According to the actress, who now bears the name, Aisha, she converted to Islam because of her late mother. “No man can make me convert to Islam. I converted to Islam because of my late mum. Something happened the day she passed on. I wouldn’t disclose that here. So, I went to Mecca to pray on her behalf,”she said. Describing life after her trip to Mecca as beautiful, Liz revealed that for the past eighteen years, she has never gone to any church to worship. “I have been a Muslim for long time now. You can never spot me in any social function wearing suggestive clothes.”
