Sheik Agbara Omi Weighs in on Controversy Between Pastor Agbala Gabriel and Muyideen
Popular radio presenter and Islamic cleric Sheik Agbara Omi has decided to comment on the ongoing matter between popular pastor Agbala Gabriel and Muyideen. Sheik Agbara Omi stated that Pastor Agbala Gabriel’s troubles with Muyideen stem from his envy of Islam. He emphasized that converting people to Islam should be a matter of personal choice, not force, saying, “I don’t fight for people to join Islam by force. If you want to change people, you let them join by their choice.”
His comments have sparked a wave of reactions online:
Tope Aribosogan: “Thunder fire you there, who has bewitched us in Yoruba land?”
Adeoye: “You no get sense, sir.”
Adenike: “You people have started again.”
Olayinka: “You are a nuisance, sir.”
Ebenezer: “It will never be well with you, this useless man.”
Desmond: “Oga, I do not want to disrespect an elderly man, but your words aren’t palatable to my ears.”
Ariyo: “😀😀😀😀😀 Laughter has ceased in the city of the foolish… these are the ones who have been misleading people… I’m not disappointed at all in this baba.”
Babatunde: “Your opinion is yours, sir, but what you said here doesn’t make any sense at all. How many Muslims have you helped or brought out of poverty? It’s unfortunate that this can come from you; you are a disgrace to the Yoruba race and the religion you believe in.”
Great lord: “You are talking nonsense.”
Mighty Ayodele: “This is the biggest problem in our society now. Why did envy not make Pastor stop helping him at first sight? Muyideen was the most aided or most helped person since the Agbala Foundation started, despite religious differences. Where were you and those ritualist alfas when he looked like a mad man on the street hawking? Didn’t you know he was Muslim then? 😡 I know most of the ignorant alfas were waiting for this to happen so they could spew their minds. Stupid people.”
Makinde: “You are not saying the truth, sir. I am from a Muslim background. All what you said are pure lies. May the Lord forgive you.”
The comments reflect the deep divisions and tensions surrounding the issue, highlighting the sensitive nature of religious and interfaith relations in the community.
