Popular Nigerian Evangelist’s Daughter Raises Storm Over Birthday Post

Nigerian evangelist Helen Ukpabio has found herself at the center of a social media storm following a hot exchange between her ‘daughter’ and a critic in the trail of the celebration of her 60th birthday.

A post acknowledging the birthday milestone reignited debates about Helen Ukpabio teachings on witchcraft, leading to heated exchanges online.

Helen Ukpabio, founder of the Liberty Foundation Gospel Ministries in Calabar, Cross River State, has in the past been accused of some controversial teachings that have reportedly led to her ban from the UK.

The situation escalated after musician Bloody Civilian criticized Ukpabio in response to the birthday post, accusing her of promoting doctrines that encourage child abuse. Ima Elijah, Ukpabio’s daughter, quickly came to her mother’s defense, threatening to sue Bloody Civilian if the post was not retracted within five hours.

The exchange grew more intense, with Bloody Civilian standing firm, citing reports from human rights organizations and documentaries that have condemned Ukpabio’s teachings. Ima Elijah dismissed these criticisms, questioning the credibility of the sources cited, including Sahara Reporters.

The incident has set the social media abuzz, with many users weighing in on the impact of Ukpabio’s teachings. Critics have pointed to cases of child stigmatization linked to her ministry, while her defenders argue she has been unfairly targeted.
