Speaking to Showbiz in an exclusive interview he said: "People must be careful not to interpret spiritual things with carnal minds. What was happening is a sign from heaven that I should now become a full-time minister in the church."
Eric revealed that he is quitting his job in Gantsi to pursue his calling as a praise and worshipper with the Holy Ghost International headed by Pastor Jackson Kgopolelelo at the end of this month. He said that many people were perplexed when he couldn't sing and was tongue-tied in a recent Mokaragana show and some started fearing that he was either deluded or on drugs, charges that he denies. The teetotaller artist said that he wondered why people believed that he was on habit-forming substances when he has never touched them in his entire life. He also dismissed the insinuation that he might be demon-possessed, insisting he has always lived an upright life.
Eric, who is a qualified health officer, said that he is going to be based at the church's headquarters in Gaborone where he is going to live under the tutelage of his spiritual father, Kgopolelelo.
