A Nigerian clergyman Rev. Fr. Oluoma, claims that churches have turned worship into entertainment.
During a recent sermon in his church, the clergyman stated this.
Fr. Oluoma stated during the sermon that gospel musicians get paid millions merely to deliver a 10-minute worship service in churches.
He explained that Mercy Chinwo, a well-known Nigerian gospel singer, might demand up to N10 million to sing in churches.
He said;
“We have made religious worship expensive. If I have to bring Mercy Chinwo here to sing, how much will I have to pay? How much do you think she will charge? 10 million naira. Then I will have to collect the money from church members to pay her.
These are the tragedies we have brought into the church. An artist will come to the church to minister for 10 million or 5 million, and that’s too much. I’m not against paying her; you must pay her because you invited her.”
