Assemblies of God church stops hosting of comedians nationwide

Rev. Chidi Okoroafor who is the head of the Assemblies of God Church, Nigeria, has threatened to query any pastor who hosts comedian in church.The General Superintendent of the church who spoke in an interview with Everest Amaefule, addressed issues ranging from the crises in the church to the killings in different parts of the country. 

Okoroafor, the head of the Assemblies of God Church, Nigeria who also threatened to query any Pastor who hosts any comedians in the church, added;

It is lack of the presence of God that people now make up with comedians. How can I bring the ‘Night of One Thousands Laughs’ to the church? I am vehemently against that. If I see somebody do that in Assemblies of God, I will give him query. Why would you bring entertainers? It is lack of the presence of God. When you have sufficient presence of God, why would you go for those make-ups? The church is not an entertainment centre. It is a place where you go to worship God. Some people have derailed. So, if you don’t have entertainers, you will not come to my church again? Then, you are not a worshiper. Good worship and good songs are enough to inspire you. I vehemently condemn that and this is the position of the Assemblies of God, Nigeria.
