Evangelist
Patricia Temitope Alabi was born on 27th October 1970 to the family of
Pa Joseph Akinleye Obayomi and Madam Agnes Kehinde Obayomi. The only
daughter out of the three children in the family was born in Lagos
state, but her state of origin is Yewa, Imeko, in Ogun state.
A household name in the Nigerian Gospel music industry, she is a Nigerian gospel singer, film music composer, and actress.
She
remembered her mother’s love for singing to herself always, even though
she was not a professional singer or choir member. Tope said that her
mother wanted her to become a reverend sister early because of a vision
she had about her daughter being God’s. she later realized this is not
what was meant by these words, and never tried to put her daughter in
the assembly.
Soji and Tope have been involved in business together and according to them, they had never quarreled over business issues. We can say the two have a better understanding of business and family life. The union is blessed with two children – Minister Mary Ayomiku Alabi and Deborah Alabi.
She acquired her elementary and secondary education from Oba Akinyele Memorial High School, Ibadan in the year 1986 where she obtained her WAEC certificate. Thereafter, she went ahead in her study at the Polytechnic Ibadan where she obtained a degree in Mass Communication in 1990.
Tope’s passion for music and drama led her to join the group called “Jester International” in Ibadan between 982 and 1984. She got her initial training and experience in drama at the group. Between 1990 & 1991, she worked with the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) Ibadan as a correspondent under the tutelage of Mr. Yanju Adegbite.
It is worth noting that Patricia Tope Alabi is the pacesetter of the soundtrack in the Yoruba Home Video Industry.
She has many albums to her name. Her first album came out in 2001 and was called “Ore ti O Common”. She released another one four years later titled “Agbara Re Ni”. She always moves around with a pen and jotter because God often sends her ideas for the new songs.
