In a former report by TheTalk.NG, the video began with Adefarasin’s Range Rover slowing down near the videographer. The window rolls down, and the content creator greets the pastor.
However, Adefarasin responded sternly while holding an object that has been misinterpreted as a pistol. The videographer quickly apologizes as the vehicle drives off.
The video triggered a wave of criticism online, with many accusing Adefarasin of brandishing a firearm in public. However, in a statement released on social media, Adefarasin denied the allegations, clarifying that the object in his hand was not a weapon.
Reacting to the video that has now become a hot topic online, the actor attacked Nigerians for criticising the pastor, while cattle rearers get to do the same without being challenged.
Gideon wrote on Instagram:
“Why does a cattle herdsman get a pass to carry mechetes, daggers and charms openly. i mean roam freely infront of police sef, for the protection of their lives and property. Cattle rearer and pastor…are they not equal citizens.”

“All I need from you is one video where this particular pastor is telling people to rely on only anointed oil for their their safety. ONLY ONE. It’s okay for us to hang every Pastor because there are thieves among them. If I talk now they will say I’m supporting pastor. As if pastors are not human. Can we normalise dealing with people on personal basis? Celebrity, Pastor o, farmer, civil servants are first of all, HUMAN.”
