The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries has strongly denounced the ridicule surrounding viral videos of member testimonies, asserting that the church would never fabricate such accounts.

In response to the viral video floating on social media, the head of Public Relations and Media, Pastor Chidi Louis, explained that one of the testimonies was a recounting of a dream, which was taken out of context to discredit the church.

Pastor Louis urged the public to watch the full testimonies on the church’s official platform for clarity.

He added that some bloggers maliciously edit videos to mock the work of God and warned against believing everything seen online.

Freedom Times News gathered that these remarks followed the circulation of testimonies deemed incredible by many viewers, including one where a member claimed a lion had saved them and another where a woman said she overpowered armed robbers and seized their AK-47 rifles.

The church urged Nigerians to be skeptical of what they see online, warning that some bloggers deliberately misrepresent content for sensationalism.

A male member also described surviving a kidnapping, machete attacks, and gunshots without injury.

In response, the church clarified that the footage was manipulated.

The church dismissed the viral videos as fake and encouraged people to disregard them.

Popular Nigerian actress, model, and television host, Kehinde Bankole, has revealed the only condition that would make her accept a nude role in a movie.

She disclosed this during a recent podcast appearance, when she was asked whether she would be willing to perform nude scenes on screen.

In response, the actress explained that, she believes nudity and explicit scenes are not always essential for conveying a compelling narrative in films.

She elucidated further that, such content should only be included if it genuinely serves the story.

She said, “As far as it is intelligently required, not just because it is required. Sometimes, you do not need nudity, you do not need excessive kissing, you do not need all of that to tell a good story.

“For example, if a couple has been married for 10 years, you do not need to start the scene by showing them in a sexual act.”

Although the actress expressed concern that her opinion might be misinterpreted, but noted that she would only take on nude roles if they are “artistically required”.

“I do not like that question because the answer would always be taken out of context. This is the internet, after all. I will just say that I can do what is artistically required,” she added.

Bankole made her entertainment debut in Miss Commonwealth Nigeria 2003, then proceeded with MBGN 2004. She was named Revelation of the Year at the 2009 Best of Nollywood Awards, two years after her first screen feature in Wale Adenuga’s Super Story.

Since then, she has starred in numerous Nollywood productions, including ‘Adire’, ‘Sister’, and ‘Funmilayo Ransome Kuti’.
