Rev Esiri should take his criticism to his personal page
A Christian expressed displeasure in Rev Esiri's criticism of people from the church altar.
"Esiri on his own is always judging and condemning, like his spiritual father, Apostle Arome. My only issue with all these is the platform they use in all of these clapbacks. They should do it on their personal pages or in their podcasts, not gather people who came to fellowship in church and hear the word to be condemning and judging other people," he said.
