Popular Nigerian singer D’Banj has sparked controversy after a video of him prostrating before Pastor Jerry Eze during a surprise visit for the pastor’s 42nd birthday surfaced online.

The gesture, intended as a sign of respect, has sparked heated discussions on social media, with many fans and critics weighing in.

During his visit, the 44-year-old singer was seen bowing, holding Pastor Eze’s hands, and offering a prayer of blessing.

While some viewed the act as a touching display of humility, others criticized the singer, arguing that it was unnecessary for a public figure of his stature.

Dragged by idiots.

This may not be about people worshipping pastors. In Yoruba culture, people postrate for their elders. Is the pastor not his elder?

In fact, whether the pastor is D'Banj's elder or not, dragging D'Banj is an undeniable evidence of double standards. The same people whose aged parents postrate or stand up for younger pastors are the ones dragging D'Banj.

Those dragging D'Banj are probably the ones that dragged the daughter of Wigue for not standing up for the vice president during Wigue's burial.

That's why Yoruba is different from many other tribes and culture. Good sign of Omoluabi.

Yoruba bow to money.
Forget all that respect elders talk. Be a broke elder in yoruba land and the kids will disrespect you openly.


Btw they are crying because their biggest yoruba artiste bowed before an Igbo man.

Its even funny that most of the "draggers" know this, so why make a fuse out of it?


If a man deems it fit to follow his harmless cultural practice when dealing with those who identify with a diff culture, I dont know why anyone should be irked at that

A 90yo Yoruba man shouldnt expect a 20yo Hausa guy to prostrate to him and thats fair too

And when Obasanajo bowed before Olu of Warri, was it about Money too?
Was that King an Igbo too?
Isnt OBJ the bigger than this one?

Wasnt there reactions too? Its not always about Igbos.

So why are your people crying?
Dbanj is hungry and needs to feed his family.

Salvation they said, is a personal race. I will do same if i'm in his shoes

Humility indeed
Let Dbanj go bow to a cleric in Agege if he's truly humble


Abi na only billionaires he dey humble to?

To imagine that the people dragging Dbanj were not even alive when Tongolo came out
If I tell them the koko, make you tell them the truth

Respect will give you wisdom. Disrespect will get you stuck
