“Right from time, I don’t like going to Mosque” – Khaid speaks on why he converted from Islam to Christianity
Fast-rising Nigerian singer, Sulaimon Shekoni Solomon, popularly known by his stage name, Khaid, has spoken on his conversion from Islam to Christianity.
The singer made this known in a recent interview that though he was born to a Muslim father and a Christian mother, he felt more connection to Christianity than the former.
Khaid, flashed back to how his father used to force him to go to the mosque at this tender age. According to him, he attended the mosque while growing up just to please his dad and save him from what the neighbourhood would say about his child becoming a Christian since he (the father) is a Muslim.
“I was a Muslim before because my dad was a Muslim and my mum was a Christian. So, I just felt the connection to Christianity more.
“Right from the time I didn’t like going to the mosque, actually. My dad forced me. But my parents were free-minded people.
“They told my siblings and me that we can choose any religion we want. But we live among Muslims, and my dad doesn’t want it to seem like he doesn’t have control over his children, so he used to force me to go to the mosque,” Khaid disclosed in a recent episode of the Zero Conditions podcast.
He added: “At that time I was trying to please him so I was going to mosque. But after some time, I switched and started going to church.
“My elder sister and younger brother are Muslims. But me and the rest of the five are Christians.”

“I am a shining example of no weapon fashioned against you shall prosper (Isiah 54:17). You know, with the trials I had to face, if anyone had told me that I would see 2025, I would have called the person a blatant liar.
I remember in one of my most humbling reflections, I asked God “Why me?” and he replied “Why not me?? You are one of my bravest soldiers and I will not burden you with what I know you can’t handle. This reminded me that in our greatest times of testing and affliction. God is setting us up for the greatest display of his power and deliverance.
However, I digress. It’s my birthday, and a new beginning has manifested. To everyone who held my hands, wiped my tears, and cried with me (yep, I have some very dramatic people in my life ). I THANK YOU. I have such an amazing support system that I thank the almighty God for every single day (well, most times when they are not being annoying. I am digressing again, sorry.
