Controversial Nigerian entertainer, Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa, popularly called Charlyboy has waded into the much debated counsel by the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Pastor E.A Adeboye to young men and women concerning marriage.
The Areafada who took to his twitter handle @Areafada1 to counter the claims made by Pastor Adeboye, said it was wrong for Adeboye to begin to judge others as many look up to him.
It would be recalled that Pastor Adeboye in a message to young men and women said: “Marry a prayer warrior! Don’t marry any girl who cannot pray for one hour non-stop. Don’t marry a girl who is lazy! If she is lazy when she is single, what will happen if she is married?”
His advice to women was: “Don’t marry a man who has no job. Before God gave Adam Eve, he gave him a job. He said, ‘This is the garden, keep it.’ So when anybody comes to you and say, ‘Sister, thus saith the Lord, you are going to be the star in my firmament,’ ask him — ‘What is your job?’”
Reacting to this, Charlyboy said, “I suspect that the good pastors yarns tells me that he is a man suspended in time, between old and new school.
“Don’t get it twisted, I flow with his definition of a good woman.
“From his statement I see that the obvious way to his heart is through his stomach and of cause through prayers. Good, No wahala.
“However our amiable pastor rubs it in when he starts to yarn Akpata, “Marry a warrior, if a girl cannot pray for one hour, don’t marry her. Don’t marry a girl who is lazy, who cannot cook. She needs to know how to do chores and cook because you cannot afford to eat out at all times.
“Are you Serious?
“So if my wife to be can’t rant, chant, shout and generally carry on as a prayer warrior, praying for a whole hour, the woman doesn’t deserve a wife status. Abi?
“Oga pastor, that one na missyarn. Over praying does not make one a better husband or wife, because the world especially Naija is filled with Fake people and “Fakest” pastors.
“Does a man having a job guarantee that he will make a good husband? Does a woman knowing how to cook guarantee she will make a good wife?
“Ok I get it, The Nigerian god has an ear infection, so we must shout and pray for hours because that’s the only way he may listen to our prayers, right? I know that a man is supposed to marry a helper and not a cook or a house girl. By the way, is anything wrong with encouraging your young male congregation to learn how to cook and do chores too.
“Do not marry a worldly lady” Is it about being materialistic or just being fashionable, looking nice. I guess in your book we can’t be a good Christian if we got swag and we are trendy. Judge not pastor. We must all not look like Deeper Life people to have a personal relationship with God. By the way, if you want to start writing your own commandment you may as well write your own version of the bible for your congregation.
“Being married should never define a man or a woman. Marriage in a few years anyways, will be out of fashion. Being married is only nice if we are lucky to pick a partner who will be our friend, if not, that maybe hell on earth. All of us must not get married if our threshold for nonsense and garbage is low. The world is obviously changing and we are no longer in the 60s. Who wants to be suffering and smiling.
“So Pastor Adeboye, watch your yarns because a lot of people look up to you.”
