Pastor Urges Congregation to Use Juju and Unconventional Methods to Protect Against Attacks
A viral TikTok clip has sparked controversy after a man identified as Pastor Oloruntimilehin Daramola delivered a fiery sermon urging his followers to “get fortified” by any means necessary.
The video, posted on a TikTok account believed to be his, @kingbosoro, shows the cleric dressed in a purple robe and cap, wearing a cross chain. However, his identity, the authenticity of the page, and the date of the sermon have not yet been independently verified.
Introducing himself as the Founder of The Omnipotence Mission of God, Daramola told his congregation to take drastic steps to defend themselves from armed attackers. He also demanded that the Federal Government legalise widespread gun ownership so Nigerians can “protect themselves without fear.”
In the clip, he urged members to adopt whatever method they believe will stop attackers in their tracks. “Go and do something that can protect you. If they come with guns, they should end up shooting themselves,” he declared. He went on to suggest extreme and unconventional tactics, including using bees to chase criminals or rendering attackers “dead before they reach your church.”
He warned that any member who refuses to follow his instructions will be expelled: “I will not allow my members to die. Any of my members who refuses to get fortified will be chased away.”
Daramola claimed he cannot remain protected while his congregation stays vulnerable. He referenced previous attacks on churches, arguing that crying out to Jesus did not save victims: “In Owo, some people shouted Jesus. He could save them, but He said, ‘We will meet in heaven.’ The same happened in Kaduna.”
He also boasted of having branches “in America, London, and Nigeria,” and invited people to meet him privately for “the right steps to take.” Addressing criticism, he said, “If they like, call me a charm pastor. I don’t have powers, but if you put me on the ground, I will bite you.”
The video has since drawn widespread reaction online. His comments emerged at a time when communities across Nigeria are battling unrelenting security crises, including fatal church attacks, mass abductions, and raids on schools.
Recent examples include the June 2022 massacre at St. Francis Catholic Church in Owo, Ondo State; the November 2025 shooting and mass kidnapping at Christ Apostolic Church in Eruku, Kwara State, where 38 abducted worshippers were later freed; and the abduction of over 300 students and staff at St. Mary’s Catholic School in Papiri, Niger State, where many victims remain missing.
