‘If you had powers, your two wives would still be alive’ — VeryDarkMan replies Lazarus Muoka
VeryDarkMan, the controversial activist, has hit back at Lazarus Muoka, the general overseer of The Lord’s Chosen Charismatic Revival Ministries, for calling him out.
The church has been under scrutiny since clips of the members sharing their strange testimonies went viral on social media.
In a recent video, Muoka called out VeryDarkMan, saying he was told the activist “made negative comments about my church”.
The cleric alleged that the social media influencer said “Chosen members will learn the hard way”.
Mouka said he told the person “VeryDarkMan is learning something today in a hard way” — implying that the activist is in a difficult situation due to his remarks about Chosen.
Reacting via his Instagram page, VeryDarkMan questioned Muoka’s powers, citing his “wives’ mysterious deaths”.
The social media influencer also criticised the church testimonies, referring to them as “exaggerated and ridiculous”.
“If you had this power, your two wives would still be alive. In 2010 you lost your first wife, Joy Muoka and then again you lost your second wife, ‘Pastor Ngozi Muoka. You should have worn ‘They are chosen’ clothes on their body so they would not have died,” he said.
“… miracle happens but not in the way your church members explain. They are exaggerating it.”
It was gathered that Mouka’s first wife died in 2010. His second wife was said to have passed away in July last year. She was buried buried last month.

Enlarging your manhood doesn’t increase effectiveness, Sam Adeyemi tells men
Sam Adeyemi, the senior pastor of the Daystar Christian Center, has offered advice to men with concerns about their “small manhood”.
Addressing his congregation on Sunday, the clergyman emphasised that the physical size of manhood does not determine its effectiveness.
The 57-year-old shared a personal anecdote from his secondary school days, highlighting the absurdity of body comparisons.
Adeyemi also encouraged young men to focus on inner growth, self-acceptance, and meaningful relationships.
“One of the major pressures we have is body image problems. It’s terrible, this comparing of your body with mine. Setting standards on what the body should look like and then you find out you fell short. It is so bad,” he said.
“I went to an all-boys secondary school. I still remember the day some of my classmates, they went somewhere and by the time they came back, we now found out what they went to do. They went with a ruler to go measure their private parts and to compare.
“Nothing destroys self-image more than that. It is nonsense. If you are a young guy, let me encourage you because it is all over the internet now. Are they not there? Everywhere you look, you will see either medicine or one Chinese method of elongating your…
“It is a lie, it is not the length that matters but the effectiveness, the skills and love for the other person. So for God’s sake wait till you get married.
“If it is only one person you are doing it with, there will be no need comparing all over the place. Do not let them kill you.”
