Singer Habeeb Okikiola Badmus, popularly known as Portable, has berated Nigerian pastors over their continuous silence in the face of the alleged Christian genocide in the country.
Newsunplug reports that a fresh attack on Christians on Palm Sunday in Jos, Plateau State, by suspected jihadist militia has sparked renewed outrage over alleged Christian genocide in Nigeria, an allegations the Federal Government had debunked.
Reacting to the recent attack in Jos, Portable accused Nigerian pastors of being hypocrites, claiming that they use bulletproof vehicles for their own safety but couldn’t speak up when their members are being killed by terrorists.
He said he can’t fathom why Nigerian pastors are not leading protests despite the constant killing of Christians by suspected Islamic terrorists.
The Zazu crooner claimed that Islamic clerics won’t be as mum as Nigerian pastors if Muslims were being attacked in the same manner.
Speaking in a mix of Yoruba and Pidgin in a video broadcast, Portable said: “Why are Nigerian pastors not fighting for Christians? They use bulletproof cars yet their followers are dying. Why can’t pastors lead protest to the Aso rock? You can’t harm a Muslim and there won’t be chaos. If you kill a traditionalist, there will be crisis. But if you kill a Christian, the pastor will look away and being enjoying in his car.”
