Majek Fashek Denies Roaming the Streets, Says It’s All Rumours
In an interview with Encomium Magazine, Majek Fashek, whose ex-wife recently revealed details about his poor health due to drug and alcohol addiction (read here) says he is not broke and reports flying around about him are unfounded.
Read excerpts:
On the speculations of him begging: The Nigerian press, the print in particular, not electronic, have been blackmailing me. They are trying to ruin me writing all sorts of things against me. I did nothing. I was in America, I had to come back to prove them wrong. I’m a Rastafarian man, a prisoner of conscience. I’m the begotten of Jesus Christ. He’s my father.
On roaming the streets: It’s not true. The thing is I’m a Rasta man and a prisoner of conscience. These are my two movements. And a prisoner of conscience and Rastaman does not avoid the poor. Poverty is a sin, I cannot discriminate against the streets, even though I’m a millionaire.
I have $100,000 in one of the biggest banks in America. I’m not a careless man. I’m a father with four boys. What happened was the hotel I was staying didn’t have light and they didn’t put on the generator. I was bored. So, I went into the streets to buy myself a drink. I like Guinness, sometimes Apeteshi or malt. I use the apeteshi to consult with the holy spirit. Why would I, as a prisoner of conscience, alienate myself from the poor man and woman? Then I am not a prisoner of conscience. How can I beg?
On who leaked the story: I didn’t even know that guy that wrote this thing came to investigate me. Is he CIA? I even bought bread for him that day.
On the true state of things: The true state of things is that they are all rumours, God still kept me. It’s all blackmail. It’s only God that has kept me alive that I must obey.
On having his own house: Yes, I have a house in Ogba, Lagos. It’s a bungalow. There was a beef, which we have settled.
On stopping his family from visiting him few years ago: I told them not to, especially because my first son, Randy has a good job with the American government with a wife and children. And I didn’t want him to risk all that.
He roams the street he can’t lie about that one. I have seen him like 3 to 4times in Egbeda around Zukada hotel.

This sound funny. Ebi like say the drug and alco don vanish as at the moment he was interviewed. May God help you. Amen
He doesn’t really need to own up to prove any point. All he needs now is help.
he needs help
Even his answers shows clearly that he has a problem. He needs to be helped.
Well he might be right, I wouldn’t blame the rumour monger too cause there is a thin line between being a drug addict and insanity. I like the aspect of ‘prisoner of conscience’.
The reward of hard drugs… What a pity!!

From his response sef,it can easily b detected that he nids help.
I pray he gets it soon.
