Kennis Music act Joel Amadi aka Joel has opened up on one of his traumas he has been experiencing since the death of his father who was killed by bandits in Kaduna State.
The musician who opened up on this during an interview with PUNCH said that he has been fighting bandits in his dreams and is usually scared anything his mum or his sister call from Kaduna.
He said; “One of the traumas I still go through is that anytime any of my sisters or mum calls me, the first thing that pops up in my head is ‘Hope these people are safe’? That fear just comes.

“On the day that incident happened, it was my younger sister who called and when I answered the phone, she narrated everything to me. She told me how they hid under the bed, while gunshots were sounding everywhere.
“Since my dad’s demise, anytime I sleep, even if it’s a 30 minutes nap, I see myself in a dream battling with bandits or herdsmen. Now, I have even become used to it because it hit me so hard. I am the only son and have to take care of three grown women (sisters and mum).
“Anytime I look around and see that my dad is not around, it makes me feel very miserable. But, prayers have been keeping me strong. Anytime I feel ‘down’, I talk to God and I beg Him to give me strength because I have to stay alive and strong for my mother and sisters,” Joel added.
