Nigerian Singer, Burna Boy Reveals He Has Converted To Islam, Shares View About Creation (Videos)
Burna Boy, the world-famous, Nigerian Grammy Award–winning Afrofusion artist, has embraced Islam.
The claim of Burna Boy’s conversion to Islam had surfaced on social media earlier, sparking widespread reactions and debate among fans and followers of the award-winning artist.
The conversation began after Nigerian socialite and fashion enthusiast, Rahman Jago, shared a video of Burna Boy on 𝕏 (formerly Twitter), in which the singer was heard saying “Alhamdulillah,” an Arabic phrase commonly used by Muslims meaning “Praise be to God.”
The short clip quickly gained traction online, with many users questioning whether the frequent use of Islamic expressions by the singer signified a formal change of faith.
Some fans noted that Burna Boy had, on several occasions, used Arabic phrases in his songs and public appearances, fuelling speculation that he may have embraced Islam privately.
Amid the growing curiosity, former presidential aide Bashir Ahmad weighed in on the issue after being asked about the development on 𝕏.
Responding to an inquiry, Ahmad wrote, “Some people close to him said he converted to Islam, but there has been no official confirmation directly from him yet.”
His response appeared to suggest that while there were claims from associates of the artiste, there had been no public declaration from Burna Boy himself.
However, Rahman Jago later entered the online discussion again, making a categorical statement about the singer’s faith.
“He converted. He is now a Muslim,” Jago wrote.
Burna Boy confirmed his conversion to Islam from Christianity on Plaueboymax’s livestream where he shared his view about the creation.
The development has continued to generate mixed reactions, with some congratulating the artiste, while others have urged his view about creation.

S+x Is The Only Reason I Got Married To My Husband— Reverend(Mrs) Stellamaris Ajetomobi
In a striking statement about marital roles, Rev. Mrs. Stellamaris Ajetomibi, Vice President of The Men of Issachar Vision Inc., shared her perspective on what she considers the “core assignment” in marriage.
“S+x is marriage, sex is marriage. Let me tell you, in my father’s house, I used to wear clothes. I eat rice, I eat any food. I have house to live, everything. What do you think I came to look for in my husband’s house? It’s s+x. It’s s+x,” she declared.
She emphasized the exclusivity of her marital duties: “If I do it with any other man, I will be stoned. If I do it with any other man, God will frown at it. So he’s the only one I have liberty to do it with, and they even gave me a certificate, as many of you that were there that day.”
On practical support, Ajetomibi clarified the distinction between household help and her main responsibility: “You can help me cook, that’s not bad. You can help me wash clothes, that’s not bad. In fact, you can help me do homework for my children. I pay teachers to do that. This assignment, this is the core assignment. I can’t pay anybody. If I catch you to doing it, it’s g+n down.”

Actress Biola Adebayo Tenders Apology Over Interview With Baba Ijesha (Video)
Popular Nigerian actress and podcaster Biola Adebayo has publicly apologized for featuring actor Baba Ijesha on her podcast.
Recall that Baba Ijesha, who was recently released from prison over sexual assault related offense, appeared on Talk to B podcast over the weekend.
Sharing his own side of the story, Baba Ijesha claimed that the allegation was false and accused comedienne, Princess of setting hin up.
He also stated that actress Iyabo Ojo who supported his imprisonment once entrusted her kids, Priscilla and Festus in his custody.
The interview sparked criticism, with followers of Iyabo Ojo and Princess accusing Biola Adebayo of using her platform to encourage child abuse.
Reacting to the heavy criticism on Tuesday evening, Biola Adebayo, who had earlier taken down the video, tendered a public apology.
While denying allegation of using her platform to exonerate him, Biola disclosed that she is also a rape victim.
Speaking in a trending video on her Instagram page, she said “I apologise to everyone. I’m very sorry, please forgive me. I will never support a rapist or pedophile. I thought I was just an interviewer, my role is to interview him, hear what he had to say.
“I thought he would apologise but he did not do so. But it’s not in my place to condemn him. My platform is for the good and the bad, it’s for both Saint and the sinners. The platform is not for only the people that you like alone. I’m a mother, a Christian and I’m also a rape victim.
”So, I will never enable anybody. The interview was not to exonerate Baba Ijesha, to agree with whatever he was saying or for him to come and claim innocent on my show. And a lot of people are insinuating that the video is to tarnish Iyabo Ojo’s image. I will never do that”, she said.
