If not, why the ‘aboru aboye’? I don’t think so. Not at all. Is she crazy? No, sir. For the first time, Tope Alabi got it right. She got it right! It is not easy to ‘ru ebo’ and for that Ebo to ‘bi ye’. It is a grace from God. Congratulations, Tope!

Whoever is angry with you on this should go and jump into the sea.

For me, I share that grace of yours. I want the Lord Almighty to make me an aboru and aboye and abo sise.

An authentic Yoruba expression, it is a mere Yoruba word for everyone, not only for my people who believe in African tradition.

The Truth is bitter. I have never for once spared Tope Alabi whenever she was drunk on Ogogoro Jesu or danced like a slut. I never hide my feelings.

However, I am stunned that some of us who should understand her, particularly the omo Yoruba ponbele, are the ones pillorying her for employing the real language for which prayers are called and addressed.

Have we forgotten that ‘ Adura ni ebo onigbagbo?

In Catholic Church, the Mass

is the Ebo and we always pray to the Lord to accept our supplications via the Mass. Hence the song ‘ Tewo gbebo wa Baba wa tewogbebowa, ‘ Ebo is the prayer which you launch or supplicate to the Lord, the act of supplicating is the ‘ru. Not all have the grace of having his prayers accepted by God. It is easy to supplicate (ru ebo) it is not easy for the supplication to be accepted by God (ye). It is the realisation of this that many people consult others to pray and supplicate for them because they have special Grace from God.

Tope Alabi has not done anything amiss

In fact, for the first time, she acted well.

I pray to God to make me an aboru and an aboye.

God bless Tope Alabi.

Her Grace of Aboru and Aboye will not dry like the Sea which never Dry.

Whoever does not want to be an aboru and aboye should continue to hire prayer warriors and make themselves the ATM of spiritual exploiters.

Tope Alabi has declared herself an aboru and an aboye

What is your problem with that?

Leave the lady alone

    Well, if you watch the video cursorily, the message is there for a discerning child of God! If Tope Alabi belongs to the secular music genre, no high brow, no problem! The Bible we read doesn’t support that song, the unbelievers understand her better!

    Uncle Wale, is it you that Tọpẹ Alabi songs to? Let God that she songs to pronounce on her and castigate her also There are numerous gospel musicians that songs detrimentally than Tọpẹ Alabi yet you don’t criminalise them, so, leave her for God.
