In an emotional reflection shared in his own words, he admitted that the addiction left him grappling with lost opportunities, strained family relationships, and emotional turmoil.
Wolokoso describes alcohol as the force that “robbed him of everything” he once believed was secure: his career prospects, financial stability, and the trust of those closest to him.
He says he has watched opportunities slip away over time, including jobs and chances he was unable to pursue as his dependency grew.

What once felt like a promising path has since turned into “a life he does not recognise.” The impact, he explains, has not only been professional but deeply personal.
He speaks of a fractured relationship with his parents, saying their warmth has been replaced by disappointment and silence.
He also reflects on the emotional distance that has grown between him and his two children, noting that trust within his family has been severely eroded.
Wolokoso further describes how friendships have faded, replaced by isolation and loneliness.
Once regularly in contact with friends, he now finds himself largely alone, with communication reduced to silence.
Despite maintaining a public presence online through a Facebook page, he admits that much of his life behind the screen has been marked by emotional struggle, self-doubt, and what he describes as depression that gradually took hold during his addiction.
He reflects on years spent masking his difficulties with humour and appearances, while internally feeling increasingly detached and overwhelmed.
At times, simple social interactions feel difficult, and the weight of regret has become heavy, acknowledging the depth of his struggle and the emotional toll it has taken on his well-being.
