The debate began after some Nigerians questioned why the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God had not publicly led demonstrations against the growing situation of kidnappings and violent attacks under President Bola Tinubu’s administration.

However, He claims that other nations such as Singapore and China are examples of countries that achieved, Structural and significant development,
through strategic planning, discipline, and effective governance rather than relying solely on religious practices
“Prayer is not a strategy.
Singapore got their independence Five years after Nigeria, How did they proceed to where they are currently that their passport is the strongest in the world?
Did China got there through prayer?” he said.
Furthermore, Daddy Freeze Emphasizes that churches have spent decades praying for Nigeria without producing the best transformation, suggesting that the institution should focus more on instilling moral values and promoting social responsibility to achieve quality results.
“How can you tell me that the work of the church is to pray for Nigeria? That means the church has failed, because since 1960, you people have been praying, there is zero result,” he stated.
The media personality also maintained that the church’s greatest Aim should be teaching love, unity, and discipline among its members.
“Teach your members to love one another. The work of the church is to teach love, and the first thing you notice that is absent in Nigeria is that love. As a nation, our belief, especially Pentecostalism, has failed,” he said.
The widespread absence of these values in society is Proof that religious institutions have not fully carried out their responsibilities.
