In fact, I don\u2019t want to be near it, I just want to live,\u201d Adekunle Gold stated emphatically.<\/p>\n<p>The artiste explained that his avoidance of conflict stems from self-awareness about his temperament. According to him, once a situation begins to escalate, he prefers to remove himself entirely rather than engage.\n<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMe, I know myself. My mouth is not good at all. Anybody that knows me, my mouth is not good. So, I don\u2019t even want to say anything out of regret, so I\u2019d rather just step away,\u201d he confessed.\n<\/p>\n<p>While clarifying that walking away doesn\u2019t equate to weakness or an inability to defend himself when necessary, the singer questioned the mindset of those who actively pursue conflict.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is your mind like? Why do you not like peace? Why do you not like peace of mind? Why don\u2019t you just walk away?\u201d he asked.\n<\/p>\n<p>Watch Video Here:\n<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">\ud835\udc15\ud835\udc08\ud835\udc03\ud835\udc04\ud835\udc0e: \ud835\udc08 \ud835\udc03\ud835\udc28\ud835\udc27\u2019\ud835\udc2d \ud835\udc0b\ud835\udc22\ud835\udc24\ud835\udc1e \ud835\udc13\ud835\udc2b\ud835\udc28\ud835\udc2e\ud835\udc1b\ud835\udc25\ud835\udc1e, \ud835\udc08 \ud835\udc09\ud835\udc2e\ud835\udc2c\ud835\udc2d \ud835\udc16\ud835\udc1a\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc2d \ud835\udc13\ud835\udc28 \ud835\udc0b\ud835\udc22\ud835\udc2f\ud835\udc1e, \ud835\udc12\ud835\udc1a\ud835\udc32\ud835\udc2c \ud835\udc00\ud835\udc1d\ud835\udc1e\ud835\udc24\ud835\udc2e\ud835\udc27\ud835\udc25\ud835\udc1e \ud835\udc06\ud835\udc28\ud835\udc25\ud835\udc1d\n<\/p>\n<p>Credit: X | Olamide Official\n<\/p>\n<p>\u2014<br \/>Follow us for more breaking news and videos <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/jE9X8DU9Kh\" rel=\"nofollow\">pic.twitter.com\/jE9X8DU9Kh<\/a>\n<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Punch Newspapers (@MobilePunch) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/MobilePunch\/status\/2014309630206165160?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">January 22, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<p> All rights reserved.
