Urban said the governor had been doing that before his election:

"Before you spill rubbish, he has been serving for a long time in Living Faith Church before becoming even the speaker House of Assembly, let alone governor in Delta State."

Tunji Herbert criticises religious leaders:

"In Nigeria, religious leaders and political leaders are in the same WhatsApp group. Both work really hard to put the lives of ordinary Nigerians at bay."

Upele Alama said the governor is doing God's work:

"There is nothing special about this. A governor is not bigger than God. Allow the governor to serve God in his own way in peace. We attach too much importance to earthly things. Nobody is leaving this world alive."
