By Biola Davies

A Lagos pastor has stirred up controversy by commissioning a raunchy billboard advert that shows a group of suggestively-dressed women above the caption: “All the hot girls in Lagos attend Dr Fireman’s church…Apart from you”.

Nigerian pastors are fiercely competitive as new churches spring up everyday and poaching is commonplace as widespread poverty pushes more people to “Miracle Churches”.

The self-styled Dr Sign Fireman came into public prominence with a poster he circulated five years ago. That advertisement captioned: “The God of dollars is my God” earned him the ire of Christians across the country who accused him of being another “Reverend King” a reference to the Lagos pastor who was convicted of murdering one of his church’s congregants.

Dr Fireman’s poster seems to be targeted at young Christians who are more likely to change churches on a whim. He also makes an appearance in the poster where he is seen sporting a snazzy hat, a gold necklace and a low-neck shirt

Dr Fireman was not available for comment.

That's the moral of the shepherds.
Sermons full of prohibitions for believers, but they carry a profligate and luxurious life, with the money you pay tithes of fools ...
Christian morality.
You remember Jimmy Swaggart?
