Nigerian controversial singer, Habeeb Olalomi Oyegbile popularly known as Portable has said Celestial church of Christ should not judge him by his looks, adding that he is also a son of God.
He made the statement in a trending video posted on Tiktok.
The internet went agog earlier after the event flier emerged on social media with popular Fuji singer, Pasuma, May-Shua and Portable listed as invited artists to perform at the celestial church event.
The development generated controversy as netizens took to different social media platforms to knock the church over its choice of singers.
The Shepherd-in-charge of the Celestial Church of Christ International Headquarters, Ketu, Olatosho Oshoffa, has since condemned the invitation of the trio.
Oshoffa, in a post via his Facebook page last week, condemned Portable and Pasuma’s invitation to the church’s praise night stating that he had spoken to the cleric in charge of the parish to make amendments to the posters, adding that the singers would no longer grace the occasion.
He wrote, “Dear Celestians, I have just spoken to the Shepherd in Charge of the above Parish at length. He has promised to make amendments to the posters.
“He has promised that the said contested artists would NOT come for the Nights. There is No doubt the said poster is very CONDEMNABLE. God bless CCC. Amen.”
Portable, however, while reacting to the cancellation of his performance at the event, urged the church not to stop ‘God’s work’.
