The secret society Illuminati has become a subject of discussion on social media following a public confession by singer Seyi Shay, whose real name is Oluwaseyi Joshua.

While there have been rumours about some Nigerian celebrities being a part of the Illuminati in the past, Seyi Shay openly admitted she was once a member of the secret society.

In a candid statement, Seyi Shay, who was a guest on the OffAir podcast, spoke about her alleged past ties to the controversial secret society.

“That’s when I was in the Illuminati. That’s when I joined the Illuminati. That’s when it was official. Do you understand? I was an Illuminati member,” she said.

According to Seyi Shay, people in the entertainment industry were aware of those who were involved but often pretended not to remember.

“People know who they are because, and maybe if they watch this, they probably won’t remember, you know, because people that do messed up stuff always forget. It’s not the fans, guys. It’s the people in the industry. It is not the fans. It is the people that work with me, work with her, work with this one, work with that one,” Seyi Shay added.

Why Seyi Shay dumped church

Legit.ng also reported that Seyi Shay condemned some churches' preference for old hymns in comparison to new age gospel songs.

She recounted how she stopped going to a particular church because the pastor called for an end to the singing of new age gospel songs, while noting that old hymns were better and were a direct scripture.

Seyi Shay stated that she doesn’t understand why a person would feel blessed singing songs that were written by slave owners who forced their slaves to sing them and pass them down to generations.
