I Don’t Endorse Pastors Or Churches – Wizkid

Posted by: Folamidavid in Celebrity News Dec 19, 2019

Popular singer, Wizkid has jumped on social media to blast fake pastors in Nigeria.

According to him, he does not endorse any pastor or church and anyone saying otherwise is lying.

His words on Twitter, “Starboy no dey endorse no Pastor or church o! Ogun kill u fake pastors!”

This is coming after Davido called out the authority of the Commonwealth Of Zion Assembly reccently for using an unauthorized clip for its advertorial.

His words, “I’m writing to quickly disclaim the viral videos going around of me advertising COZA event to come up when I have to say I have NOTHING to do with the church!!! The fact that I did a quick video for a kid introduced as a fan just for her personal use and it was chopped up and used for an advert extremely disappoints me!!! I have never and most certainly not associated in any way with COZA church and have reached out to those responsible for this madness immediately!! I will most certainly be proceeding further if you do not react that video immediately!!! A word is enough!!!”

Do you believe him?
