Who is Alostro?

Alostro, whose real name is Mohau Louis, is a South African musician and social media personality who became known for his recovery from nyaope addiction.

According to the Daily Sun, he gained popularity through videos of him on the streets, showcasing his transformation from a nyaope user to a performing musician.

TimesLive reports that Lewis was named “Alostro” after he went viral when he messed up an SABC interview, which put a spotlight on how homeless people lived in government camps during the Covid-19 lockdown in Pretoria.

While the broadcaster was talking to a homeless man about their realities, Lewis interrupted , saying “you see others here, they have Alostro”. To this day, nobody knows what he meant.

Lewis became homeless after selling his belongings because of his addiction. He explained to the publication that he sold his four-room house in Mabopane, his van and his recording studio.

He said drugs damaged him physically and mentally to the point where he couldn't walk.

"I couldn’t think straight when I needed a fix. We mugged people. I spent 18 months in prison for using drugs,” he said.

Alostro's story has become an inspiration, particularly in Limpopo, as he has become an anti-drugs advocate.
