Legendary Rapper Lil Wayne Announces Retirement From Music: ‘I am Mentally Defeated’

Lil Wayne bows out. Today, the Young Money rapper made an unprecedented announcement about his career: he says he is done with music.

“I am now defenseless and mentally defeated and I leave gracefully and thankful,” he said, adding, “I luh my fanz but I’m dun.”

This comes just weeks after the Grammy Award winning rapper suffered multiple seizures. In June, Wayne was hospitalised after suffering double seizures during a flight from Milwaukee to California. And a month later, in July, he was hit by another seizure, this time in Vegas, and had to be hospitalised again. But he would emerge later to say it was a ‘false alarm‘.

His health issues were linked to the dangerous drink sizzurp (a purple concoction made from codeine and other drinks) which he is addicted to. Over the years, he had health emergencies, sometimes while on stages.

Now, he says he is ‘mentally defeated’ and ‘defenseless’, an expression that has fans worried if the sudden retirement is linked to his battled with sizzurp.

However, he is being celebrated on social media. Check out some of the reactions from fans:

TSA: Sokoto Uncovers N1.5Bn in 100 Idle Accounts

Two weeks after the formal introduction of the Treasury Single Accounting (TSA) system in Sokoto, the state government said it has uncovered N1.5 billion lying idle in 100 redundant accounts belonging to it in various commercial banks in the country. The state commissioner of finance, Alhaji Umar Saidu, who stated this in Sokoto on Sunday while giving an update on the system’s implementation, said government is determined to trace and close down all dormant and inactive accounts operated by it. He said since the introduction of the TSA, there has been a massive improvement in the reconciliation of public finance figures between the government and commercial banks. This, according to him, has reduced risk of errors in reconciliation processes and has enhanced timeliness and quality of the fiscal figures from such accounts. The commissioner said the introduction of the TSA has now enabled government to regularly monitor public cash balances while at the same time ensu...

Flats and strappy sandals, especially in light or nude colors, that show a lot of skin will help elongate your legs instead of just cutting them off at the ankles.
