“Yes, I am a Muslim. Born into a Muslim home and was raised as one. If you care to know, B2 in my WAEC Examination. I have a loving Muslim Father who has given his children the free will to choose any religion they like be it Christianity or Islam. My Mom is a Christian, though not a practicing one. My Stepmom is a Christian, My stepsisters are Christians, my Stepbrothers are Muslims,” she wrote.

“Have I been to a Church before? Plentyyyyy of them. I once converted, name the Church, MFM, RCCG, CLAM, CAC sure been there but one thing was certain, Islam never left me. My ways of dealing, my upbringing, all I learnt was from a Muslim and was what I truly knew.”
She admitted yearning to go back to Islam for a long time. She later decided to live her life on her own terms and went back to practicing Islam in December 2016.
“I came back to Islam. I feel fulfilled. I’m happier. I have received more Blessings this way. My oldest son practices Islam prays and fasts as well.
“Yes, I wear what I like, be it modest or not. Who are you to decide my inner intentions? You know, it’s easy for you to type on your keypads and make assumptions, but folks who know me will say otherwise.” the actress added
“Islam I was taught teaches me that we are judged on our intentions by Allah alone. What’s within, not what you see. Not looking for acceptance from anyone. I want people to live their life’s to its full potentials.
