Popular Nigerian Rapper Olamide speaking on marriage, he said God will decide when he’ll get married.
He revealed that he treats his female fans like his girlfriend and his girlfriend is aware of that but he keeps it on the low key.
He added that he wasn’t given a private part by God so he’d go around sleeping with everything in skirts.
On his academics “I dropped out of school for music but I intend going back.
I will be doing a professional course in South Africa to study Music Business and I’m certain about it.
Hopefully in 2015.”
He also revealed that he rarely has time to sleep as he is chasing his dream.
