  • Bolaji Idowu’s crossover photos with entertainers spark fresh ‘church vs culture’ clash

    Bolaji Idowu’s crossover photos with entertainers spark fresh ‘church vs culture’ clash

    Reporting by Legit.ng indicates Pastor Bolaji Idowu drew mixed reactions after sharing crossover service photos that included popular entertainers.

    In his response, he argued the outrage misses the point of church as a place for restoration, not exclusivity.

    The moment has reopened the conversation about how Nigerian churches engage youth culture and celebrity influence.

    • Legit.ng (quoted response): ““Church is not a Museum but a Healing Centre.””
    • X post recaps the appearance: ““Peller makes his first public appearance… as he spends the New Year…””

    Echotitbits take: This is bigger than photos—it’s a battle over relevance and reach. Watch whether the pastor, the church, or the celebrities involved follow up with clearer context or additional posts that either cool or intensify the debate.

  • Odumeje’s ‘kabush kabash’ 2026 prophecy becomes a New Year meme factory

    Odumeje’s ‘kabush kabash’ 2026 prophecy becomes a New Year meme factory

    2026-01-02 09:00:00

    In an update reported by TheCable Lifestyle, controversial cleric Odumeje declared 2026 a year of “kabush kabash,” a phrase that instantly jumped from crossover service theatrics to social feeds.

    The slogan is already being remixed into captions, soundbites, and memes—classic Nigeria-in-January internet behavior.

    But it also revives the recurring argument about performative preaching and the influence economy that thrives on viral ministry moments.

    • NigerianEye (Outlet): “2026 is a year of kabush kabash.”
    • Instagram reel caption (Instagram): “2026 is a year of Dabush Kabash.”

    Echotitbits take: Odumeje-style virality sits at the crossroads of religion, entertainment, and influencer culture—where a single soundbite can dominate the week. If you treat it as pure comedy, it spreads faster; if you treat it as serious prophecy, it can shape narratives. Watch next for mainstream pushback, platform amplification, or further ‘crossover’ clips that keep the meme alive.

    In a crossover-service clip referenced by TheCable Lifestyle, Odumeje proclaimed “2026 is a year of kabush kabash,” describing the coming months as spiritual warfare.

    The moment has since been reposted widely, feeding meme culture and comment-section debates.

    • TheCable Lifestyle: “2026 is a year of kabush kabash”
    • TikTok repost (linked via TheCable): “address[ing] his congregation during the crossover service”

    Echotitbits take: Odumeje’s catchphrases routinely become internet slang. The watch item is whether the trend stays lighthearted, or triggers renewed backlash over the tone and implications of “spiritual warfare” messaging.
