What is wrong in calling your pastor Daddy?
In our African culture among Igbos and Yorubas, we often call our male elders "Papa" or "Baba" and female elders "Mama" or "Mummy".
It is for RESPECT and a blessing for humility.

Why do you make your child call you daddy.. do you not think this builds Respect and More importantly - Ownership of his expectations, actions and reverence - this role is attributed to which ever god you worship not some dufus priest with a multiple scleroid speech

Nigerian christians look like slaves to their pastors. I even heard that oyedepo slapped his church member some year ago. All these one man churches are total fake. A situation where one man wake one day and open a business centre called church. And starting estorting money from his slaves called church members. After he has estort enough of money then he becomes so proud and powerful. That time he can afford to slap any of his slaves called church members. Now let me ask u some questions. How many people did jesus slapped? How many people did jesus shouted at?. So u can see that nigerian christians are slaves to their pastors.

specialguest: As I type this right now I am literally boiling with Anger. Imagine! I and my partner went to see the pastor today regarding our marriage plans and we met his absence. I decided to check the church office and behold I met his wife. The following conversation ensued between us

Me- Goodafternoon ma

Pastor's wife- Goodafternoon

Me- Ma, please is pastor around? He asked me and my fiance to see him today

Pastor's wife- which pastor?

Me- pastor abcd(i mentioned his name)

Pastor's wife- turned back stirred at me and shook her head then she said " I would have thought you were referring to someone else, how can you call my husband pastor abcd(his name) this is highly disrespectful. Bla Bla Bla Bla she went on and on about her displeasure.

Me- I am sorry ma, I summoned my fiance and we left.

Is it wrong for one to refer to his pastor as pastor abcd(his name) For christ sakes where in the bible was it written that we need to address our pastors as mummy and daddy?

By the way, the man in question would not have minded if I addressed him as pastor abcd o but his wife tongue lashed me even in his absence never to call him that again except daddy.
Next time you go,ask her.Is our husband at home?

In our African culture among Igbos and Yorubas, we often call our male elders "Papa" or "Baba" and female elders "Mama" or "Mummy".
It is for RESPECT and a blessing for humility.

I am neither Yoruba nor Igbo and since the nature of respect shown to elders differ from one culture to another, in mine for instance the words 'baba meaning daddy and mama meaning mummy' are reserved for ones biological or adopted parents to a certain extent. I may wish to address someone else outside my parents as baba and mama but that is solely at my own discretion and it depends on the nature of relationship between myself and the person.
A member should be under no obligation to be made to refer to his pastor by a particular "pet name" . If he were present i would simply say Goodmorning Sir, please may i see you? but since he wasn't anywhere in sight i saw his wife and greeted her Goodmorning ma, please is pastor around?

I believe that is RESPECT not when i call him daddy in her presence just to get attention.

tpia@:
find another church to attend if you are annoyed.

and stop generalizing, thanks.

how old is the pastor in question? In some cultures [eg yoruba], you are expected to show respect if people are 30+ years your senior.

In any case, address people the way they want to be addressed.


Wow. 168 likes against you. It's time u change your ways. Your brothers,Mr cork and 190 have al changed for the better. Pls do. Thanks.

Can someone please tell Daily news not to cry anymore. You can come and live with us when we get married, there"s room for an adopted "daddy" smiley. But seriously when I was single you did not toast me o na now wey another man don put ring ur eye dey chuk..
Re: The 'Daddy-Mummy Syndrome' In Nigerian Churches by Nobody: 1:15pm On Dec 23, 2013
A lot of people are empty inside. Mix it with pride and they latch on to anything they can find to think they should be essentially worshipped by everyone else. OP you did the right thing by being an ambassador of peace and not following her to get into drama because that is what the demon controlling her wanted you to do.

God is not done working in that Pastor's wife's life. We all have our projects...

Mathew 23:9 And don't address anyone here on earth as 'Father,' for only God in heaven is your spiritual Father.

MANY False prophets of the End-Times have taken up this title and their masses of gullible, blissfully ignorant minions (who are all going to hell BTW) have placed God on the pages of the Bible and all they do is worship DADDY.. spank me Daddy, o yea Daddy, You hit da Spot Daddy.. Blind F00ls grin grin grin grin grin

What she calls her pastor is not my concern. If she likes she can give her father a thorough beating for asking her to have manners.


Her issue here are the attacks she launches on other people using nl as a medium, her so-called fiance is thinking he has found a wife, we shall see! By the time she is done with his juju ingesting asss, he will wish he had proposed to his other girlfriends.
