The musician simply defended herself after getting blasted for a video which shows her dancing “Zanku.”
According to Tope, she attended her dad’s burial and she just wanted to worship God in her own way.
She added that she loves to dance since it was a difficult experience to bury her father.
Her words, “I needed that dance. It was at my father’s burial and the praise was organised by some gospel artists to just worship God,”
“I needed to worship God, I just need to. It’s not easy to bury your father. Some people die before their parents. As a spiritual person, you know you need that dance.”
May her Dads soul R.I.P
