Nigerian Artists Gained Boldness to Use Cannabis Publicly Thanks to Me – Terry G Claims

Gabriel Oche Amanyi, better known as Terry G, has boldly proclaimed his impact on Nigeria’s music landscape.

The self-styled “Akpako Master” claims he empowered artists to openly smoke cannabis in music videos without fear.

Terry G asserted that prior to his emergence, Nigerian musicians lacked the courage to publicly showcase cannabis use on camera.

The controversial statement was made via his social media platform on Sunday.

In a now-viral post, he declared: “No offense, just facts – if not for my boldness, none of today’s stars would dare light up on screen.”

The claim sparked debate, with critics reminding him that music legends like Fela Kuti were openly smoking in videos decades before Terry G’s career began.
