Ruger opens up about traumatic first heartbreak at age 6

Nigerian singer Michael Adebayo Olayinka, better known as Ruger, has opened up about the emotional scars left by his first heartbreak at the tender age of 6.

The Toma Toma hitmaker shared this personal story during a recent episode of The Bro Bants show, recalling the moment that left him deeply traumatised.

According to Ruger, his first heartbreak occurred when an older woman, whom he considered his girlfriend, showed him affection by calling him “my boyfriend.”

The young Ruger believed that their bond was real, but his innocence was shattered when he witnessed the woman with another man.

“I got heartbroken because one day, I saw some guy smashing her through her window. The guy was tearing her up, bro. I cried. I was traumatised,” Ruger recounted.

“I started singing Imagine That by Styl-Plus. That was what started my toxicity. That experience broke my heart.”
