Nigerian reality star Doyin criticizes her compatriots for prioritizing prayer and participating in hallelujah challenges over work, stating her disbelief in religious programs.
Addressing a fan's query about her absence from online religious activities, Doyin expressed her skepticism, stating, "I get a lot of those hallelujah challenge and what God cannot do doesn’t exist tags. People keep sending them to me but I just don’t believe in that type of stuff so I never join. It’s not bad… I just don’t believe in it."
She further elaborated on her stance, highlighting the disparity between religious fervor and tangible progress: "If it were really by 'hallelujah challenge' and 'what God cannot do'…..Nigeria should be one of the greatest countries by now. We spend too much time praying and shouting hallelujah instead of actually working and being actual good human beings."
Doyin emphasized the importance of self-improvement and societal contribution over mere vocal affirmations of faith: "To me, it’s just a complete waste of time but to each his own. If you believe in it then by all means. At the end of the day, all that should matter is having a good relationship with God and being a good human being. If you like, shout hallelujah from now till next year. If you don’t find ways to improve yourself and provide value….you’ll keep shouting hallelujah in hunger."
