“Bullying caused me to lose all social skills.” — Kizz Daniel

Renowned musician Kizz Daniel, whose real name is Oluwatobiloba Daniel Anidugbe, has revealed that he struggles to socialize because of the bullying he experienced as a child.

He claimed that because he was overweight as a child, the other kids teased and bullied him.

The “Buga” crooner revealed this on the most recent Afrobeats Podcast episode, which was hosted by Adesope Olajide.

“Since I was young, I have created my own imaginary world in my mind,” he remarked. Because I was a fat child growing up. I was overweight. I therefore avoid going out since the local youngsters tease me. I was dubbed orobo (someone who is overweight) by them. They also mistreated me. I thus always stay inside.

I had already created this imaginary world in my mind throughout the time I spent staying inside all the time. I feel quite at ease in the universe I’ve created in my imagination.

“I lost all social skills when I lost weight, so I had to reintroduce myself to the world.” I have no idea how to speak. I have no idea how to interact with others socially.

Kizz Daniel went on to say that he occasionally drinks alcohol to help him cope with his social anxiety.
