Controversial actress, Tonto Dikeh, has taken to social media to berate pastors for watching members slip into depression.
In the same post, she also berated pastors for allegedly ignoring the plea of their members, who reportedly tend to slip into depression due to the weight of their many problems.
She made reference to the case of Michael Arowobaiye who committed suicide on Tuesday, May 14th.
In a post she shared on her Instagram page, Tonto stated that church members should be topmost on the mind of a concerned leader in a church.
Her post reads:
“I’m prolly the last person who will ever speak ill of a pastor or church
BUT
how can a pastor seat back and watch a core member who handles the microphone on sundays to lead praise and worship Not be able to pay house rent to the point of falling into deep depression and eventually takes his own life!!
I am not a pastor,Never might be but no one who ever comes to me with a problem goes home remaining the same!!I will be damn the day that happens!!!
Yes you cant give all your church members help but Man the church workers etc shld be helped!!
Some of these folks go to church every single day for hours working,sew department uniforms for every service with their money ,use their own money for transport,to look up to standard to be on your pulpit,Some will receive beatings from parents/husband/boyfriend about late night waka and THEY END UP not receiving a dime and you say they working for God!!God doesn’t run a slave trade, God even appreciates you with tithes and offering so why do you think others shld work in vain!!
I am one Christian who believe God is extremely partial and more forgiving on Pastors than the rest of us, enhance I stay away from their talk!!!
Well why wldnt he be,they serve him!!
DEAR PASTORS YOU NEED TO CARE MORE!!
#RIP TO A CHRISTAIN BROTHER”
