Nobody Coerced Me To Joining Islam, Everything About Me Usually Gives People Headache —Actress Lola Alao |PoliFocus

Popular Yoruba actress, Lola Alao, has said she is shocked that her switch from Christianity to Islam could generate much talk.

The actress was speaking with Saturday Beats, where she wondered why there should be so much social media outburst just because she became a Muslim.


She had already disclosed she came from a Muslim background. She said, “I don’t know what the hullabaloo is all about. I am from a Muslim background. My father wasa 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.”

It was rumoured that the actress switched to Islam because of a rich ‘Alhaji’ who she wanted to get married to.

But Lola responded, “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).”
