Prophet Joel Ogebe Says Christians Who Watch BBN Are Not Spiritually Mature

Nigerian preacher, Prophet Joel Ogebe, has stirred online debate after declaring that Christians who watch the reality TV show Big Brother Naija (BBN) lack spiritual maturity.

During a recent sermon, the prophet criticized believers who follow or support the show, arguing that its content is inconsistent with Christian values and principles. He noted that frequent engagement with such entertainment reveals a need for greater spiritual growth.

His remarks quickly went viral, sparking mixed reactions across social media. While some Christians agreed, calling the show morally questionable, others contended that spiritual maturity cannot be judged by one’s entertainment preferences.

Prophet Ogebe, known for his bold views on faith and morality, urged believers to focus on spiritual growth rather than worldly amusements and to exercise discernment in the kind of content they consume.

The statement has since reignited discussions within Christian communities about the balance between faith, entertainment, and personal conviction in today’s digital culture.
