I Had The Worst Kind Of Friends Who Pushed Me To Release Album – Nigerian Actress, Tonto Dikeh

Nollywood actress and politician, Tonto Dikeh, has revealed that the negative influence of her closest friends was the main reason her music career failed.

Tonto made this known on Friday while singing ‘God is Good’ by Don Moen on her Instagram page.

The 40-year-old film star reflected on her brief journey in the music industry, which began in 2013 with the release of songs like ‘Hi’, ‘Crazically Fit’, and ‘Jeje’, including collaborations with popular artistes such as Solid Star and Terry G.

Tonto stated that her failure in music serves as a reminder of a time when negative influences surrounded her, urging her fans to choose their friends wisely.

She lamented that her singing ability did not match the ambition her friends instilled in her, humorously claiming that with the right talent, she would have surpassed the fame of stars like Tiwa Savage, Cece Winans, or Whitney Houston.

She said, “If I could sing ehn, una for don Dey sick of me….

“Like you don’t even understand, Likkeeeeeeeeeeee who is Tiwa? Who is Whitney, who is cece winas? Taaaaahhhhhhh.

“Watching this video reminds me of the time I had the worst kind of friends who pushed me to release album.

“Look sneeze/sniper and co your bedroom is been reserved in hell. Moral of this lesson choose your friends wisely more importantly be wise.”
