Gospel tungba singer, Yinka Ayefele, has debunked reports that he has converted to Islam.
Rumours of the conversion became rife on Thursday with fans of the Ekiti cultural ambassador both home and abroad making calls to find out the veracity of the claim.
A release issued by his media handler, David Ajiboye however said the Prayer Point singer is still a Christian and has no reason whatsoever to renounce his faith and believe.
“We believe the rumour must have emanated from the annual Ramadan Lecture, which Fresh 105.9FM owned by Ayefele organised on Tuesday, in Ibadan,” the release began.
“Our station, Fresh 105.9FM had invited popular Islamic preacher, Alhaji Muideen Ajani Bello as the guest preacher at our annual Ramadan Lecture, which had over 4,000 people in attendance and because of this, some naïve minds went to town to spread the rumour about Ayefele’s conversion.”
Ajiboye stated further that the station is for everybody irrespective of religion, race or colour.
“We believe it’s part of our social responsibility to organise such a spiritual rebirth programme to sensitise our Muslim listeners on the ideals of Islam most especially in this holy season.”
