Nigerian Stories, a prominent social media platform, recently took to its official X (formerly Twitter) handle to announce that popular activist, VeryDarkMan, is facing intense criticism for speaking out against the revered Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement. In a post titled “JUST IN: VeryDarkMan is learning things the hard way for speaking against the Chosen Church,” the platform hinted at the significant backlash the activist has encountered.
At the heart of the controversy is VeryDarkMan’s public criticism of the church’s leader, General Overseer Lazarus Muoka. Known for his unwavering spiritual influence and the large following his ministry commands, Muoka and the Chosen Church hold a special place in Nigeria’s Christian community. As such, any critique of the church or its leadership is bound to stir strong reactions.
Since making his statements, VeryDarkMan has reportedly been on the receiving end of harsh rebukes, both online and offline. The intensity of the response highlights the influence and deep-rooted loyalty that the Lord’s Chosen Church commands among its followers. Supporters of the church are not taking kindly to what they see as an attack on their faith and spiritual leader.
This situation raises broader questions about the intersection of free speech, religious authority, and public discourse in Nigeria. While VeryDarkMan is known for his outspoken nature on social issues, this particular confrontation has clearly put him in a difficult position, as he navigates the powerful reactions from the church’s dedicated congregation.
The saga between VeryDarkMan and the Lord’s Chosen Church is still unfolding, with many Nigerians keenly watching how the activist will handle the mounting pressure and if any reconciliation will be sought with the church’s leadership.
In the ever-vibrant world of Nigerian religious dynamics, one thing is certain: challenging an institution as significant as the Lord’s Chosen Church is no small feat, and VeryDarkMan is indeed learning this the hard way.
