Muslim and Christian: Nasboi Tells His Story
Popular Nigerian skitmaker and musician, Lawal Nasiru, widely known as Nasboi, has revealed that he identifies as both a Muslim and a Christian.
The comedian explained that his unique family background — with a Yoruba Muslim father and a Christian mother from Warri — shaped his open-minded views on religion and tribalism.
Sharing on his X (formerly Twitter) page, Nasboi wrote:
“My papa Yoruba, my mama Warri. My papa Muslim, my mama Christian.
I was born and raised in Port Harcourt. I studied at the University of Uyo, Akwa Ibom. This is why I can never relate to tribalism or all the religious agendas.”
When a fan asked him to clarify his religion, Nasboi responded humorously, saying he is “Christmus” — a blend of Christian and Muslim.
