Eric Noah King, a radio presenter who rose to his prime in the early 2000s, has mentioned spirituality as the cause of drug addiction.
He told Kwame Dadzie on Joy FM’s Showbiz A-Z that after many of doing drugs, he could finally break away from the shackles of the addiction through prayers.
According to him, it is very impossible for anyone who is into drugs to quit, if they don’t set their minds to it and do not pray about it.
“It’s a spiritual thing, so if you take spirituality out of cocaine and heroin addiction, you’ve missed the goal, you’ve missed the mark. Trust me,” he said.
Talking about the ordeal he went through in dealing with the drug addiction, he advised that people who are in such situations should first have the will to change before they seek help in a rehab.
Noah King recounted that he got into drugs even before he started his radio career. He said after completing his O’Level education, he went to a club one day when after having a chat with a lady, a friend suggested to him, he could boost his confidence in talking to women by using heroin mixed with weed. After the first experience, he got stuck to it.
The 46-year-old broadcaster further noted that he has been able to stay away from any form of drug for the past 14 months.
“I have quit drugs for good,” he said in the interview.
Recounting his life changing story, he spoke about how he finally decided to give up on drugs.
“I realised that I needed to eat the humble pie, come down low and then see what God would do in my life if I chose a rehab centre. And trust me even since I stepped foot at the Chosen Rebab Centre my life has been transformed for good. I am now indomnitable like the sand, impeccable like the moon and inexplicable like the stars. This is the doing of the Lord and it is marvelous in our eyes,” he noted.
Noah King, who did drugs for 25 years, said his addiction was so strong that at a point in time, he was even pilfering money from the offertory bowl in church so he could get money to buy crack.
Currently receiving treatment at the Chosen Rehab Centre in Accra, he has also been appointed the Communications Director of the centre.
Noah King used to be a drive time presenter in the early 2000s at Peace FM.
