Gospel singer, Sola Allyson, has told her detractors to leave her alone and face their own issues after they accused her of not mentioning “Jesus” in all her songs.
It all began after fellow artiste, Panam Percy Paul granted an interview, where he spoke about the temptations he faced as a gospel singer.
According to him, he was offered £24 million in 1995 to remove “Jesus” from his songs.
After the interview made the rounds on social media, a netizen identified as @Folahanayo1 on X, shared the clip and wrote: “Sola Allyson @thesolaallyson cannot relate. A whole Album and not a single mention of Jesus.
“Here is your 2019 album, IRI. 8 tracks and a runtime of 48 minutes. Throughout the entire album, the name ‘Jesus’ is not mentioned once. (correct me if I’m mistaken). Not even in Track 8 where you talked about who you “Gbekele”. The personal attack is really below you, though.”

Reacting to the backslash, Allyson in a video posted on her official X handle, questioned the motives of her critics.
While stating that she doesn’t want to be associated with their own “Jesus”, she argued that her music is rooted in her own faith and values.
“Why are you people this callous and unkind? Is it until I commit suicide? If this is what you are with your own Jesus, I do not want to be identified with you lots!
“Once again, no one can bully me into joining their darkness that looks like light because indolent souls find comfort in it. I do NOT seek to be with your kind of Jesus. Leave me alone and face your own journey.”
