The gospel music star said he used to sell weed and cigarettes to people, including sex workers, to survive.
Gospel singer Victor Thompson has revealed that sex workers used to be his customers.
He made this revelation in an interview with Chude Jideonwo, during which he spoke about his struggles to survive at a time.
Thompson said that in the past, he engaged in various activities, including selling weed and cigarettes, as well as hawking sachet water to make ends meet.
According to him, considering that he had a shop close to where sex workers used, they patronised him.
“I was selling alcohol, weed, cigarettes, and hawking pure water to survive. In the morning, I did the vulcarnising, and shoemaking.
“I had a shop close to sex workers, they were my customers,” the music star told Chude.
The interview, however, sparked a flurry of reactions across social media, with users applauding his bravery in opening up.
Many people praised him for his willingness to share his story, citing it as a source of inspiration and empowerment. It ignited a wave of support and encouragement from diverse online communities.
