Angry Nigerians on social media
are attacking legendary singer and songwriter, Innocent Idibia popularly known
as 2face or 2Baba, after endorsing a provoking post criticizing the holy bible.
A Nigerian social critic, Ikhide
Ikheloa, popularly known as Pa Ikhide, criticized Africans for still believing
in the Bible and the ‘White man’s God.’
He wrote “Unpopular opinion: The
bible is a great work of fiction, a tool of oppression created by feuding
brothers to oppress women, children and the vulnerable. It is homophobic and
racist and to the extent that white slave hunters prayed over captured warriors
from West Africa with the bible before they were shipped off to be slaves”
“it boggles my mind that an
African would look at that bible and not hiss in disgust. Their God looked away
during the middle passage as millions of Africans perished during the slave
trade. We had our own religion before the coming of the white man. What is
wrong with us? We are our own slaves. Onugo of my people lives in me, Open your
eyes. Nonsense”
Endorsing the post, 2face took to
his Instagram handle to share a screenshot of it, and captioned it “Africa Wake
up#openyourmind #openyoureyes #ONELOVERELIGION Emancipate yourself from mental
slavery.”
Fans of the multiple award-winning singer have since been lashing him out, below are some of their comments.
