Alex Barbir Responds to Backlash Over Criticism of Pastor Adeboye's Tinubu Remarks

American Christian missionary Alex Barbir has responded to the criticism that followed his comments about Pastor Enoch Adeboye's remarks on President Bola Tinubu's handling of insecurity in Nigeria.

In a new video circulating on social media, Barbir defended his position, arguing that many Nigerians have developed a culture of placing prominent religious leaders beyond public criticism. According to him, no public figure should be exempt from accountability when commenting on issues affecting the nation.

Barbir also questioned why some church leaders are celebrated for their influence and achievements while many Christians facing violence and persecution continue to struggle. His remarks have reignited debate over the role of religious leaders in addressing Nigeria's security challenges.

The comments have divided opinion online. Supporters say Barbir is encouraging accountability and honest conversations within the Church, while critics argue that his statements unfairly generalize pastors and overlook the humanitarian work carried out by many churches across the country.

The controversy has continued to generate widespread reactions, with many Nigerians debating the relationship between faith, leadership, politics, and national security. The discussion has also highlighted differing views on how influential religious leaders should engage with government policies and public issues.

Watch the full video ABOVE to hear Alex Barbir's latest remarks and the reactions they have generated. Share your opinion respectfully in the comments: Should religious leaders be open to public criticism, or are some of the reactions going too far?

Alex barbir must be an obidient.

Anyone that's not promoting tinubu must be Peter obi supporter.

Hmmmm. Politics/governance and Religion shouldn’t even be merged together in the first place. People should talk to baba abeg

Adeboye is a PULPIT BANDIT.

That's all.

@Emboldened

It is a primitive/backward/barbaric mindset because our leaders ( both political & otherwise) are primitive/backward/barbaric minded.
Hence, they can only give what they have:Religious bigotry,ethnic hatred, no vision,no creativity,no new ideas...nothing

Adeboye no try sha. Gone are the days of old where prophets like Elijah and Elisha will speak up against evil leaders.. and challenge the prophets of Baal.

Adeboye can't even call Tiffnubu out with boldness, if it's Johnathan now, sharperly he'll be out to protest

No be only servant of the high God!


Did you realize that you too is a servant of the most high God, and that you are made by the image of God ?

If you understand Africans, you can not have sympathy for them. If you have sympathy for them, then you do not understand Africans.
