Evangelist Abraham Philip Akpor Kojo( formerly known as Lord Kenya in the music industry) has admonished people to be careful of the negative influences their friends can exert on them and do away with such friends when necessary.
The former Hiplife artist revealed that he began drinking alcohol and eventually smoking marijuana through the influence of friends he trusted had his welfare at heart.
“At first I was taught how to drink with the explanation that even if one gets drunk, they will be quickly become sober again.
Then I went to stay with a friend who had marijuana at home and encouraged me to smoke as much as I could,” he said in a Sunday sermon yesterday.
Evangelist Lord Kenya, the Founder of the Face of Grace Covenant Temple, stressed that some friends are hellbent on destroying them, and they must be wary of such friends.
“Some friends come into your life to cause your downfall, to disgrace you. They’ll introduce you to vices and when you fail, they laugh at you,” he added.
Lord Kenya regularly uses his struggle with drug abuse in the past to warn people against indulging in substance abuse.
