Popular Afro Juju musician, Sir Shina Peters, has been ordained a Bishop in a Cherubim and Seraphim Church, Lagos.  

The singer shared a video and photo of his ordination on his Instagram handle on Sunday.

 He wrote, ‘‘Bishop with the swagger. God above all,” while it was also written on his Facebook page: “To God be the glory. I will serve my God till the end.’’

Dele Momodu, Ovation International magazine publisher greeted the newly ordained Bishop, saying ‘‘Congratulations Bishop Isaac Oluwashina Akanbi Peters. Ore mi pataki pataki. A ti ko esu ati gbogbo ise buruku owo re sile (My very very dear friend. We have rejected the devil and all his evil works).”

The singer’s most recent music was in collaboration with Teni on her hit, ‘Jo’, released in December 2020.

SSP, as he is fondly called, released his debut album as a solo musician, Ace (Afro-Juju Series 1), in 1989.

The album went double platinum and was the career breakthrough that made him a household name in the music industry.

‘Shinamania’ produced by Laolu Akins was released in 1991, winning three awards at once with a Platinum Disc for selling more than 250,000 copies.

SSP currently has 16 album to his credit.
