Yoruba traditionalists have called out Gospel singer, Tope Alabi to identify with them.
This is coming hours after a video of her using their ‘word’ while ministering in church made rounds online.
The award-winning singer used the word ‘Aboru Aboye’, which is a greeting language among traditional worshippers.
Reacting to it, many social media users bash her for using such words in a church, while others queried her spirituality.
Reactions
One Ccmoney wrote, “Why are people defending what they can’t? The greeting is limited to only the idol worshippers, most especially the Ogboni confraternity. Aboru Aboye; then the recipient would answer Aboye Bosise. If you’re still doubting this as a Yoruba person, please try to greet your parents by saying Aboru Aboye then come back to give me feedback

Tope Alabi finally opens up on her affair with Prophet Ajanaku
Recall that Tope Alabi was linked to the late Prophet Ajanaku, who was into traditional things.
Speaking out on their relationship after his passing, Tope Alabi revealed that she had distanced herself from him even before the scandal.
Alabi, who was rumored to be having an affair with the prophet, said there was nothing sexual between both of them.
According to her, she had already parted ways with the late man of God before rumors of his diabolic ways came to the fore.
Alabi said in an interview with Faaji FM, “There was nothing sexual between Ajanaku and I. I was at his church for ministration and I used to contribute my tithe at his church. Before news made the rounds that he was into traditional things, I had parted ways with him 3 years before then. God revealed to me that he is that kind of person, hence my decision.”
