Popular Gospel singer Tope Alabi has opened up about the painful past experiences that made her stop helping upcoming musicians. She recently shared the story during a ministration, and fans have been reacting.
Recalling how she once went out of her way to support a promising female singer by moving her entire family to Lagos, Tope shared that the woman’s husband eventually resisted his role as a keyboard player, claiming his family tradition did not allow him to play instruments for women.
Thanking God for standing solidly behind her, the songstress added that arrows have been shot at her for trying to help others.
Her words, “I met a lady that knows how to sing, I wanted to lift her, so I brought her, her kids and husband to Lagos. I don’t want to mention her name so you guys won’t know who she is, I told her we will be staying together, any spiritual problems should come and face us together.
Whenever we sing together, I always charge her money together with mine so I will collect it and pay it to her because they don’t want to pay her separately.
When they wanted to start their drama, the husband, who knows how to play keyboard and gangan drum, suddenly said they don’t play for women in their family. When I asked them to leave, they went straight to my enemy’s house and started living with my enemy and even told them my prayer point and how I used to pray against my enemies.
I helped another lady like that too, she and her husband were against me after helping them. This last set almost killed me, if not for God behind me and my family. Different arrows were shot at me, but I thank God, the Lord rescued me and my family. That’s why I have stopped.”
WOW.
