I Once Considered Converting To Islam – Omah Lay

Famous singer Stanley Omah Didia, aka Omah Lay has opened up that he once thought of converting to Islam.

According to him, he contemplated converting to Islam at some point despite being born into a Christian home.

Omah Lay further stated that he doesn’t care about religion anymore.

He, however, said he believes in the existence of God.

Speaking in a recent interview with media personality Wunmi Bello, Omah Lay said, “As soon as I made money, I just switched; I just believed in God and became more human than religious. I don’t just enjoy religion anymore.

“I grew up in a Christian home. I spent a lot of time in church. And at some point, I was going to convert to Islam. But now I’m at the point where it’s just me and God. Not religion. Because I really don’t know anything about religion. That’s the problem. These holy books and what everybody is saying, I know it sounds true but these are just books that I can not find evidence that this was written by God or his servants.

“So, I just feel like I don’t know anything in as much as I know the bible, Jesus and Allah. But at the end, I don’t have evidence. The only evidence I have is that there’s a God who is moving me. I know that there must be something that’s somewhere that’s in charge of this whole thing. I believe it’s God.”

Senegalese Footballer, Saido Mane Buys Football Club in France

Senegal and Al Nassr star Sadio Mane is now a bonafide football club owner.
This comes after he bought a football club in France, joining the likes of David Beckham, Gary Neville and Paul Scholes.
According to ESPN, Mane bought French fourth division club Bourges Foot 18.
Mane has been looking to purchase a football club for some time and his relationship with Bourges Foot 18 president Cheikh Sylla has been key in him securing the deal.

But he’s now fully involved after receiving the approval of the mayor of the city, Yann Galut.
Following the completion of the deal Mane posted a video message in which he said: “We’ve been working with the city for the past three years. We’re here to nurture and organise the club. The challenge is immense, but if the people of Bourges remain involved, I’m confident we can achieve our goals. I believe I’ll be visiting Bourges very soon.”
The club are located 250 kilometres from Paris in central France, but they’ve never played higher than the French second tier (as Bourges 18).
The club currently sit second bottom in Group B of the Championnat National. They were only formed two years ago following a merger between two clubs in the region.
It also boasts teams like Cannes, who have endured a steep decline since giving French great Zinedine Zidane his professional debut.
Mane joined Al Nassr after struggling at Bundesliga giants Bayern Munich.
He had a memorable spell at Liverpool where he won the Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, Champions League, UEFA Super Cup and FIFA Club World Cup.
