Folarin Falana, the Nigerian rapper better known as Falz, has come under fire after claiming that fornication is not a sin.
The 34-year-old actor took to X (formerly Twitter) on Sunday to share the controversial assertion, which directly contradicts religious teachings
His tweet went viral, drawing strong reactions from social media users, particularly within religious circles.
Many Christians and conservative voices condemned Falz’s stance, citing biblical scriptures that classify fornication — sexual relations outside marriage — as “immoral”.
Critics accused the rapper of promoting “ungodly values,” with some questioning his “moral integrity”.
Below are some reactions on X.
The post comes a few days after the rapper opened up about his struggles with love and commitment.
The artiste said he is still single because he hasn’t found anybody who “likes me”. He also admitted he has never told anyone “I love you” in a romantic sense, although he has expressed strong feelings of affection.
Born Folarin Falana, Falz has established himself as a household name in Nigerian music since his career began in 2009.
He is known for songs which are often targeted at addressing bad governance and societal ills, including ‘Child of the World’ and ‘Talk’.
Aside from being a rapper, Falz has also featured in several movies.
He made his movie debut in ‘Couple of Days’ (2016).
The singer’s versatility has won him several awards including ‘Album of the Year’ at the 2016 edition of the City People Entertainment.
