- Comedian DeeOne called out popular gospel singer Yinka Alaseyori for her recent apology
- The reality TV star criticised the lyrical evangelist for bowing to pressure, instead holding her grounds

Reality TV star and comedian DeeOne has criticised gospel singer Yinka Alaseyori following her recent apology to Nigerians over comments she made about insecurity in the country.
Alaseyori had earlier urged Nigerians to pray for President Bola Tinubu and security agencies, insisting that efforts were being made to tackle the nation’s security challenges.

Her remarks, however, sparked backlash, especially as they came amid public outrage over the Oyo State abduction of schoolchildren.
In response to the criticism, the singer released a video apologising to Nigerians.
Reacting in a video, DeeOne expressed disappointment, saying Alaseyori had “lost an opportunity to evangelise the world.”
He argued that her apology was driven by public pressure rather than divine conviction.
“Mrs Yinka Alaseyori, first of all, I want to thank you and thank God for your ministry. God has used you a lot, but what you did today, please don’t ever try it again… You were in the spirit when you said people should pray. I want to believe it was God speaking through you, but you lost an opportunity to evangelise,” DeeOne said.
He further stressed that apologising to please men could have “spiritual repercussions,” urging the gospel singer to remain steadfast in her calling as a minister rather than bowing to public opinion.
“I can bet 100% that you did not seek the face of God before you made that apology video. Na pressure makes you go do that thing (apology), you apologize because people were dragging you. Maybe you are looking at it that they no go call you again for events or people would not like you. The Bible says I would look up to the hills, from where my help comes from. No be all of us wey dey drag go feed you. If you’re in doubt, you would have to go back to God on your knees and ask God. You’re a minister of God and not just an entertainer.
“Is what you said wrong? ‘No, but pressure made you apologise. You have to displease God to please men, and there would be spiritual repercussions. I hope you know that. Please don’t ever under any circumstances do that again. I don’t know who advised you, but whoever advised you did not give you good advice. Under no circumstance should you try this again. I’m sure that the host of heaven will be so disappointed, but God is a forgiving father."
DeeOne also referenced other gospel figures like Testimony Jaga, whom he described as bold in his faith.
