Why Ayuba abandoned Islam for Christianity

Legit.ng recalls a report from a while back about Mr Bonsue, where he shared his reason for dumping his childhood religion, Islam, for Christianity.

Most Fuji musicians in Nigeria are Muslims, largely because the genre is an offshoot of the Arabic religion.

Fuji music emanated from 'Were,' another music genre popularly played during the Ramadan period in those days.
