ACCUSATIONS OF RAPE COST ME JOBS IN 2020 – OLUWADOLARZ
Ogunleye Babatunde Olamide, better known by his stage name Oluwadolarz, is a singer and content producer who has described how being accused of rape caused him to lose his job and experience despair.
In an interview with the “WithChude” podcast, he talked about his turbulent upbringing, the 2020 rape accusations, and his path to fame.
The 30-year-old comic also talked about the rape accusations from 2020, which had a big effect on his life and profession.
“I lost a lot of jobs due to the rape allegation. I was depressed because that was the same period I had my child. I paid a lot of debts because they wanted me to repay their money. They did not want to associate themselves with my brand,” he recounted.
Oluwadolarz also revealed that his father’s death at two forced him to take on immense responsibilities.
He said he became the breadwinner at 11, worrying about his family’s basic needs
“I was once a truck loader at Dangote Cement at Ebute Metta. I was loading pasta.
“I lost my dad at a very early age like when I was 2 years old. But I had a stepdad who supported us. He died in 2015.
“I did not enjoy my childhood. I became a man at the age of 11. At that age, I was contemplating what the family would eat. I started music in 2008. It did not move at all,” he stated.
