According to her, the intense style of prayers on the platform reminds her of experiences from her childhood, making it difficult for her to remain engaged during prayer sessions.
Oragwa said she grew up in a home where her parents frequently moved from one prayer house to another, adding that the experience left lasting memories that are triggered by similar styles of worship.
She wrote that although she meant no offence to Pastor Jerry Eze or members of the prayer platform, she had joined NSPPD a few times but could not continue because the format reminded her of those childhood experiences.
"I am searching for prayer channels to join for morning prayers. My morning prayer life has been poor lately and I need a prayer channel I can join.
"Prayer channels like NSPPD, but not the fire fire type. I don't want NSPPD because Pastor Jerry's prayer style gives me PTSD (no offence). Joined a couple of times and just couldn't keep up.
"Born and brought up in a home where my parents went from one prayer house to another, the fire fire style makes me feel like I am reliving my childhood trauma," she wrote.
