Majek Fashek's problem has
nothing to do with drug abuse, rather a spiritual problem.
One of Nigeria's living reggae icons, Rassam Wiliki
popularly called Orits Wiliki, has revealed that Majek Fashek's problem has
nothing to with alcohol or drug abuse as is widely believed.
The reggae singer, who is part of efforts to rehabilitate
the Nigerian reggae legend, in an interview with The SUN, attributed the
"send down the rain" singer's problems to spiritual forces.
Speaking on why he decided to get involved in the campaign
to save Majek, the self-acclaimed Koleman revolutionaire said: "It is sad
that Majek Fashek found himself in that kind of situation. That is why we are
not throwing him away. I have promised myself that I will not discuss most of
the things we are doing on the pages of newspapers. We have done a lot before
now but we just need to take it to the next level.
If you have been monitoring it on facebook, there is a page
created christened 'Majek Fashek family'. It was put together by Monica, the
lady in the United States who was one of his backup singers. Every issue about
saving Majek Fashek is discussed on that platform. A website has also been
opened where donation can be made towards helping him. What we intend to do is
to raise enough money and put him in rehab".
When asked to comment on speculations that Majek Fashek’s
problem has to do with his drug abuse over the years, Orits Wiliki said
"His problem is beyond drugs; it is spiritual. Sometimes, if you have a
one-on-one conversation with him, he would discuss with you as if nothing was
wrong with him".
The "conqueror" singer, however, proffered what he
considered to be the solution to Majek's drug addiction. "I also think
part of the problems is that he is not engaged. You know, an idle mind is the
devil's workshop. If we put him in rehab and he finds something doing after he
is okay, Majek will be well 100 percent, I can assure you. Even in his present
condition, he still maintains the same aura on stage that he had when he was
the rave. I believe that if he is busy going on music tours, there will be no
problem", he opined.
