Precious Adugbo, a member of The Master’s Place International Church, has condemned what he described as misleading reports circulating online concerning Pastor Korede Komaiya’s sermon titled “Supernatural Speed.”
Adugbo, who said he was physically present during the service, alleged that portions of the sermon had been taken out of context and presented in a manner that misrepresented the overall message delivered by the cleric.
The controversy followed a testimony during the sermon in which Pastor Komaiya spoke about the transformative power of God and the possibilities that could arise from applying principles taught in his messages.
According to reports circulating online, critics focused on remarks attributed to the pastor, including: “If you do what I teach, you will be a millionaire in 90 days, if not shorter. If you do what I teach, you will cross billions in six months.”
However, Adugbo argued that presenting the statements in isolation without the broader context of the sermon created what he described as a false impression of the pastor’s message.
Adugbo, who has advocated that members of the public should “listen to the full message,” urged Nigerians to disregard what he called misleading publications and instead listen to the complete sermon before forming an opinion.
“These reports are not clarifications. They are distortions. They are false,” he said.
He maintained that listening to the complete sermon would provide a clearer understanding of the context and intention behind Pastor Komaiya’s remarks.
“People must take the time to listen to Pastor Komaiya’s teachings for themselves. Anyone who does will discover that his messages are impactful, transformational and entirely free from the ambiguity being forced upon them,” Adugbo said.
He also defended the cleric against what he described as reckless misrepresentation, arguing that religious leaders who have contributed to society should not be judged solely on isolated statements circulated on social media.
“Men like Pastor Korede Komaiya are not theorists, neither are they people who are chasing social media validation. Without men like Pastor Korede Komaiya, this society and this nation would already be in a far more dangerous and broken state,” he said.
Adugbo added that such individuals had contributed to holding society together and therefore deserved support and prayers rather than what he described as unfair public attacks.
“They have helped hold the line. They deserve our prayers, our support, and our protection from reckless misrepresentation,” he said.
