Why I Denies My Twins- 9ice Explains

Shortly after his marriage to ex-wife Toni Payne packed up in
2010, Gongo Aso crooner 9ice welcomed a set of twin
daughters with another lady Vicki Godis.

When the news first became public, 9ice fiercely denied the
story, saying the press had made it up.

Not until he proudly shared the pictures of his adorable twins
on Instagram some weeks back.
And in this new interview with Punch, 9ice finally explains
why he lied.

Why did you deny you had twins when they were born?

I did say I didn't have twins then because I believe it was
personal. If I have N1m, I think it is only
my account's officer that should know how much I have. In
fact, he wouldn't even have the right to check my account
unless I ask him to do that. He couldn't just cull up my
account details and start checking how much I have. This is
not a car we are talking about, these are human beings.

But when they grow up, do you think they will forgive you
when they read that you once denied them?

I will tell them the reason I did that. It was the same way my
father gave me his own reasons. I didn't know him until I was
22. I got to know my mother when I was 18. They gave me
their reasons for doing what they did. I asked my father where
he was all the time I was growing up and he told me where
and how and when he was a part of my life. If my kids grow
up to ask me why I did what I did, I would certainly explain
to them. I didn't say I didn't have kids just because I wanted
to lie, No. I had my reasons. I had my life to live.

You are in showbiz, so you shouldn't expect to have a
private life…

But there are still some elements that are personal. I didn't
fight anybody when the stories came out. I just didn't say
anything because I wasn't ready to talk about it. I wasn't
ready to share the story. When I got ready, I even shared the
pictures of the twins. Who knows, I could have even used
their pictures to make money and sell to a publication that
wanted them. But I just released the pictures.

Do we see you getting married to their mother soon?

I will get married soon. It is very possible.

But is she the one you are with at the moment?

I am not saying anything on that. No comment.

Let's go back to what you said earlier on about not
knowing your parents until you were a young man, how did it
happen?

It is going to be in my autobiography. I am going to make
money out of the story. I am not divulging it. Nobody knows
about it yet.
