I Want To Be The Governor Of Oyo State Soon- 9Ice Reveals

When many had thought that all was lost for popular singer, 9ice who recently contested for the Federal House of Representatives, Ogbomosho North/Ogbomosho South/Orire Federal Constituency on the platform of his party, APC but lost out at the primaries, he surprised them all by bagging a political appointment.

Even as he is presently the Special Adviser to the Oyo State governor on Youths, the lanky singer is not ready to give up his political ambition, which is to become the governor of Oyo state in near future.

"My ultimate ambition in politics is to become the governor of Oyo State. However, I'll still run for the Federal House of Representatives to serve my constituency in the next election. I believe I can serve in that position very well, and I also know that I stand the chance to become the governor of Oyo State.

As the Special Adviser to the Oyo State governor on Youths, my plans are to spring up so many ideas that I already have at the back of my mind. Initiatives like the Governor's Cup in terms of Sports, and also by organizing debates. The era of debates has died, and I think we need to encourage the brilliant students who have the capacity for that in Oyo State. I intend to present such students to the governor so they can be supported academically, and if the powers that be support the idea, then I think we're good to go." He said.

9ice also addressed the issue of his fans miss-interpreting the meaning of your songs.

"I've learnt that songs are spiritual, and we as artistes, should watch the kind of songs we sing. Like the song “Once bitten, twice shy;” it was a quality song, but it was released at the wrong time when other things were happening. People just added one and two together, and concluded that the song was talking about my own separation. I still repeat that it's a good song, and it's only unfortunate that people read wrong meanings to it."
On his present relationship with his estranged wife, Toni Payne, 9ice insisted that the only connection they have is their son.

"We don't have any relationship outside my son, Zion. She's doing fine, and I'm doing fine as well. We both take care of our son, he told Vanguard.
