Veteran Nigerian singer, songwriter, Akande Abolore popularly known as 9ice has clarified misconceptions surrounding his frequent use of Yoruba proverbs in his songs.

Clarifying some rumours about his knowledge of proverbs being because he is an herbalist, 9ice denied the claim.

In an interview with content creator Bae U, the ‘Gongo Aso’ hitmaker said his late stepmother heavily influenced his use of Yoruba proverbs in his music.

He said:

“I am not an herbalist. I am a Yoruba man from Oyo state, and I learnt all the proverbs from my late stepmum. While trying to create songs, I decided to use all those.”
