Sola Allyson Faces Backlash for Collaborating with Muslim Actor

Sola Allyson, a gospel singer, disclosed that her decision to invite Nollywood actor Lateef Adedimeji, a Muslim, to one of her programs resulted in the loss of performance bookings. During a public event, Allyson shared that a pastor had arranged for someone to recommend her for engagements while she was in America, but this recommendation never materialized.

She was informed that the withdrawal was due to her collaboration with Adedimeji. The two artists have performed together on several occasions, including a significant performance at Allyson's birthday concert in 2025, where they advocated for cross-religious creative collaboration.

Their partnership has sparked mixed reactions, with some critics expressing discomfort over a gospel setting featuring a Muslim performer. This recent revelation has reignited discussions about religious intolerance, as many viewers reacted to the video of Allyson's experience.

No formal statement has been issued by the pastor or the intermediary involved.
