Popular Nigerian musician, Divine Ikubor, popularly called Rema has addressed “demonic” mask allegations, calling it a remake of the bronzes of his ancestors.
The young artist has been dragged after his show at the 02 arena in London where some fans accused him of being a member of the Illuminati.
A well-informed fan from Benin City has defended Rema, claiming the mask was that of Queen Idia, a National hero of the Benin Kingdom.
Today, Rema has come out to clear the air and address the controversy surrounding the mask he wore for his entrance at the 02.
According to him, it is a remake of the bronze of his ancestors, some of which are still present in the London museum.
In doing so, Rema believes he has redefined Edo state and put it on the global map.
In his words;
“RAVAGE UPRISING/ My Ancestors bronzes sit in the museum of this very city so I remade mine. Hence, Edo is redefined, the map reshaped, your minds awakened & the mask reborn. Thank you London! 🦇🇬🇧”
