Popular Gospel singer Sola Allyson has addressed her friendship with Nollywood actor Lateef Adedimeji. She recently revealed that their ceative bond remains strong despite their differing religious backgrounds.
Speaking in a footage of her recent concert in Lagos shared by Adedimeji on Instagram, she emphasised that their shared creativity transcends faith.
According to her, because she and Lateef are both children of God at the end of the day, religion cannot separate them.
Sola stated that even though they see God differently as Christians and Muslims, he’ll always be her brother and fellow believer.
“Lateef is a creative, I am a creative, religion can’t separate us, Lateef is a child of God, I am a child of God. We see our father differently, Lateef is my brother, so you can do with that whatever you like,” she said.
The songstress further noted that it does not matter if the music is a Christian or Muslim song, as long as the listeners are blessed through it.
“So Lateef is going to sing to us and sing here today and if I know the song he is singing, I am going to sing with him. And the song is going to be sweet and you will be blessed,” Sola continued.
Adedimeji concluded by expressing his admiration for Allyson’s songs, stressing that religious differences do not diminish their meaning to him.
“Listening to BBO and Aunty Sola’s songs doesn’t make me less of a Muslim; your songs speak to me just like a Muslim song will speak to me. God is a formless entity,” he added.
