Daddy Freeze, a prominent figure in the media, has criticized religious leaders for their conspicuous silence concerning the commitment made by Ilebaye, the winner of Big Brother Naija All-Stars, to give a substantial tithe.
Ilebaye attracted attention when she, in a widely circulated video, declared her intention to contribute N12 million as a tithe to her church from her prize money.

Although she later clarified in an interview that her original statement had been misunderstood, emphasizing that she still intended to pay a tithe but not the exorbitant sum of N12 million.

He pointed out that these leaders had consistently been quick to express their disapproval of reality shows like Big Brother, yet they had chosen to remain silent in the face of Ilebaye’s tithe commitment.
Daddy Freeze went further to assert that many of these religious leaders seemed to prioritize material wealth, suggesting that they were more inclined to worship “Mammon,” a symbol of materialism and wealth, rather than focusing on a genuine connection with God.
