Pastor Femi Lazarus said public criticism of the church or pastor is not the public.
He said the church has a hierarchical command, and it is a responsibility for the pastor to maintain that command.
He added that the church will no longer remain silent, and ministers and their ministry are criticized online.
He said: “The problem with the local church and the body of Christ is not every conversation between Tom, Dick and Harry
He added that the hierarchy of the church means that as a pastor, he has the right to call on the music minister to order.
However, he added: “Music artists are not ministers of the kingdom, so musical artists are not suitable for the church.”
He continues to emphasize the differences between music artists and music ministers
He added that when he corrected the singer, he was speaking to the music minister instead of talking to the music artist.
This is because he was charged for the high temperatures for condemning the gospel singers because he paid a huge fee to the church.
Speaking at the church, Femi Lazarus further pointed out that the three government departments have united to form a coalition and they will now work to remove any platform for critics of pastors or online ministry.
“When you go online to promote the ministry’s mistakes, one minute later, the three ministries come together and now there is a platform and we will immediately lower your platform,” he said.
His threat sparked anger and Nigerians increasingly criticized him.

The issue with the Body of Christ is not a conversation with the blogger.
Ministers, if God doesn’t call you a full-time ministry, find a job!
