PAUL ADEFARASIN – COWARDICE ON THE PULPIT

This handsome man sha like to talk. The man likes to hear the sound of his voice, and I do not blame him. If you see the kinds of beautiful girls in that church, you sef will be talking with an American accent o. Me, I went to that church one day to go see a movie premiere. These girls are neat o. They don’t look Nigerian; they all look like those people we use to see in snoop dog video wallowing on the beach.

They will all just sit down there, cross their legs and be admiring pastor whose words they all take with equanimity. Whether they understand it or not, it is not their problem o. Their own is that they have worn cloth and have come to church. So, the risk of grandstanding and playing to the gallery is all so prevalent. Pastor will just jump up and be talking all sorts, including crap, and the people will be clapping and be saying, ‘kai, this our pastor can speak English o. Mbok, what is plan B for a leader? To run away? Did Martin Luther King do plan B when he was fighting for Civil Rights? Didn’t he lose his life? Should I call more? Desmond Tutu, Mathew Kukah, the catholic priests who lost their lives in the genocidal wars in Rwanda, too many to mention.

It is not to be looking like a Hollywood star and be doing plan B. Mbok, I am very sorry I didn’t mention this when it first came out, my Afang woman had just passed, and I was sad. But now I am back, and the more I am looking at this video, the more bad belle is catching me. Paul, why not mobilize your youths, use your incredible gift of the garb and seek a position and begin to change the system instead of planning to run away? That is cowardice, and if I were a member of your church, that would be the end of my tithing. I will just be coming to take a picture and greet the fine girls. My brother, this thing no be psychedelic life o, this is Nigeria. We need serious people to help turn it around. Thank you.
