Former Blu*3 singer Jackie Chandiru has come out to say she is a survivor of the wave of drug abuse and she is mighty proud of herself. Chandiru made it clear that she will not do anything about the scars she has on the different body parts that she got as a result of this issue of drug abuse.
The singer noted that she will keep the scars till she breathes her last simply because they remind her that she is a winner who overcame the battle of struggling with the use of toxic substances. With those scars, she claimed she remembers all she went through just by looking at her scars hence they serve as marks of a heroin.
Jackie Chandiru went ahead to stress that whenever she stares at her scars she feels happy and motivated which reminds her that she won the drug abuse battle as she thanks God for the mercy bestowed upon her every single day.
"When I look at my scars, I will not do anything to take them away. I keep them because they remind me that I am a winner. I don’t want to lie to you that it was something that I just woke up and quit but it took me a very long time like six years.
And when I look at the scars they remind me that I won the battle. It wasn’t out of my own effort but through God who let me know that I was hurting very many people with my addiction." Jackie Chandiru said
She added that with everything she went through while battling drug abuse, she served her punishment for drug abuse well and to date she is still paying the price since sometimes people throw jabs at her doubting whether she can still perform without getting intoxicated.
"What I went through is enough and there is no action on this earth that has no consequence. So when you abuse God’s temple which is our body, you have to pay the price. So if sometimes I am insulted about drugs, I know that am paying the price of doing drugs." She said
Jackie went ahead to thank her family and friends for standing beside her during the time she was struggling with the addiction.
"I thank God for having helped me to win this drug abuse battle. My family and friends stood by me and saw me overcome the addiction because I wouldn’t perform without first taking an injection."
