Yemi Osinbajo and Muslim controversy

While congratulating the couple, Daddy Freeze pointed out that Bakare’s name appears to be a Muslim one.

Daddy Freeze: “REDEEMED PASTOR OSHINBAJO’S DAUGHTER SET TO MARRY... I congratulate them and sincerely wish them well as they look really happy and in love!

“His name seems Muslim… If it’s normal church rats that want to marry Muslims, they won’t agree o… The will go as far as saying “Allah is not God” and say “let’s not be unequally yoked”. But with the political pedigree involved here, I’m sure even the GO and his Mummy will attend.”
