Renowned gospel singer, Tope Alabi has condemned what she described as fake love among gospel artistes in the music industry.
Alabi made the observation at the ‘Celebrating Jesus 7.0’ concert in Ibadan on Sunday.
She expressed frustration over the level of jealousy and bitter rivalries among her peers in the industry
The singer emphasized the need for support and unity between the already established and emerging artists, reminding her senior colleagues to prioritize their legacy and accountability before God over fame and success.
She said, ”God will hold us accountable for these things. Let us stop it. It is high time we knew 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 at one another, they are faking it. This is getting out of hand and God will ask us.”
