Nigerian singer, Alexander Adegbola Akande, popularly known as 9ice, has opened up about his battle with a “spiritual attack” that almost took his life.

Speaking in a recent episode of The Nancy Isime Show, the ‘Gongo Aso’ crooner disclosed that he vomited blood for six months after suffering the attack in 2010.

He stated that he got his healing after someone referred him to an ifa priest.

9ice said he is neither a Christian nor a Muslim, but a heathen. He stated that he regrets not becoming a traditionalist earlier on.

Isime asked: “Would you say you’ve experienced spiritual battles while doing music?”

9ice replied: “Several times.”

Isime asked: “What’s that one spiritual battle you went through that you thought you would not get out of?”

9ice replied: “When I was vomiting blood for about six months in my own house. I had to leave my house. It happened in 2009/2010. It wasn’t a medical condition.”

Isime asked: “So, how do you protect yourself?”

9ice replied: “I’m not a Christian or a Muslim, I’m a Babalawo. I’m an African. I’m a traditionalist. The first time I experienced ifa was when I was vomiting blood. Someone referred me to ifa. I just wished that I had known ifa at the beginning. Fela used to go to Ogun and people were mocking him, but now, I understand.”

He urged Africans to embrace traditional religions.
