Nigerian evangelist, Benita Okeke, has publicly criticized celebrity fashion designer Veekee James for claiming the Holy Spirit inspired her to create the wedding dress worn by Priscy Ojo, daughter of Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo, during her lavish JP2025 wedding.
Veekee James had earlier recounted that divine inspiration guided her in designing the white wedding gown for Priscy, stirring reactions across social media.
However, in a video shared on her Instagram page, Evangelist Okeke condemned the claim, describing the dress as “indecent” and unbefitting of Christian values.
“The dress was not decent. It wasn’t modest clothing,” Okeke stated. “Will the Holy Spirit really lead you to make a cloth that is revealing and exposes parts of the body that are supposed to be covered?”
She questioned the alignment of such a claim with biblical principles, emphasizing that the nature of God promotes modesty and decency.
“If you say the Holy Spirit led you to sew a cloth that isn’t appropriate for a Christian, then it becomes a license for indecency,” she added. “A cloth you wouldn’t even wear to church—how can that be of the Holy Spirit?”
