Oxlade, in a recent stage performance, revealed why he dropped out of Lagos State University (LASU) as a final-year student.
He said leaving the school environment was the best decision for him, because he was a target to certain gangs.
He said, “I dropped out of the university in my final year because it was a crazy time. There were some gangs after me because I’m a fine boy. Being a fine boy makes you a target. It is either you join them or they o** you. So I had to leave that environment.
“I went to Lagos State University (LASU). Go and read about the school. Now, they’re more focused on academics. I think they’ve realized how fragile life is and how important it is to pursue your dreams, so they’ve cracked down on that kind of behaviour. Now everyone is chasing money, but at that time, it was a hot period.
“After I left school, I ran away from home because I couldn’t tell my family why I dropped out,”
