Traditionalist blasts bus preacher

The traditionalist made a video, telling people that he boarded the bus, which was headed to Lagos Island, when the man began to preach.

He said he got offended when the preacher ridiculed his tradition, something he won't let slide.

The traditionalist began to sing the late music legend Fela Anikulapo Kuti's song 'Yellow Fever' aloud as he continually interrupted the preacher.

The preacher countered by declaring that he has destroyed the traditionalist's idol.

The traditionalist criticised the Christian religion, saying it was brought to Africa to destroy the continent's heritage. He tagged the African religion as the best and refused to give the preacher peace.

"My people make una see me o. I dey inside danfo dey go Lagos Island. This man dey preach, I no talk. But he is preaching against my tradition and my culture, and me I no gree with am. So, as he dey disturb me so, even me myself dey sing my African spirituality music," the traditionalist said in Pidgin English.

The clip shared on Facebook by Brian Jonah Dennis amused people.
