Nigerian rapper Lil Kesh has revealed that he has stayed away from sexual activity for seven years, explaining that he is trying to maintain his focus and avoid distractions.
The singer, whose real name is Keshinro Ololade, made the revelation in a video shared on his Instagram page, where he delivered a humorous message directed at women whose physical appearances he finds tempting.
In the video, Lil Kesh specifically called out women who regularly work out at the gym, jokingly asking them to tone down their appearance and movements around him.
“Hello, if you know you are a gym girly and your back is looking like this, please, I’m gonna need you to tone it down. I have been celibate for 7 years; I am trying to focus; don’t konjibait me,” he said.
The rapper’s comments appeared to be a lighthearted way of explaining the challenges he faces while trying to maintain his decision to abstain from sex.
His use of the phrase “don’t konjibait me” added a playful touch to the message, which quickly drew attention to his personal disclosure.
Although Lil Kesh did not explain what prompted his decision to remain celibate or whether he intends to continue abstaining, he made it clear that staying focused is currently important to him.
