June 13, (THEWILL)- Ace Gospel singer, Tope Alabi, is being roasted in the media over her viral video where she criticised a now popular song, “Oniduro Mi,” by iconic singer, Yinka Alaseyori.
THEWILL writes that in Yoruba, Oniduro Mi means “Guarantor,” and Alaseyori in her song praised God as her Guarantor –one who never forsakes His people.
Commenting on the song, Alabi stated that God was more than a Guarantor and there was a time she wanted to sing the song but the Holy Spirit told her not to do so.
Tope Alabi’s comment quickly sparked negative reactions from music lovers as the Gospel singer is presently trending across social media platforms.
Speaking on the issue on her Instagram page, Nollywood actress, Anita Joseph, wrote, “But there’s nothing wrong with this line anyway. The song is blown, the thing don enter Gospel musicians’ side. Open it season. Sending them LOVE and LIGHT kpichicom Awa’ m.”
Singer, Slimcase, was of the view that Tope Alabi could have had a private discussion with Alaseyori.
He wrote, “Get wisdom; in all thy getting, get understanding. What if she holla at her and tell her in private. That’s why the Bible says ‘Come let us reason together’.”
Adetutu Balogun wrote: “Tope Alabi publicly condemned Yinka Alaseyori’s Onídùró mi song, but God changed the criticism to free PR.
“Genesis 50:20 ‘But as for you, you meant evil against me; but God meant it for good, in order to bring it about as it is this day, to save many people alive.”
Also, @biolamakiju wrote, “The Oniduro himself has used Tope Alabi to catapult Yinka Alaseyori more into limelight. Shey you see as Oniduro dey work. Oniduro, thank you oo.”
