Content producer Peter Kabi aka Kabi Wajesus has opened up about how he found himself smoking weed at a young age while still in primary school.
The former musician and entertainer who has now turned into a believer revealed that he started using illegal drugs in the fifth grade after being introduced to them by a group of his friends who intended to introduce him to a criminal gang.
He said he found himself using bhang in an effort to join a gang which also pushed him to be circumcised before finishing primary school.
"They told me initiation required circumcision, a plot that would have seen me convinced my parents to let me go under the knife in class 6. Thank you Jesus, that plan never materialized!” Kabi said in a post on Tuesday morning.
He added, "We often hear people using marijuana, but it is a way that can lead one's child to crime, serious addiction, or a useful life like cabbage! So let's not make drugs look fun because you're an adult and probably in control.
What about that child who is watching and all they want is a copy without self-control? How will their young minds be saved from this?"
Kabi revealed that the doctor advised him to stop smoking marijuana and cigarettes after he was diagnosed with TB, which he managed to do for a short time before falling back into addiction.
The entertainer added that he successfully battled cannabis addiction after recovering almost ten years ago.
"Then, on September 15, 2013, I found salvation and became born again. Fearing a relapse, I kept some joints just in case. But to my surprise, the moment I accepted Jesus as my savior, the urge vanished! 😂" he said.
He finished by saying, "But I also did something else - I had heartfelt conversations with my past demons, holding them and declaring, 'I will smoke or drink you no more, I am now Born again!' I believe in the power of testifying your faith, not just to others, but to your struggles too."
Kabi used the Bible verse of Revelation 12:11 to tell how he was able to fight the addiction, "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony."
