Gospel Singer, Tope Alabi Finally Reacts To Her Alleged Confession To Being A Mermaid

Award winning Gospel singer, Tope Alabi, has reacted to media reports that she confessed to being a mermaid in a new audio. She was on Faaji FM where she debunked the claims and said when the news first went viral, she had thought it to be one of those “media stunts” until a pastor called her to say he listened to the tape and that it was her voice.


She further said:“I was on a foreign musical tour when someone called and said I had released a new audio, where I confessed to being a mermaid. I didn’t believe it because I felt it was just one of those media stunts. So, I just waved the whole thing aside.”It was when I got home and another pastor called me and said he just got the tape and that I was the one. I was dumbfounded. So, I asked him to please play it for me. To my greatest surprise, I actually listened to it over the phone and I just sat there. The voice was exactly my voice. But I just can’t explain how the person did it. The only confession I have ever done and will continue to do is the gospel of Christ.”

The artiste, who had earlier been in the news over an alleged romantic affair with her former ‘spiritual father’, the late Pastor Elijah Iretiola Ajanaku, further revealed her greatest inspiration. “I usually get inspiration for my songs from what I see around me and people’s experiences.” Tope Alabi, also an actress, started out as a member of the Jesters International comedy group. She later went into gospel music after she became a born-again Christian.
