Why My Pastor Opposed Video for My Song with Burna Boy – Singer Waje Reveals
Aituaje Iruobe, known professionally as Waje, made her debut with the studio album W.A.J.E in 2013, which features her most provocative track to date, Grind.
Her collaboration with artist Damini Ogulu, widely recognized as Burna Boy, on the song Grind has garnered significant appreciation; however, it lacks a corresponding music video.
In a recent interview, Waje revealed that her pastor was against the idea of producing a music video for her collaboration with Burna Boy.
She explained that her spiritual mentor elaborated on various elements of the song, which she personally acknowledged, leading her to decide against creating a video.
Waje, whose daughter recently completed her university education, emphasized that as a Christian, she adheres to certain principles and refrains from engaging with sensual music. She articulated her perspective as follows:
“2013 was one of the most pivotal years in my career, marked by numerous significant developments. However, there were many songs I chose not to pursue due to my faith.
Do you understand? The collaboration with Burna Boy, titled ‘Grind,’ did not result in a video. At the time my album was released, I had a discussion with my spiritual leader, Pastor Tony, who clarified his reasons to me. My understanding is that there are three categories.
The first is the gospel category, where artists uplift churchgoers. These are gospel musicians reaching out to their congregations.
Next is the conscious category, which includes individuals who are also believers but create love songs, recognizing that even as Christians, one does not express wedding vows in archaic language. Instead, one articulates genuine emotions for their beloved.
I identify with this category, alongside artists like Johnny Drille and Timi Dakolo. Our mission extends beyond just Christians; we aim to provide clean music for anyone seeking it. Lastly, there exists the sensual category.

Coroner’s Court Warns Naira Marley and Sam Larry of Subpoena for Missing Witnesses’ Hearing
The Coroner’s Court in Ikorodu, Lagos, has warned Naira Marley and Sam Larry, among other witnesses, to attend the ongoing investigation into Mohbad’s death or face subpoenas. Following a request from Mohbad’s father for more witnesses, the court has permitted alternative service.
The hearing, which saw only one key witness present, has been rescheduled to September 30, with subpoenas to be issued if witnesses fail to appear.
At the latest court session, only Boluwatife Adeyemo (Darosha) appeared as a witness. The hearing has been rescheduled to September 30, with the magistrate warning that subpoenas will be issued if other witnesses, including Naira Marley and Sam Larry, fail to attend.
Mohbad’s family has expressed frustration with the police investigation, criticizing their reliance on witness accounts and lack of support for an independent autopsy and toxicology tests. They have called for the removal of officers involved due to alleged mishandling, but the Police Service Commission has yet to respond.
Mohbad, who died on September 12, 2023, at 27, has been at the center of controversy, leading to the arrest of his former record label owner, Naira Marley, among others. The Lagos State Police have formed a special team for the investigation and conducted an autopsy after exhuming his body.
