Nigerian singer, Victor Adere popularly known as Victor AD, has countered the BBC’s three-part episode documentary accusing the founder of Synagogue Church of All Nations, Temitope Balogun Joshua aka TB Joshua, of performing staged miracles and torturing, abusing and traumatising his members.

Victor AD, on Wednesday, via a tweet on his X handle claimed that his family has been attending SCOAN since he was six and healed of a skin disease.

He also noted that TB Joshua restored his mum’s hand which was supposed to be amputated due to a gunshot wound and his sister who was healed from blindness during secondary school days.

The “wetin we gain” crooner wrote, “Prophet TB Joshua fake ke?

“Person wey God use heal me from skin disease at the age of 6 (sic) restored my mum’s hand that was supposed to be amputated due to gunshot wound, or is it my sister that got healed from blindness during her primary school days.

“So many wonderful deeds!! Which of these are fake or staged? When my family and I were homeless he gave us shelter and fed us. God is not a man.”

Being unconvinced by the allegations, Victor AD said, “Say whatever you like. E no go change God from being God (sic).”

Meanwhile, a viral video has shown the moments Victor AD was trying to heal the mother in a video call after he got what he described as “anointing water” from the church and spraying it on the screen of his phone while screaming “Be healed” upon sighting his mother’s “injured hand”.

Crayon narrates how he was admitted to psychiatric hospital due to depression

Crayon, the Nigerian singer, has recalled how he was admitted to a psychiatric hospital due to depression.

The singer, in an interview with YouTuber Korty EO, narrated that he was depressed in 2020 after none of his released songs gained traction.

He said the situation affected him mentally, made him start “acting out crazily” and eventually hospitalised.

Crayon also recounted how singer Rema and his label Mavin Records’ boss Don Jazzy were there for him during his trying times.

He said he became suicidal “at some point, I wanted to jump out of a moving car. It was that crazy. It was similar to Mohbad’s situation”.

“I went to a beach house party where we were chilling then I started reacting somehow,” he said.

“My manager noticed and I asked if I took anything. I told him I only took weed.

“I started acting out crazily so I returned home immediately and Facetimed Rema. All of a sudden, I started walking on the street and walked to Mavin Studios barefooted.

“I feel like I am God’s favorite because nobody recorded me, if I was filmed, it would have affected my confidence and career.

“So I got to the gate of Mavin Records, sat on the floor and said I was tired. I took off my shirt and smashed my phone.

“Calls started coming in and I kept saying I was really tired. Rema came, I lied on his lap and he said once I pass this stage, I will come out and this is the final battle I’m about to fight.

“I could not recognise anybody but I remember that word. At a point, I wanted to jump out of a moving car. It was that crazy. It was similar to Mohbad’s situation.

“I literally lost my mind, fighting wars nobody could see just you. So they took me to one of the psychiatric hospitals in Lekki, Lagos.

“After everything, I came back and went to Jazzy’s house but I was still not myself. I had the right people around, they didn’t publicise it but protected me.

“I have never seen my friends pray that deep. So to me Mavin is not just a label to me, it is everything to me. They took care of me in my darkest time.”

Crayon further said his career turned positive after overcoming the situation.

“When I got back I completely changed. I started seeing people differently, loving life more,” he added.

“I feel it is just God letting me know He got me. Then it was hit songs back to back, ‘Won da mo’, ‘Ijo Labalaba’”
