Daddy Freeze
hehehehe............... #FreeTheSheeple
convener and popular Radio OAP, Daddy Freeze who is known to bash
people on social media, has called for a boycott of tithe payments by
Christians in church as he urges church owners to start paying their
taxes.
While speaking in an exclusive interview with Punch's
Sunday Scoop, popular Cool FM Lagos on-air-personality, Ifedayo
Olarinde, widely known as Daddy Freeze, said he is keeping his marital
status away from the public for security and legal reasons.
When asked if he would be giving marriage another shot considering
that he is always flaunting his girlfriend’s cooking on Instagram, he
said, “For legal and security reasons, I like to keep my marital
status away from the public. Yes, there is a beautiful woman in my life
called Benedicta Kelechi, aka Taste buds, but I cannot disclose my
marital status.
"My bae’s food is amazing and I’ve never tasted food that good
since my mother gave birth to me. I travelled to Romania for two weeks
recently and I missed her food throughout; I couldn’t wait to get back.
And true to type, she welcomed me with a wonderfully prepared meal when I
got back into the country.”
Speaking on the reason for his Free the Sheeple movement in which he speaks against some Christian clerics, he said, “The
Bible says in the book of Acts that the Lord does not dwell in
buildings but we have made the mistake of turning the church into
buildings in Nigeria. The church is supposed to be a way of life; it
should be in you, that is one of the foundations of religion.
"Christianity enjoins us to behave like Jesus, and one thing
Jesus taught was that we should love one another. But I have videos of
general overseers of churches telling their members to behead anybody
that looks like a Boko Haram member. You cannot win war with war; Jesus
taught his followers to love all irrespective of what is done to them.
So obviously, churches, particularly the Pentecostal ones, have lost the
essence of Christianity.
"Churches these days are more like drug cartels. What churches
should do is unite people but they are more interested in collecting
tithes, which has no biblical backing. I’m starting with social media
for now. Nigeria is not a very easy terrain to mess with religion, but
it is beginning to gain momentum on the Internet. My former pastor
reached out to me, though I cannot mention his name, and we had a
healthy discussion on this. Right now though, I attend a catholic
church.”
On whether he isn’t bothered that his Free the Sheeple movement may lead to him being attacked, he said, “I’m
hoping it wouldn’t lead to that by the grace of God and I have my own
security arrangement. Right now, I get some hateful comments online but
the irony is that these are the same people I’m trying to save. Instead
of them to see me as a friend that is trying to guide them, they see me
as an enemy.”
Freeze also reiterated his belief that Christians shouldn’t pay tithe, saying,
“There is nothing wrong in giving offering, but there is nowhere in the
Bible where Jesus collected tithes. Paying tithes is an Old Testament
concept, but these days, so-called men of God have twisted the
scriptures to enslave their followers, so they can keep collecting their
money.
"The Bible says in Deuteronomy that you should use your tithe
to ‘buy beer and wine, and enjoy yourself in a place that God has
chosen.’ If you want to give Jesus money, you don’t have to give it to a
pastor; you can rather give it to the poor and needy. Things like
‘first fruit’ offerings are nothing but scam. As a matter of fact, I
think churches should pay tax because Jesus paid tax while on earth.”
