I'm No Longer A Christian - Falz Clarifies Tweet On 'Fornication Is Not A Sin'

‎Nigerian rapper, Folarin Falana, popularly known as Falz, has reiterated that fornication is not a sin.

‎ ‎Recall that Falz sparked controversy on X (formerly known as Twitter), following his tweet that "Fornication is not a Sin', which led many Christians and Muslims to criticize the singer's take, and counter it with scriptures.

‎ ‎Clarifying his stance, Falz stated that his insistence that fornication is not a sin is embedded in his religion, which is not Christianity, but a religion called "love."

‎ ‎Speaking during a recent interview with Arise TV, the singer singer questioned why people could not engage in premarital intercourse, which is a decision agreed to by both parties.

‎ ‎Falz said: ‎“I think people would read the tweet and just assume that I meant according to Christianity.

‎ ‎“I wasn’t really speaking from that perspective. I practice the religion of love. Under that religion, I don’t think fornication is a sin.

‎ ‎“Because I looked at it, I strictly addressed the issue: Why are we not allowed to engage in this premarital intercourse? What is the issue? Who does it offend?

‎ ‎“These are not married people. These are two unmarried people. Willingly. Consensually. Personally, I don’t think there is a problem there.

‎ ‎I’m no longer a Christian. I practice religion of love.”
