A Nigerian pastor has come under criticism after a viral video showed church members allegedly being forced to sing President Tinubu’s mandate song during service.
The incident has sparked debate online over the role of politics in religious gatherings.
Many social media users criticized the incident, arguing that religious gatherings should remain separate from politics, while others defended the pastor’s actions, saying clerics are also entitled to political opinions.
One user wrote:
“Church is supposed to be for worship, not political campaigns.”
Another commenter added:
“Why force people to sing political songs in church? Everyone has the right to support whoever they want.”
Others, however, claimed there was nothing wrong with praying or singing in support of the country’s leadership.
The video has continued to trend across social media platforms, reigniting conversations about the growing intersection between religion and politics in Nigeria.
