Nigeria\u2019s latest hitmaker, Spyro has open up about his relationship with religion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The singer in a recent podcast show spoke about his upbringing and growing up in the Mushin area of Lagos and also opened up about his experience as a pastor\u2019s son, stressing that he \u201chated God\u201d because of his father.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy father was quite strict and he\u2019s a pastor so you know the way pastors are with their kids. They\u2019re really strict because they have this\u201c, he said.<\/p>\n

Spyro admitted that the pressure was intense, leading to a dislike for religion during his early years.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe pressure is not good, I must say. But I didn\u2019t even know God through my dad, even though I was right in front of the Bible.<\/p>\n

Every morning we\u2019d wake up to the Bible, I was forced to do it so I didn\u2019t know who God was. In fact, my dad made me hate God, the personality of God,\u201d he added<\/p>\n
