DJ Switch accused the cleric of continuously calling for prayers for the country but never addressing the fundamental reasons of the country’s problems on the microblogging site X. She emphasized that even Jesus Christ condemned corruption during his lifetime.
She tweeted,
“Pastor Adeboye constantly urging Nigerians to pray for Nigeria… but rarely calls out the cause of Nigeria’s woes! Rarely calls them out for a failure to serve. The Jesus you worship served and called out corruption point blank! Some of una go say touch not my anointed! Anointing wey no dey anoint.”
Some of the renowned clergyman’s followers were outraged by this. In response to one of her opponents, DJ Switch stressed that she does not expect Pastor Adeboye to condemn Nigeria, but rather to address those responsible for the country’s stagnation.
She wrote in a follow-up tweet,
“I expect him to curse the people that have plunged Nigeria into the deep poverty, corruption, lawlessness, backwardness, thuggery, terrorism and suffering many Nigerians are experiencing but because your brain is the size of a lint, I understand that you can only think in strands. Maybe spend some time, do some light reading to better to enhance your cognitive skills… only then can you begin to grasp the concept that a knife can either be a tool or a weapon! It all depends on who’s handling it. Happy dependence day!”
