Renowned Nigerian gospel artist Yinka Alaseyori has made a distressing appeal for prayers and support from the public amidst alleged death threats.
During a recent Instagram live session, Alaseyori emotionally sought the intercession of her followers, revealing that she has been subjected to relentless online harassment for the past six months.
Although she refrained from mentioning specific individuals or groups responsible for the threats, a video capturing her plea has since gone viral, sparking widespread concern and solidarity for the singer’s well-being.
She said:
“I am supposed to fear human beings. I will not die untimely. It has become a taboo. You need to check my DMs. I see people’s comments, curses and I smile. I see people wishing me a lot of things. I will just laugh at you. Because whoever wishes me death is counting the days of death for him or herself.
“If you think what I deserve is to die, you also want to die. If you are calling for death, do not come to my DM. Do not tell anybody about me for evil. If anybody gathers to wish me death, no matter how much they are, even if they are prophets, the angel of death will go after them. This world is wicked. It is so painful and sad. A whole lot of things are going on behind the scenes.
“Please pray for me. I need your help. If you see me on stage, pray for me. And pray for me when you don’t see me or hear from me.”
