"A dad that was spewing only God knows what!! Even wanna bury the young lad at midnight.
"No fatherhood figure and no mentorship.
"He learnt life on the streets.
"Friends that he called friends but are frenemies.
"A wife he accused for the public to hold her responsible if he dies
"A record label CEO he also accused for the public to hold them responsible.
"The nurse plus injection.
"The white water he drank last, what’s the composition of it?
"The worst that can happen to any human is to be accused and labelled as a killer without justification.
"The many oppressive scenarios landed him into depression. Depression that has been there for a long time that was ignored."
