Nigerian Christians Blast Asake Over ‘Only Me’ Music Video

Ahmed Ololade, the Nigerian singer, widely recognized as Asake, faces significant backlash for his attire resembling that of a priest in his latest music video titled ‘Only Me’.

In his latest music video, the singer, along with his backup singers and dancers, donned attire reminiscent of priests conducting a Catholic mass in a church setting.

However, numerous Nigerian Christians have voiced their disapproval of Asake’s use of props, emphasizing that his actions were disrespectful to the Christian faith.

Dramatizing giving the Eucharist, robed up in priestly regalia for a music video that has no connection with Christianity, is disrespectful. In his Bandana video, he depicts black goats troping into the church, with cloven tongues of fire above weird men. Asake, I think, is a Muslim. Why doesn’t he go above and beyond to embarrass his Muslim faith in this same way? Why do Christians even listen to these musicians who bluntly disrespect Christianity?”

@damilola069: “Christian religion looks like playing ground, you can do anything and go scot free.”

@BG_Liberty: “This video 2/10, who directed this? who accepted the idea? what a disrespect to Christianity‍♂. I wish you can try this with your own religion.”

@martins.turner: “Asake look at how you mocked the catholic religion, your battles is with God, Asake do the needful and delete this video.”
