Gospel Singer, Dunsin Oyekan has caused a stir after being spotted in a viral video tackling Christians who listen to secular music and still share it on public space.
Speaking during a recent ministration, the gospel singer said people who listen to Asake and other worldly singers are living in a confused state as they can’t hear from God.
Oyekan added that he’s always baffled when these people insist they are unapologetically children of God.
He said;
“At the end of the year, when people were tagging some of us for their Spotify, Apple review for the year, and the people they listen to, you will see one secular musician. And then you will see Nathaniel Bassey. I’d say what is he doing there?
Your confidence baffles me, how will you hear God, you are living in a confused state. Someone is telling you as it is with the world, another is telling you how it is with God, which one do you want to pick. Nathaniel Bassey does it for me but you just played brother Asake. And you are bold to share it online. Sometimes I look at their profile some of them will write unapologetically a child of God.”

However, the statement from Dunsin has brought about mixed reactions from Nigerians.
See some of the reactions below:
This was the same thinking that encouraged the “don’t watch TV” doctrine by Deeper Life and 100years after, Baba Kumuyi reverses the doctrine to allow members watch TV.

Let us calm down with this Christian walk with God.
I speak in tongues while singing Nzaza by Asake, I can’t say same for any Nathaniel Bassey’s song https://t.co/DquN8MmjRd

There are messages for the multitude, there are messages for the 120; there are messages for the 70; there are messages for the 12; there are messages for the 3 and there are messages for Peter.

The fact is that if you must constantly hear God you must be careful of what goes into you, what you hear always is important.
Child of God know you are the atmosphere of God because you Carry his spirit. Not all songs are for you to digest. https://t.co/nOL4CQAlmQ
Few months ago, some Nigerian Christians on this app bashed Pastor Tobi, for singing and dancing to secular songs in his own church.

They said, the holy spirit can never go there. 💀
Today, they’re bashing this dude for speaking against listening to secular songs. Hyp0crites https://t.co/dTrbpGOUYx
Why can’t someone listen to secular music cos they love Jesus? But una fit wear secular clothes, watch secular movies, and use other worldly stuff. https://t.co/mhZq4pOrF0

See Christians sewing thread to defend their listening to “Secular” music.

This is the reason why some people don’t take us seriously.
“Personally I feel” “I think sha that if”
