Skitmaker and singer Lawal Nasiru, popularly known as Nasboi, has revealed that he identifies as both a Muslim and a Christian.
The entertainer explained that his diverse family background shaped his open-mindedness toward religion. According to him, his father is a Yoruba Muslim, while his mother is a Christian from Warri, which makes it impossible for him to be biased or intolerant.
Sharing his thoughts on his X (Twitter) page, Nasboi wrote:
“My papa Yoruba, my mama Warri. My papa Muslim, my mama Christian.
I was born and raised in Port Harcourt. I studied at the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom. This is why I can never relate to tribalism or all the religious agendas.”
When a fan inquired about his religious affiliation, Nasboi responded humorously, saying he is “Christmus” a blend of Christian and Muslim.
His statement stirred mixed reactions online, with some netizens praising his inclusiveness, while others criticized him, describing his stance as “confusing.”
