Nigerians slam church for inviting Pasuma, Portable to praise night

A branch of the Celestial Church of Christ in Lagos State has come under heavy criticism for inviting Fuji singer, Pasuma, and controversial musician, Portable, to its praise night event.

This was after the flyer for the event was posted on the church’s Facebook page on Wednesday, November 29, 2023.

The event has been slated for December 15.

Taking to the comment session, scores of Facebook users lashed out at the church for inviting secular singers to the praise night event.

One of the users, Bolanle Bamidele Adewuyi, stated: “This is disheartening… Is this what you turn the Church of God to? It’s hilarious.”

Edafe Oghenebrume said: “This is a sacrilege in the Celestial Church of Christ. It is disheartening, pathetic, shameful and disgraceful. I wonder about the spiritual orientation of your Shepherd-In-Charge and the congregation.”

Festus Olanrewaji Ojo wrote: “This is a shame! Shame and a very big shame.”

“There is nothing they will not turn celestial church to,” Becky Wunmi Hassan Ayoade noted.

Another user, Ayo Ife, stated: “The artists are not complete yet Una for kuku add Naira Marley so that the soul winning can be complete!”

Some Facebook users, however, declared their readiness to attend the event.

“I will surely be there,” Abike Ade wrote.

Abike Garment noted: “I must be there make I come dance away my sorrow.”
