My mother and I usually sleep in a shopping complex – Skales Revealed

Skales has revealed that his childhood was a very tough one adding that his father left him and his mother when he was very young.

In a chat with Saturday Beats, Skales said that things were so tough for him while growing up that he used to sleep in a shopping complex with his mother.

- “My father left us when I was really young; I do not even know how he looks like. My mother and I used to sleep in a shopping complex at a time. I am talking about during my primary and secondary school days in Kaduna. Then, the only hope for me was music.

At some point, I told my mother I wanted to work and support her. I was chased out of school because I did not pay school fees. I had to steal school uniform because mine was bad and I would tell my mother I saved money for it.

- “Also, my mother would go to my friends’ houses to do their laundry, which was embarrassing to me. I had to deny my mother. I also did not let my friends know where I lived because most of them were children of politicians. When I told my mother I was moving to Lagos, she asked me to finish my university education in Kaduna. But I convinced her I could cope. From Kaduna to Lagos, I got a free ride and the first place I stayed was Orile (Lagos).

- I lied to the person that gave me free ride that I would stay with him for a couple of days and it turned to months. He later started a label with some friends; they knew some people but it was not easy.”

Recall that Skales was recently involves in a baby mama mess , to clear the air off this rumour, the singer stated that it is pure lies and he is not ready to father a child until he is married.
