Following the success of the event, the actress was interviewed, during which she confirmed her conversion to Islam.
In the video, the actress urged Nigerians to address her as Hajia Meenah Mercy Adeoti.
“Insha Allah, My new name is Hajia Meenah Mercy Adeoti. Meenah with the H. I’m so so so excited. I feel fulfilled actually. This is actually my first Ramadan lecture and then Ramadan is one of the pillars of Islam. It’s like gathering people and letting them be aware of what Allah says, so that we can follow the rules that Allah has set. So I’m so happy that people that we called came here,” she said in parts of the video.
