A video featuring an alleged member of the prominent Nigerian Christian denomination, The Lord’s Chosen, purchasing a bottle of beer has sparked a heated online debate.
The footage, which has been widely circulated on social media, shows a man dressed in the distinctive lemon green bib associated with The Lord’s Chosen, openly buying a bottle of Heineken from a street vendor.
The sight of the individual, believed to be a member of the church, engaging in such an act has generated a strong reaction from netizens.
Many have expressed outrage, arguing that the consumption of alcohol is forbidden for the Lord’s Chosen members.
Others, however, have adopted a different approach, suggesting that the individual’s personal choices should not be hastily judged without proper context.
As the video continues to be widely shared, it remains to be seen whether the church leadership will address the matter and provide any clarifications.
