In a recent Tweet on his handle, @Deola_Daniel said he has had his fair share of experiences at the hand of Nigerian pastors.

He admitted that being disabled in Nigeria can be frustrating, as everyone thinks they can restore the use of your legs.

According to him, his many encounters with Nigerian pastors always have the same embarrassing ending.

It usually begins with prayers and at the end of the day, nothing happens, making it appear God is bad.

He said:

"One of the most frustrating things about being disabled in Nigeria, is everyone believes they have a divine call to heal you.
"Everywhere I go, “I command you to get up in the name of Jesus”.
"Then that awkward moment of staring at each other.
"Why you gon make God look bad?"
