Nollywood actress and politician, Tonto Dikeh, has criticized Pastor Tunde Bakare for his comments regarding the late singer, Mohbad.
In his sermon on Sunday, September 24, Pastor Bakare had implied that Mohbad associated with unsavory individuals during his life, leading to his early demise. He mentioned, “How many of you know MohBad? The Nigerian artiste who died at 27? MohBad. When he was drinking and smoking and associating with evil men, he does not know that the harvest will come so soon and that he will soon be cut down at the prime of youth. I am not blaming him, I am just telling you. Is MohBad a good name? Moh Bad.”
Tonto Dikeh responded by urging the clergyman to focus on preaching the gospel and refrain from mentioning Mohbad’s name in his message. She expressed her disapproval and questioned why Pastor Bakare remained silent when his colleagues were involved in questionable activities.
She wrote, “Dear Pastor Tunde @thetbakareiknow, when your colleagues are caught with their pants down in unholy sexual activities, we never hear your voice, you never speak nor preach about them. It comes to the death of a boy who is old enough to be your last born and you say ‘HE REAPED THE REWARD OF HIS ACTIONS. What Actions? Please, please, please KEEP THE SAME ENERGY with your corrupted Colleagues as you just did today. It’s the anointing of God upon your head that’s making me not go off on this LOOSE COMMENT OF YOURS. I have learnt over the years that if you have nothing nice to say, Keep mute (DONT TALK AT ALL). Preach your gospel and leave Mohbad’s name out of your ministration. I don’t respect old age, I respect the wisdom you exhibit at old age.”
