Popular Nigerian rapper and On Air Personality N6 has sparked concern in the entertainment industry after publicly revealing that he has added popular skit maker Broda Shaggi to his daily prayer list.

N6, whose real name is Oluwapelumi Orungbe, took to his Twitter page to share his observations and call for collective prayers.
“I have added Brother Shaggi to my Daily Prayer List. And I will be begging all of us to do the Same. I don’t know what’s wrong with him, but his latest posts and Captions on IG have been very Scary & Depressing. I pray Heaven comes Tru for him Mightily In this Time Of Need.”
The trigger for N6’s concern is a deeply emotional and cryptic message Broda Shaggi shared on his Instagram page. In the post, the skit maker and actor, whose real name is Samuel Animashaun Perry, poured out his heart in a raw prayer to God.
“Dear God, God, I’m still holding on because You asked me to trust You. Even when I don’t understand it all, I know You allowed this for a reason. So I’m still trusting, still believing, still waiting on You. You have never failed me and I know You never will.”
The post, which has drawn significant attention, left many fans interpreting it as a sign that the comedian may be going through a difficult personal challenge, though he did not provide specific details.
