Spyro Criticizes Nigerian Pastors Over Silence on Rising Insecurity
Nigerian singer Spyro has intensified his criticism of religious leaders across the country, calling out pastors and clerics who have remained silent amid Nigeria’s worsening insecurity.
In a strongly worded statement, the singer argued that any pastor who fails to speak up about the current situation is indirectly supporting oppression. He stressed that religious leaders have a responsibility to their congregations, many of whom are directly affected by the growing wave of violence and kidnappings.
“Every pastor in Nigeria, if you’re not speaking up right now over the high rate of ins_curity in the country, it means you are part of the system and an øppr€ssor. As a pastor, you’re responsible to your members because they attend your churches, so you need to speak up. Yes, the government is the problem, but I have every right to hold the church accountable. Imagine what those kidn@pp£d school children & teachers in Oyo State are passing through.” He said
