According to a Ghanaweb report, the actor suggested that believing certain modern-day pastors is spiritually dangerous, likening it to 'playing hide-and-seek with the devil'.

"Some of you pastors are honestly embarrassing God, speaking what He never said and walking around with pride like it’s a virtue. No wonder so many believers now seek the face of Elohim for themselves. Trusting some pastors today feels like playing hide-and-seek with the devil," he wrote.
