VDM questions Arome Osayi’s identity on flyer

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that VeryDarkMan criticised Arome Osayi after noticing that the cleric was listed as representing the United States on a flyer for an upcoming Cameroon for Jesus Crusade Conference.

VDM questioned why Osayi was associated with the US rather than Nigeria and argued that residency or citizenship abroad does not change a person’s Nigerian identity.

He also reminded the cleric of his Edo roots while urging him to embrace his Nigerian heritage.
