As many people are still expecting popular gospel singer, Tope Alabi, to clear the air on her controversial analysis of ‘Oniduro Mi’, a song by a younger artiste, Yinka Alaseyori, she has sent a coded message to her fans.
Many believe Tope Alabi, who has been widely bashed by those who think she wants to bring down Alaseyori, should speak up or apologise to her.
But she has not made any major statement on the development.
In a Facebook post on Tuesday, however, she said, “Look at yourself in a mirror and tell yourself how proud you are to have come this far. IF NOT FOR GOD…… Have a blessed week.”
The post has generated many reactions, with over 7,000 already greeting it.
Many of the comments still exude raw anger and what can be described as disappointment, by those who feel the inspirational singer should not have treated ‘Oniduro’ as she did.
Many respondents, however, remain loyal and friendly with her, with some of them nothing that to err is man.
Here are some of the comments (sic):
When are you going to clear the air on the controversy you recently stirred about Yinka Alaseyori’s hit song? You owe us a robust explanation.

Motivational speaker, you should have emulate Okonkwo in Things Fall Apart. He said but he called me father. This lady call you maami. Haba.

I think Tope Alabi is arrogant and canals, your songs doesn’t match up with your life styles and mode of dressing, you don’t know the meaning of gospel singers you just use title, You are not greater than Moses who because of angers prevented from entering Canna Land,TOPE COME OUT OF YOUR PRIDE AND SINCERELY AND OPENLY APOLOGIZE SO THAT YOU CAN GO FAR AND END WELL, DON’T BE LIKE QUEEN FASHTH WHO WAS REPLACED BY HUMBLE ESTHER ..
…
We’re human and imperfection lies in us. Regardless of all the gbas gbos that came your way in the last two days, you still remain my very best.
May God continue to guide and guard you right. Aunty Tope, e ni wa’le lagbara olorun.
