Media personality Daddy Freeze has reacted to Evangelist Mike Bamiloye’s take on Coronavirus spread in Africa.
Mike Bamiloye had stated that the reason the virus is not so much in Africa is that people pray and fast.
Freeez has now responded to
Bamiloye’s comment, calling it an unscholarly one and asking why fasting and
prayer did not end Lassa Fever or poverty.
In his words;
”Dear @mikebamiloye,
I find it unscholarly of you
to make such a vacuous post about something so sensitive.
Really? Our prayers???? If
this makes sense to you then I’m worried! Why didn’t prayer and fasting prevent
Lassa fever?🙄
How have our prayers helped
in reducing poverty? Nigeria is the poverty capital of the world, with more
than double the extreme poverty figures of China where the Corona virus 🦠
emanated from.
So far (scroll left to see
the figure), as of March 11th, ONLY about 5,000 people have died GLOBALLY from
Corona virus.
In Nigeria, with more than
95 million people in extreme poverty, we probably have more than 5,000 people
dying EVERY SINGLE WEEK from extreme poverty and from poverty related issues,
such as the lack of basic health care services, lack of electricity, lack of
access to clean water and from accidents resulting from lack of good roads.
People in the western world aren’t dying en masse from these like we are,
despite not praying or fasting. Please focus your prayers on the eradication of
poverty; that to us is greater a virus than Corona.🙄
The herdsmen saga and Boko
haram have also taken its toll on us. People are dying weekly if not daily, how
have your prayers helped reduce this scourge? No other western country is
dealing with these issues of this magnitude. Please pray and fast for the
herdsmen and Boko haram virus first, as that’s a near and present danger.
Religion is yet another
virus that has killed and will continue to kill more Africans than Corona ever
can. Always keep this in perspective.
Other viruses killing us
include bad leadership, poor law enforcement and jungle justice; factor those
into your prayer and fasting points.
I find this post rather
insensitive! In my opinion, it’s a mockery of God and an insult to our
intelligence.
Stay blessed.
