Tope Alabi laments rivalry among gospel singers

Gospel singer, Tope Alabi has bemoaned what she called "fake love" among gospel musicians.

At the "Celebrating Jesus 7.0" concert in Ibadan on Sunday, Tope Alabi made this statement.

She voiced her displeasure with the degree of envy and acrimonious rivalry among her industry counterparts prior to her performance.

Alabi challenged her senior colleagues to put their legacy and accountability before God ahead of success and popularity, while also highlighting the importance of unity and solidarity between established and up-and-coming musicians.

”God will hold us accountable for these things. Let us stop it. It is high time we know that we are working for the kingdom and not for ourselves or fame. The bigger ones separated themselves from the up-and-coming. And yet the bigger ones still fight themselves again, what do you want those coming up to do?

“The emerging ones are already against each other. These children coming up are already backstabbing and emulating us because we started it. They are enemies to each other and smile with one another, they are faking it. This is getting out of hand and God will ask us.”
