“Church Has Become a Joke… You Need to Be a Hidden Bisexual and Join a Cartel to Be Seen as a Real Man of God” — Emmanuel Okose
Nigerian cleric Emmanuel Okose has stirred reactions online following strong criticism of what he describes as troubling trends within modern church leadership.
In a post shared on his Instagram page on March 27, Okose alleged that acceptance in some religious circles is influenced by belonging to closed groups and undisclosed affiliations, rather than spiritual calling or integrity.
He argued that those who refuse to align with such networks are often not regarded as genuine ministers, raising concerns about credibility and accountability within the system.
Okose also questioned the spiritual state of the church, suggesting a decline in standards and calling for a return to deeper accountability. Despite his criticism, he maintained that the church would ultimately endure, citing biblical assurance of its resilience.
The statement has since sparked widespread conversation online, with mixed reactions from the public over both his claims and the broader issues he raised.
