Renowned gospel artiste, Bidemi Olaoba, recently issued apologies to white garment churches following a video that stirred controversy on social media platforms. In an interview with Pastor Leke Adeboye during a TV live show, Olaoba expressed reluctance to perform in churches using scents and burning incense. However, he later clarified his stance, emphasizing his belief in the universality of the gospel and regretting any misunderstanding caused by his previous remarks.

Olaoba stressed that the church mentioned in the video was not a white garment church, contrary to misconceptions. He urged viewers to watch the full video on YouTube to grasp the context accurately and dispel any insinuations of division within the body of Christ.

Highlighting his connections with the Celestial Church of Christ (CCC), Olaoba affirmed his respect for the body of Christ and his performance at the significant Lully Concert organized by the CCC. He urged the public to disregard any insinuations of division within the body of Christ, reaffirming his commitment to serving as a vessel for praise and unity.

However, stakeholders in the Celestial Church of Christ Worldwide reacted swiftly to his comments, condemning them and urging members to unfollow him on social media platforms. The backlash from some members of the church underscores the sensitivity of the issue and the importance of respecting diverse religious practices.

Olaoba's remarks, although initially controversial, sparked a broader conversation about religious tolerance and understanding within the Christian community. Despite the backlash, Olaoba remains committed to his message of unity and inclusivity within the body of Christ.
