“Where is everyone when I do good?” – Jericho.
Rapper turned gospel singer Jericho was recently nabbed for robbery alongside friend. The duo allegedly robbed the victim of his wallet which contained N$300 and personal documents as well as two cellphones.
Speaking out for the first time to Fresh FM’s UrbanFix show, the musician expressed his disappointment in how he has been painted by the media and the public.
” Everybody has been quiet on me for some time but suddenly everyone has something to say. I am a bit disappointed at the same time I’m ok and I’m praying still. I am God’s child, ” he told the Fresh FM team, Big Homie and Dubz.
The singer who was bailed out by his pastor says the story has been blown out of proportion however he has his lawyers working to ensure justice prevails.
” I’m not that type of dude. I don’t rob people. I got my lawyers and they will prove I’m innocent in this. People will know the truth,” he says.
Jericho further says he feels unappreciated as people only focus on the wrongs he has done and never the positive contributions through his music or charity work.
The artist says he is working on himself including leaving Windhoek and trying to get a job to make ends meet however news like this will set him back.
” I can’t live in Windhoek anymore. I just had to leave. I am a grown man, I have a lot of responsibilities on my back. I have been job hunting so I can get my life in order.
The singer concluded the interview on the Urban Fix saying this too shall pass.
” They crucified God for doing the right thing. Everyone who has been with me keep your head up. We will get through this. I know we will win this, ” he said.
Jericho’s hearing will be on 4 March in Karibib.
