Famed gospel singer and host of the annual Hallelujah Challenge, Nathaniel Bassey, has addressed critics questioning his choice not to monetize his social media pages.
Recently, one man conducted a detailed analysis highlighting how much money Brazil could make from his huge online following, especially during the much-watched Hallelujah Challenge.
Speaking on day 23 of the show, Bassey revealed he had been heavily criticized for his stance but insisted he had no intention of monetizing his platform. According to him, God did not instruct him to do this and he still believed that His blessings would come through other means.
The worship leader further explained that any decision he makes will still attract public judgment. He noted that if he decided to monetize his page, people would accuse him of turning his ministry into a business, and if he didn’t, some would think he was proud.
Bassey also used the opportunity to remind his followers not to use his demonetized identity to commit online scams. He advised fans to verify that all official YouTube accounts are named “Nathaniel Bassey Main” and warned them not to use his name to make money by interacting with other channels.
The gospel artist reflected on the impact of the Hallelujah Challenge, celebrated the testimonies shared by participants and expressed gratitude to God for the lives he has changed through the program. He also recently posted a video showing off the land he purchased for the Hallelujah Challenge House, revealing that by the grace of God, the building was completed in just eight months.

@frosh_vibes_: “Everyone has their own intentions for doing things. We should all respect their purpose for doing things. Ultimately our decisions are our results.”
@stanley180524: “But can your songs and other songs on Spotify give you money? Aren’t these songs also from God? Why use it to make money? I love you sir, monetize your channel and let us have peace once and for all.”
