Nollywood actor Yemi My Lover has discussed his relationship with gospel singer Tope Alabi, which now appears strained.
During an interview on Biola Bayo’s Talk Show, Talk To B, he reminisced about their past, highlighting Alabi’s efforts to connect with him.
He revealed Alabi as one of the industry figures who sought guidance from him.
Recalling their interactions, he mentioned visiting Alabi’s home in Oshodi, where her mother entrusted her care to him.
Emphasizing his integrity, he stated that he isn’t one of such artistes who sleeps around with his workers.
Speaking on their current relationship status, he stated that they are both good to each other.
He said, “Tope Alabi is one of those who passed through me in the industry. We are both good to each other.
I remember the year that she said it herself when she got to my place that she had been looking for me for over a year or two. I said the other time that we don’t know the value of what this work carries. You might want to see an artiste then, and you will be searching for two years or more before you see them. Eventually, she went through a lot to see me and she got my place and I accepted her wholly because she was hardworking and gifted with music. When she was with me, we used to go to their house in Oshodi. We can go away for a week or 2 and her mother wouldn’t be worried or bothered because she had already handed her over to me. Because I am not that rubbish artiste, that cannot be trusted with girls. When she was with me, I saw her musical talent, but she wasn’t that good at acting”.
