Singer Rema speaks on satanic allegations by concert attendees

Nigerian Afrobeat star, Rema




Singer, Divine Ikubor, popularly known as Rema, has addressed allegations that he is a member of satanic/Illuminati.

According to attendees, the symbols he used while performing on stage at his headline concert at Londons 02 Arena, on November 14, depict that he belongs to a satanic crew.

Recall that Rema sold out the 20,000-capacity 02 Arena on Tuesday, joining Wizkid, Davido, Burna Boy, and Asake as the only Africans to sell out the worlds busiest music arena.

However, reacting via his X (formerly Twitter) handle, the Edo-born superstar explained that the artificial horse he rode on stage with was a replica of a Benin artifact, and the mask he wore was a replica of the famous Queen Idia mask.

The artificial bat he rode on stage during his second appearance was said to be a homage to the bats that dot the Edo night sky.

Sharing a clip from his controversial concert, Rema wrote: RAVAGE UPRISING/ My Ancestors bronzes sit in the museum of this very city, so I remade mine. Hence, Edo is redefined, the map reshaped, your minds awakened & the mask reborn. Thank you, London!

Meanwhile, Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has congratulated Rema on his sold-out concert at Londons 02 Arena.

He said the people of the state are proud of Rema, especially his personification of the Edo heritage.

On his X handle, Obaseki wrote: We are indeed proud of the enigma of @heisrema and what he has come to represent, especially his personification of the Edo heritage. We applaud his genius and celebrate him as he takes the world stage by storm. (The Nation)
