Wednesday 27th Oct.2021:Best of wishes and pleasantries have continued to roll in as Popular Nigerian gospel singer, Tope Alabi, celebrates her 51st birthday today.
 Already celebratory messages have been sent to the sonorous singer by her family, friends and fans; most especially via social media platforms.
Notably amongst all is her husband’s, celebrating his wife, Soji Alabi in a loving message shared on his Instagram account described Tope, as his best friend.
He wrote, “Happy birthday to my best friend, my lovely and dearest wife @tope_alabi_ You will live long to eat the fruit of your labour. No weapon formed against you shall prosper in Jesus name. I celebrate the grace of God in your life. God bless your new age. Love you forever.” (sic).

I am not a perfect person…” Tope Alabi Finally Aplologise to Oniduro Singer  Adeyinka Alaseyori
Also,  Adeyinka Alaseyori ,the popular ‘Oniduro mi’ singer, , sent a birthday message to her colleague and thanked her for ‘holding on strong’.
She wrote via her verified Facebook account, “Thank you for breaking limits and boundaries. Thank you for making it possible for most of us to dream. Thanks for holding on strong. Thank you for being all that God has called you to be. A very happy birthday to you ma’am. The best of your days have just begun ma. Congratulations momma.”(sic)
It will be recalled that In June 2021, a video made rounds on the Nigerian digital space, which showed ace gospel singer, Tope Alabi, criticising a popular Christian song, Oniduro Mi, which was sung by iconic singers, Tolu Adelegan; and Adeyinka Alaseyori, at different times.
In the Yoruba language, Oniduro Mi simply means guarantor. The song exalts God as a guarantor and one who never forsakes His own.
Tope Alabi had noted in her comments on the song that God was more than a guarantor to her. The singer further said that there was a time she wanted to sing the song but the Holy Spirit cautioned her against doing so.
Several Nigerians and gospel music fans however took to Social media  especially Twitter to express their displeasure, with some online comments bashing Alabi.
Alaseyori, whose version of the ‘Oniduro Mi’ song seems more popular, seemed ontop of the situation as she kept mum until a video surfaced online where she described Tope Alabi as her mother, and called for peace over the situation.
“Let Jesus take the wheel. Mummy Tope Alabi is our mother. She’s a mother to me and so many others and by virtue, we have been blessed by her ministrations. Please, let us worship and celebrate God. Let Jesus be at the centre of it,” she said
