Evangelist Joshua Mike Bamiloye shared his thoughts on the new Big Brother Naija All Stars show on Twitter.
He pointed out that those criticizing Christians addicted to the show should also examine themselves if they are not addicted to football. He highlighted that many people criticizing others might be equally addicted to football and could get distracted even during church services. Bamiloye advised everyone to be mindful of distractions and avoid engaging in sinful and addictive content.
“Before you tackle Christians watching BB, be sure you’re not a football addict. Before you tackle ladies that know everything about their favorite character, be sure you’re not the same with all the football players. Before you… 1/criticize them replacing devotion time with the show, be sure you haven’t skipped a fellowship over a hot match, Or you haven’t been checking live scores during the service.

“The fact remains that whatever competes with God in your heart is on the same boat, ofcourse… 2/ we know the show contains immoral scenes and isn’t exactly productive (life of over 80% of entertainment content today). So let’s encourage building our walk with God and placing him as top priority and it’ll reflect in how much wisdom we apply in handling these contents. 3/3” He tweeted.

@amazinernest: “If you want to talk to me , drag me to the corner. Wetin football do you sir.”
@shinaayomi071: “Why am I hearing you screaming my name as I’m reading this.”
@yemigboyega: “Omo agbelebu ni Joshua. Your parents raised you well spiritually. You have never disappointed me, your siblings too. More of God in you brother in the Lord.”
@daviddosuu: “Your logic dictates that it’s right to treat a mass murderer on the same footing with a petty thief. I hope you see the flaw in that.”
@ms_idera: “One christian young man just broke off his engagement with his fiancee/fiance because of BBN. I have no comment.”
@midasnonso: “The problem with you is your gatekeeping stance on Christians and your commands that are mostly unscriptural. You guys are using your parent’s name tag to enforce laws and narratives that even if Jesus was here won’t let any fly. Allow Christians Breeeeet. Mr Joshua!”
@buj_landlord: “Please Sir do not compare football to BBN. We never said people shouldn’t entertain themselves but a show that sells promiscuity and lewdness can’t be equal to EPL…
On the other hand, I’m not speaking on behalf of football pundits and stakers..”
@Abba_NaAllah: “Comparing football and the BBN show is like comparing a pencil and a car. They don’t relate… There are church sponsored football teams. However, we get your point.”
@KenEarth1909: “Thank God for my life then. I’m neither a fan of BB nor football. Especially football. So with pride, I can knock both at the two ends.”
