Nigerian DJ Kulet Reveals Past as Prostitute, Credits Jesus for Transformation

Nigerian disc jockey Kudirat Gbemisola, known professionally as DJ Kulet, publicly shared her testimony of transformation, revealing that she once worked as a prostitute in Lagos State before embracing Christianity. Speaking during a Sunday church service, she recounted her past struggles and how she overcame them through faith. In a video that later went viral on social media, DJ Kulet described herself as a “very popular prostitute” in the Surulere area of Lagos, where she grew up in Lawanson. “I just want to say thank you Jesus because my story here in Surulere was a very bad one,” she said. “Everybody knows me because I grew up in Lawanson. But I repent, and God removed me from the gutter.”

The DJ detailed her journey from homelessness to stability. She initially rented a single room in a “face me I slap” apartment, earning the money through sex work. Later she moved to a self‑contained room, and eventually secured a room‑and‑parlor apartment thanks to her work as a DJ, despite facing a landlord who failed to provide basic amenities like a toilet for two years. Her fortunes changed dramatically when she could afford a four‑bedroom en‑suite apartment through her DJ career.

In April 2025, DJ Kulet revealed that God had blessed her with the ability to purchase her own home in Surulere outright, without resorting to her former lifestyle. “I did not sleep around to pay, and I paid in full with agent money,” she said in a video shared on her Instagram page. Her testimony highlights a complete turnaround—from a troubled past to a successful career in music and real estate—and has resonated with many Nigerians, especially those familiar with her previous life in Surulere.

DJ Kulet had previously disclosed in 2025 that she had been molested by a family member, adding another layer to her complex personal history. She says that her faith has transformed that experience as well. Her testimony serves as an example of personal redemption and the potential for change, regardless of one’s past circumstances.
