A dispute erupted inside a commercial bus between a traditionalist and a Christian preacher over religious differences. A video shared by Brian Jonah Dennis on Facebook showed the traditionalist recording and engaging the preacher, who was delivering a sermon to passengers.
The traditionalist accused the preacher of demeaning African traditional religion and culture. Refusing to remain silent, he began singing Fela Anikulapo Kuti’s “Yellow Fever” loudly, interrupting the sermon amidst passenger reactions.
In Pidgin English, he explained, “My people make una see me o. I dey inside danfo dey go Lagos Island. This man dey preach, I no talk. But he is preaching against my tradition and my culture, and me I no gree with am. So, as he dey disturb me so, even me myself dey sing my African spirituality music.”
The confrontation intensified when the preacher claimed to have destroyed the traditionalist’s idol. The traditionalist retaliated by criticizing Christianity as a colonial tool and questioning its effectiveness in conflict zones, stating, “Go tell them for Iran and Isrealite where dem dey kpai them. What about those in Benue State? Go and cover them with the Blood of Jesus there.”
