Comedienne Princess recently took a dig at popular Lagos pastor, Poju Oyemade, over his status as a single.
Princess, who was at Oyemade’s church, Covenant Christian Centre, Yaba, Lagos to worship but was bounced from the front row seat of the church because she is single, took a dig at the dashing pastor who, like the comedienne belongs to the singles’ club.
A visibly embarrassed Princess took to Twitter to express her shock at the discrimination meted out to her when she went to worship at the church a fortnight ago.
“I can’t believe dis Covenant Christian Centre people & their sitting arrangement. Is dis not supposed to be the house of God?! One usher told me I couldn’t sit in front cos I am single. I nearly died of embarrassment, in d presence of God!” Princess tweeted.
She stated that Oyemade was aware of what happened, as he was present while she rebuked the usher later on at the car park. The pastor belatedly apologised to the comedienne who wasted no time to hit Oyemade.
“…But I feel really PAINED u waited dis long knowing what your usher did on Sunday was VERY wrong. It’s not a sin 2 b SINGLE! OMG! So u r single too, that usher owes me a BIG time apology. He spoilt my day, made me regret coming to your church & hurt my feelings,” she added.
