Anointed gospel minister and songwriter Bola Ayanfe has officially released her long-awaited single, “Mayowo,” featuring two renowned gospel artists — Adeyinka Alaseyori and Shola Adeshina.
Titled after the Yoruba phrase meaning “Lord, don’t take Your hand away from my life,” “Mayowo” is a powerful song of surrender, gratitude, and total dependence on God. It reflects a deep yearning for divine presence and celebrates the unfailing mercy of God in every season of life.
With soul-stirring vocals, rich harmonies, and spiritually charged instrumentation, Bola Ayanfe, Adeyinka Alaseyori, and Shola Adeshina deliver a worship experience that exudes grace, power, and anointing. Their musical synergy creates a heartfelt atmosphere that draws listeners closer to God.
According to Bola Ayanfe, “Mayowo” was inspired by moments of reflection and gratitude — a testimony of God’s unrelenting mercy and steadfast love, even in difficult times.
“Mayowo” is now available on all major digital streaming platforms and can also be viewed on Bola Ayanfe’s official YouTube channel.
