According to a recent video by Agbaletu TV on Monday, July 6, 2026, controversial cleric Dammy Paul has ignited fresh debate, asserting that religious ignorance is a primary driver of Nigeria’s socio-spiritual crisis.
In a recent statement, the pastor-turned-evangelist declared that a significant number of Islamic clerics (Alfas) lack a genuine understanding of the Quran, while many Christian pastors are equally unfit, lacking the fundamental skills to preach effectively.
Paul, who notably practiced Islam for 18 years before transitioning to Christianity, emphasized that his critique is not an attack on any faith but a call for accountability. He argued that these unqualified individuals should be barred from the pulpit and the mosque, as their misleading teachings foster division rather than unity.
“Religion is one of our problems because most Alfas don’t know the Quran and some pastors don’t know how to preach,” he stated firmly. His remarks have since sparked mixed reactions, with religious leaders demanding evidence and followers questioning the integrity of their spiritual guides.
Dammy Paul insists that only certified, knowledgeable clerics should be permitted to lead congregations to prevent the spread of doctrinal errors.
