I Have Never Smoked Or Indulged In Hard Drugs – OV

Multi-talented young and versatile Ghanaian musician, Barbara Naa Okailey Nyarko, well recognized by the stage name OV, has recently revealed that she has never smoked weed or used any hard drugs in her entire life.

According to her, she is not a drug addict as some Ghanaian perceive her to be, adding  that many people have wrongly judged her because of her looks when that is far from who she truly represents.

The former signee of the Burniton Music Group made this known while speaking on Kwaku Manu’s Aggressive Interview. According to her,  apart from wine, she does not take any alcoholic beverage.

“I have never smoked or indulged in hard drugs. The only thing that I love is wine and people close to me can testify. I have never smoked in my life,” she stated.

This is not the first time Ov has  addressed rumours of her being a drug addict. It will be recalled that the ‘Want ME’ hitmaker, told Giovani Caleb on 3FM that she struggled fiercely with depression, which eventually led to her mental breakdown and a two-week confinement.

She further indicated that things became worse for her when she was unknowingly given an overdose of medication, which left her paralysed for two weeks, forcing her to take some time off the music scene for full recovery.
