“Fathia Balogun And Bukky Wright Were Christians Before They Converted, They Weren’t Criticized, Why Me?” – Lola Aloa Hits Back At Critics.

Just hours after popular Yoruba actress, Lola Alao, publicly announced that she had converted from being a Christian to a Muslim, lot of critics have trailed her sudden decision to dump Christendom.
In a recent chat with Saturday Beats, the
actress said she wondered why there should be so much frenzy that she became a Muslim as she disclosed that she came from a Muslim background.I don’t know what the hullabaloo is all about. I am from a Muslim background. My father was a 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.”
One of the reasons speculated on why she changed was that she switched to Islam because of a rich ‘Alhaji’ who she wanted to get married to.
But the actress said:

“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).”
