Former Ghanaian hiplife artiste turned gospel minister, Yaw Siki, is no stranger to transformation, but few expected the depth of his recent confession.
In a raw and honest interview with media personality DrPounds on Pounds TV, Yaw Siki peeled back the layers of his past, revealing a chaotic lifestyle defined by sex addiction, substance abuse, and spiritual emptiness before finding purpose through faith.
“I used to chop ashawo and I was addicted to porno,” he admitted bluntly, shocking many with the candour of his words. According to him, his obsession with adult content quickly spiraled into chronic masturbation — a habit he linked directly to his failed attempts at getting women to sleep with him.
“At a point, I wanted to sleep with girls but I wasn’t getting them like that, and that’s what led me to become a chronic masturbator,” he explained.
But that wasn’t all. Yaw Siki described himself as a full-blown hedonist in Tema’s music scene — immersed in alcohol and marijuana.
“Yoo, I was a heavy drinker. Like I knew how to drink waa. When it came to alcohol, I knew how to drink paa. I also knew how to smoke waa. If you were looking for one of the artistes in Tema who knew how to smoke, I was one of them,” he confessed without hesitation.
He made it clear that he’s not sharing his past out of shame or guilt but as a testimony of change.
“I’m not ashamed to say it now because they are no more. They won’t be embarrassed by it,” he said, affirming his detachment from his old life.
