Nigerian artist Alexander Adegbola Akande, widely recognized as 9ice, has revealed his struggle with a "spiritual attack" that nearly claimed his life.
In a recent episode of The Nancy Isime Show, the ‘Gongo Aso’ singer shared that he experienced vomiting blood for six months following the attack in 2010.
9ice identified himself as neither a Christian nor a Muslim, but rather a heathen, expressing regret for not embracing traditionalism sooner.
Isime inquired: “Would you say you’ve faced spiritual battles while pursuing your music career?”
9ice responded: “Several times.”
Isime then asked: “What is the most significant spiritual battle you encountered that made you feel you might not survive?”
9ice replied: “When I was vomiting blood for approximately six months in my own home. I had to vacate my residence. This occurred in 2009/2010. It was not a medical issue.”
Isime further questioned: “How do you safeguard yourself?”
9ice answered: “I’m not a Christian or a Muslim; I’m a Babalawo. I’m an African. I’m a traditionalist. The first time I encountered ifa was during my blood vomiting episode. Someone directed me to ifa. I only wish I had discovered ifa earlier. Fela used to visit Ogun and faced ridicule, but now I comprehend.”
He encouraged Africans to adopt traditional religions.
