Why I stopped trying to quit smoking – Omah Lay

Nigerian Afrobeats artist Omah Lay has decided to stop striving to quit smoking, as revealed in a recent podcast interview with DJ Dan. The 'Soso' hitmaker confessed that he has attempted to break the habit numerous times, but has encountered difficulties maintaining his efforts. In his perspective, Omah Lay now embraces his status as a smoker and acknowledges that death is inevitable, regardless of his smoking habits.

He emphasized that smoking provides him with a form of "artificial happiness" and a feeling of rebellion, as cannabis remains illegal in Nigeria. Omah Lay expressed his love for smoking and revealed that he has found it challenging to stop despite multiple attempts. He concluded by stating that life is short, and death is imminent; thus, there is no point in forcing himself to quit smoking.

Instead, he simply wants to find peace and enjoy his cannabis while acknowledging that this is his life to live and take pleasure in.
