Lola Alao has said
people should stop carrying her matter on their heads like sausage.
While speaking with
Saturday Beats, she said, Muslim is not a religion that is new to her as her
forefathers, including her father too were Muslims before they passed on. She
said she is amazed about how people have not let her be after the news got
online.
Her words;
“I don’t know what
the hullabaloo is all about. I am from a
Muslim background. My father was a Muslim. My grandfather was Muslim. My father
was Lasisi Alao. There is no big deal in this. The religion is not new to me. I
chose to follow my mother before; and now I decide to go back to Islam, is
there a problem?
“Fathia Balogun was
a Christian but she changed. Bukky Wright was also a Christian and she changed
to Islam and nobody has tried to crucify them.
How come my own is different? I have not rested. I cannot sleep again. People are saying
different things since they heard the news.”
Chief among the
rumour, being peddled was that Lola switched to Islam because of a rich
‘Alhaji’ who she wanted to get married to.
But the actress
said, “I am happily married, I am not looking for a husband and my husband is
even a Muslim. I was even a Christian before he married me. Nobody forced me
into this religion. Everything about me is usually people’s headache and they
would just carry my matter on their head like gala (sausage).”
