Former broadcaster Noah King has opened up about his past struggles with drug use, revealing how excessive enjoyment and access to money led him to squander his money during his time at Peace FM.
Speaking in an interview on Lawson FM on November 11, 2026, Noah King recounted how his lifestyle changed after he began working at the Accra-based radio station.
He admitted he lost touch with reality because of the excitement and financial benefits that came with his job.
According to him, the excitement of his new lifestyle eventually introduced him to smoking and excessive spending on drugs and women.

"When I began working at Peace FM, I lost touch with reality. Too much happiness brought me down on my knees, and then I started smoking. Around 2003, I spent not less than 5 million cedis a day, which is equivalent to about GH₵500 today, on drugs and prostitutes. That GH₵500 a day did not include my other expenses," he disclosed.
He explained that he had access to substantial amounts of money at the time, partly because of financial support from politicians and musicians, in addition to coming from a well-to-do family.
Noah King stated that his financial situation made it easy for him to sustain the lifestyle without considering the consequences of his spending.
"Politicians and musicians were giving me money, and I also come from a very good home, so I had a lot of money. Because I was having too much fun, I wasted everything on drugs," he added.
“I used to spend GH¢500 a day on drugs during my days as a presenter at Peace FM.”
