Renowned gospel singer, Tope Alabi has explained why she stopped helping people in the music industry, citing experiences of betrayal and conflict.

During a discussion, the veteran singer said some of the individuals she supported and accommodated later turned against her. She explained that this changed how she relates with people in the entertainment space.

She recalled one incident involving a married couple she allowed to stay in her home while supporting the woman’s music career.

Tope Alabi explained that the female singer had already started gaining recognition and even recorded two albums while staying under her roof.

“This lady had started making it then. She already did two albums under my roof,” she said.

However, she alleged that the woman’s husband caused tension in the house due to what she described as a controlling attitude and his refusal to contribute positively.

The gospel singer said the man insisted that it was wrong for him to support his wife’s music career, even though he expected to enjoy a comfortable stay in the house.

She added that the situation became difficult, leading her to ask the couple to leave.

According to her, the woman’s music career declined after they moved out.

Tope Alabi also shared another experience involving a different couple whom she said later turned against her despite the help she gave them.

She further claimed that another group she supported eventually moved in with her opponents after leaving her home and allegedly shared personal details about her.

She said these experiences caused emotional and spiritual challenges for her and her family, though she expressed gratitude for overcoming that period.

Looking back, Tope Alabi said she eventually stopped helping people in the industry due to what she described as repeated betrayal. (TRIBUNE)
