Nollywood actor Jamiu Azeez has addressed reports of converting to Christianity.
Newsunplug reported that the Muslim actor had raised eyebrows after celebrating the New Year in a White Garment Church. He was seen in a video attending church service wearing a white robe and holding a candle during service.
The video sparked reactions from many Christians, who welcomed him into the Christian faith.
Addressing the issue on his Instagram page, Jamiu noted that it’s only in Nigeria that people are bothered about another person’s life. He expressed bewilderment at how people are telling a man in his 40s how to live his life.
According to Jamiu, the comments he has been reading on blogs, especially on Facebook, have been crãzy, and some online users have gone as far as sliding into his comment to drag him.
Jamiu said no one will be accountable for his life, and he can choose to practice any religion. He noted that he hasn’t confirmed whether he has converted, and people are already dragging him.
“It’s only in Nigeria that people are so bothered about another person’s life.
Imagine telling a man in his 40s how to live his life.
I posted myself in a White Garment on the Cross Over night, and, man, the comments I have been reading in blogs, especially on Facebook, are crãzy.
Some even came to my DM to drag me, like bro, you will not be accountable for my life, oo.
I can choose to practice any religion, and that should not be anyone’s problem.
I never even come out to say I have converted oo.
Una wan kpai me.
No worry, I go wear Babalowo cloth tomorrow”.
