Oladips expresses frustration over doubts about his near-death experience
Nigerian rapper Oladips voiced his disappointment regarding the ongoing skepticism surrounding his claim of having passed away and subsequently being resurrected.
In a recent interview with Hip TV on Wednesday, April 10, 2024, Oladips addressed the lingering “death hoax” surrounding his near-death encounter, emphatically asserting the authenticity of his experience.
In 2023, reports circulated suggesting Oladips had passed away, only for subsequent reports to confirm his survival. This series of events led to widespread speculation that he had orchestrated his death as a publicity stunt.
During the interview, Oladips recounted the harrowing experience and expressed frustration at the persistent disbelief from the public.
“I came back to life to see all the chaos and disbelief. But what can I do? What has happened has happened. How many people can I sit with and explain to?” Oladips said. “Because, obviously, a lot of people still think my death is a prank. Every time I tried to explain that it was a near-death experience and not a prank, people always show disbelief. But those who are close to me know that I died and resurrected.”
His candid remarks shed light on the complexities of dealing with public perception and the challenges of overcoming skepticism regarding deeply personal experiences.
