Warns People Not To Use Drugs.
AUGUST 11, 2015 in Celebrity



We had already told you that struggling reggae star Majek Fashek is currently undergoing drug & alcohol rehab in Abuja. Yesterday (Aug 10) the embattled entertainer held a press conference in the capital city, during the press briefing he was flanked by his treatment specialists and Charly Boy.

At the press conference Fashek who is now a shadow of the man who made hits like Send Down The Rain confirmed he is in rehab for drug & alcohol addiction. I don’t know about Nigerian but I know in Western climes the first step in treating any type of addiction is to acknowledge and admit said addiction, which the music star did yesterday.

Perhaps now a changed man Fashek, gave kids a strong warning about the dangers of drugs and alcohol abuse.

Read what he said after the jump


People should stop the use of alcohol and drugs because being drunk will end up destroying your career and your plans for the future. Coming to the rehab is not a bad idea because I realised that I am addicted to alcohol and it was beginning to affect my output and what I enjoy doing and decided to seek for help. I am not the first singer or person that will go to the rehab; most renowned celebrities we know today go to rehabilitation centres to cool their memory.

Speaking on why he finally admitted his addiction to drugs he said,

I publicly admitted to addiction to alcohol because so many things are being said about me on the social media and nobody forced me to the rehab. Propaganda of scandal was being monotonous to my generation. I want to run from the stress of Babylon of Africa and I need to be credited for the works I have done.

He also cleared the air about the long standing rumour that he was deported from the United States where his kids still live, saying he was never deported. He also added that he is fighting to protect the legacy of his kids.

The consultant and psychiatrist treating Majek Fashek, Dr Vincent Udenze at the press conference said his rehabilitation would take a while and that it would be a journey.

Rehabilitation is a long term journey, even if he leaves the centre and goes home, he is still on that journey and that is how we conceptualise rehabilitation.

We are all praying & rooting for you Majek Fashek!
