Nigerian musician Asake has recently discussed the obstacles individuals with tattoos face when seeking employment in Nigeria.
The star said it is not easy for anyone with a tattoo to get a job in Nigeria.
In a recent feature in GQ magazine, he shared his personal experience of being judged based on his neck tattoo, which hindered his ability to secure a job or engage in business activities.
The artiste said;
“In Nigeria, if you have a tattoo on your neck, you can’t work anywhere. I can’t work for any company. I can’t sell anything.”
Asake described his surprising ascent to prominence, emphasizing that, contrary to common assumption, he was not an “overnight success” in the Nigerian music scene.
The “Yoga” singer stated that he had been striving for fame for years and had just recently arrived at his destination.
In other news, Popular Nigerian Afrobeats artist Ahmed Ololade, often known as Asake, has shared his reasons for splitting from his girlfriend.The ‘Remember’ singer claims that after he was paid well for his songs, he was so happy to tell her about it that he informed her precisely how much he made and decided to give her N2 million.
Asake expressed shock at his girlfriend’s rejection of the N2 million, pointing out that she thought it was little in comparison to his large paycheck earned from his huge job.
The singer voiced his worries, saying that the unexpected behavior disturbed him, especially in light of the woman’s lowly upbringing.
He made it clear that he hadn’t expected her to have that kind of attitude.
Asake went on to say that he talked to Olamide about the matter, and Olamide suggested that he give the money to his mother and end his relationship with the girl.
He said that after giving his mother the N2 million, she is now self-sufficient and no longer needs him for financial support.
Asake stated:
“When I made my first big paycheck from music, I was so happy that I shared the news with my girlfriend. I gave her full details of how much I made and the next day, I gave her 2 million naira as a gift.
To my surprise, she turned it down saying 2 Million was too small compared to how much I had made. I was a bit worried coz this girl is from a humble background, and I never imagined her to be like that.
I explained the situation to Olamide and he advised me to leave the girl, he also instructed me to send the 2 Million Naira to my mom.
I’m glad I did coz my mom was able to make good use of the money and open a big provision store. My mom doesn’t call me for financial issues anymore coz she’s doing just fine…“
