He added that prior to that moment when the tweets went viral, he had not been in a good space mentally and that dearly affected him since people were not kind with their words.

I was already dealing with a lot. I had just landed in Ghana, and I didn't have time to breathe and reset. And then I got hit with that as well.

I even felt sad for you. Let’s be guided always because we don’t know what tomorrow holds

The key like KiDi rightly said is ‘unlearn to relearn’. He’s remorseful for his actions and knows better now. Kudos to you KiDi……EVERYONE HAS A PAST THEY ARE NOT SO PROUD OF. We move on!!!!
