Pastor Tobi Adegboyega Responds to Druski’s Viral Mega Church Skit, Sparks Debate on Ministry and Wealth
Nigerian-born UK pastor Tobi Adegboyega has publicly responded to a viral skit by comedian Druski, sparking widespread discussion about faith, comedy, and the role of wealth in modern ministry.
The skit, titled “Mega Church Pastors LOVE Money,” poked fun at prosperity gospel preachers and their methods of requesting donations from congregants. Released on January 13, 2026, the video quickly went viral, amassing over 638,000 likes and countless reactions across social media platforms.
In response, Pastor Adegboyega addressed the satire during one of his sermons. He criticized Druski and others he described as “fat people” for targeting churches in comedic content. The pastor said, “The stingiest pastor gives more than the greatest rapper,” suggesting that the generosity of pastors is often overlooked.
The pastor’s reaction ignited a mixed response online. Some users defended pastors, agreeing that comedians sometimes exaggerate for humor, while others argued that the skit highlighted real issues in some ministries. Critics also pointed to Pastor Adegboyega’s own displays of wealth, including a gold microphone and arriving in a Ferrari, noting the irony of his reaction to the skit.
This exchange has reignited broader conversations about wealth, transparency, and performance in ministry. Many Nigerians and observers are debating how pastors balance faith and finances and whether satire can serve as constructive criticism.
Social media continues to buzz with opinions. Some users praised Druski for shedding light on a trend in modern churches, while others defended Pastor Adegboyega, emphasizing the importance of faith and charitable work over public perception.
The incident shows that comedy, religion, and public perception often collide in Nigeria and abroad, especially when viral content addresses sensitive topics like ministry wealth and social responsibility.
As discussions continue, both the skit and Pastor Adegboyega’s response remain trending, reflecting the ongoing debate over faith, satire, and the role of wealth in religious leadership.
