They threatened to kill me, my family for criticizing Nigerian pastors – Daddy Freeze

Media personality Ifedayo Olarinde, better known as Daddy Freeze, has revealed that he and his family received death threats about ten years ago due to his open criticism of Nigerian pastors.

He made this known while speaking on a podcast where he is one of the hosts.

Daddy Freeze explained that the threats came after he began questioning the teachings and actions of some church leaders in the country.

According to him, his personal experience with the church after his divorce pushed him to seek deeper understanding of religious texts, which later led to his outspoken views.

He recounted how his former church stopped him from taking part in activities and even banned him from sitting in front during services after he refused to reconcile with his ex-wife.

This rejection, he said, led him to stop attending church and instead focus on studying scriptures in their original form.

As a result of his growing knowledge, Daddy Freeze began to speak out against what he described as misleading practices in Nigerian churches.

He claimed that many people insulted him, and he became a target of verbal attacks and threats, which also affected his loved ones.

Daddy Freeze added that his actions years ago paved the way for others who are now boldly questioning church authorities in Nigeria.

“If there’s anybody who has experienced persecution from Nigerian pastors and their minions, it’s me.

“They called me derogatory names. I had death threats that were transferred to my family members. That was 10 years ago. And the work I did is why you have people standing up today to the church”, the media personality said.
