Gospel act, Dare Melody denies dating Lagos socialite

In from Ahmed Boulor . . .

Sensational gospel singer, Dare Odunuga popularly known as Dare Melody has refuted claims by a soft-sell magazine that he is dating a Lagos-based society woman.

The said publication also claimed that the woman in question donated a Hummer Jeep to Melody’s band.

Reacting to the report weeks after it made the rounds, the gospel artiste said the claims are the handiwork of his detractors who are hell bent on soiling his name.

”Every sincere gospel artiste relies on God and his fans. I will never sacrifice my paradise for a five minutes enjoyment outside my marriage.” He said.

The gospel singer also noted that it is his desire to follow the path of his mentors by delivering uncompromising messages through his songs.

“My mentors Daddy Adeboye, Daddy Ayewa, Daddy Kalejaye, Pastor Matthew Asimolowo among others have never been caught in such an act. I will never betray my oath before my creator.

“I seize this medium to say that I am happily married and my wife knows 90 per cent of my clients.’’ He added.
