New Controversy As 9ice Expresses Spiritual Perspectives

9ice has generated new discussions online following his assertive comments about his spiritual beliefs, which have reignited conversations regarding religion, tradition, and identity.

In a video posted on his Instagram page over the weekend, the singer stated that his parents hold the highest spiritual significance in his life, describing them in profoundly respectful terms that quickly garnered public interest.

“Today I’ll tell you something I don’t really talk about, but I’ll talk today. I love my mum, I love my dad, my god is my mum, my father is my god,”

he remarked.

He later emphasized this idea in the comment section, suggesting that the reverence typically directed toward a higher deity should instead be focused on one’s parents.

He also mentioned, “I don’t believe in inferior Gods,” a comment that further prompted debate as it seemed to dismiss the worship of other spiritual entities in favor of a belief system centered on honoring parents.

His remarks have elicited a variety of reactions on social media, with many users questioning his position while others viewed it as a symbolic expression of gratitude and deep respect for his upbringing.

This discussion follows 9ice’s earlier revelation that he has practiced as a Babalawo for 18 years, a statement that already positioned him at the forefront of public dialogues surrounding spirituality and traditional religion in Nigeria.
