Popular Nollywood Actress and Business woman, Liz Anjorin, has debunk the claims going viral that she converted to Islam because of a man.
While speaking in an interview on Sunday Scoop last week, the Actress made a compelling argument for her new faith saying
“If I changed to Islam because of a man, why am I still single? People just like to say all sorts, but I’m not bothered anyway. This is my second time of going to Mecca after my conversion; I went first in 2013. My name remains Liz Anjorin, but I adopted the Muslim name, Aishat, and that’s all. My father was a Christian, while my mother was a Muslim. I only decided to follow my mother’s path.”
The actress also explained how her new Religion, had impacted her mode of dressing
“I’m a private person and people don’t know much about me. If you check my Instagram page, you would see that my mode of dressing has changed. But as a celebrity and entertainer, I can wear anything to showcase my talent, which is work-related. I don’t need to write it on my forehead that I’m a Muslim.” She added.
It is common place for women who accept Islam to be stigmatized with the tag of wanting a husband. A discrimination which does not seem to bother the career feminists and warriors for women’s right.
