Rumor about a Nigerian Gospel Singer, YinKa AyeFele converting to Islam.

Nigerians will not Kill themselves with fake News....


– Gospel Singer, Yinka Ayefele, hosted Muslims to a Ramadan lecture sparking rumors about his conversion to Islam


In a swift reaction to the conjectures supported by various media resources, Mr Ayefele released a statement through his publicist David Ajiboye.

The statement reads in part: "We believe the Rumor must have emanated from the annual Ramadan Lecture, which Fresh 105.9FM, owned by Ayefele, organized on Tuesday, in Ibadan, Oyo state Nigeria.

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 naive minds went to town to spread the rumour about Ayefele's conversion."

The station positions itself as opening for each and everyone regardless of religion, race or colour, it adds:"We believe its part of our social responsibility to organize such a spiritual rebirth programme to sensitize our Muslim listeners on the ideals of Islam most especially in this holy season."
Nigeria, the largest African country by population (over 182 million in 2015), is nearly equally divided between Christianity and Islam though the exact ratio is uncertain.

Nigeria has one of the largest Muslim populations in West Africa, with the Pew Research Center estimating that it is between 48.5% (2010) and 50.4% (2009). The CIA estimates 50% while the BBC estimates slightly over 50% (2007)
