During the listening party of his anticipated album “Moral Instruction” his parents Femi and Funmi Falana where among the guest.
Falz mother used the opportunity to complained about her son not attending church service, holding the microphone she said:
“Folarin, you don’t go to church and I am bothered. I hope you would start going to church this year.”
In an interview with Saturday beat, Falz said, his mum was right because he hardly goes to church
“I have nothing against the church or going to church; everyone has the right to practise the religion they desire but personally, as a Christian, it has been a while that I have been to church. It does not make me less of a Christian.
“The most important thing is spirituality and your personal connection with God. The reason I haven’t attended a church service in a long while is because I went to a few churches and during sermons, I was put under undue pressure.
“There was a time that a pastor called me to the altar just to acknowledge my presence for being in church. In my mind, I felt that the service was not about me. I felt that everybody was there to worship God, yet they were putting undue pressure on me.
“The pastor gave me the microphone to address the congregation and I was puzzled; what did he expect me to say to the congregation? These are some of the issues. I just want to go to church and worship God like a regular member of the congregation. I do not want that kind of attention.
“I was hoping that I would go to church on a Sunday and it would not be like any other day I’m at a public place or doing a show,” he said.
