• In a candid new video, Solid Star delves deeper into his ordeal, recounted his experiences within the confines of ‘Yaba Left’ for the second time.

Renowned Nigerian vocalist, Joshua Iniyezo, famously known as Solid Star, has opened up about his firsthand encounter as a patient at the renowned psychiatric institution in Lagos, colloquially referred to as Yaba Left.

During his appearance on The Honest Bunch podcast, the music star poignantly disclosed his time spent alongside other individuals with mental challenges in the same hospital ward.

Recall that Solid Star recently shared his struggle with addiction to hard substances, particularly Ice, and revealed how he first encountered it in 2021.

In a recent video posted on @Nedu_Official’s Instagram page, he recounted witnessing various degrees of mental instability during his time at Yaba Left.

Solid Star noted that he wasn’t confined to a private ward but shared a general ward with other individuals facing mental challenges. He described how they all had to share a single toilet and bathroom among thirty of them.

He reflected on witnessing some patients exhibiting intense manifestations of their conditions, that prompted him to contemplate the circumstances that led them to that point.

In his words:

“I come go meet myself for Yaba again, this one no funny o, this one I no go private ward o. This one dem tell me say ‘you go see mad people’. I see people wey mad pass me.
