VeryDarkMan (VDM), a social media commentator, has publicly challenged prominent Nigerian Christian leaders including Pastor E.A. Adeboye, Bishop David Oyedepo, and others for their silence on the alleged killings of Christians in Nigeria.
VDM criticized these influential pastors for not using their influence to pressure President Bola Tinubu’s administration to address the insecurity and killings.
He highlighted that these pastors remain silent because President Tinubu is “their brother,” contrasting this with Pastor Adeboye’s activism during former President Goodluck Jonathan’s administration.
VDM also accused them of preferring to call for prayers rather than taking meaningful actions to push for change.
This challenge by VDM gained traction as it followed the U.S. President Donald Trump’s threat to deploy American troops to Nigeria over the alleged Christian killings, which had attracted global attention.
VDM urged these Christian leaders to speak up and act decisively, noting that their lack of vocal opposition was notable amid rising insecurity.
The reactions from social media users varied, with some backing VDM’s point that influential religious leaders need to do more, while others discussed the issues of tribalism and politicization of religion in Nigeria.
In summary, VDM is directly calling out top Nigerian pastors for their perceived silence and inaction regarding the killings of Christians in Nigeria, questioning their motivations and urging them to use their influence to bring about political pressure and change.
