Kris Okotie owns all the land and buildings on that
street .His Church shares the same fence with Chris Oyakhilome’s Christ Embassy
Headquarters.
Arriving Church was
easy.. I made my way into the Church after the normal searching at the gate.
The first thing that will hit you, were the bouncers, whose chest were as huge
as bags of cement, even the devil in his wisdom dare not make a move near that
Church at this time.
The inside
speaks of the taste of the man, sparkling, well decorated to taste.
Parked outside
was not his new Rolls Royce but another Mercedes Benz Limousine with customized
plate number.
As it is
customary, my seat must be beside a fine babe. Kai, they were not in short
supply at Household. Infact this Church has the highest concentration of fine
babes that i have ever seen in any Church.
Kris Okotie must
have selected them himself. The organizers of Most Beautiful Girl in Nigeria
will envy what i saw today.
Kris Okotie can
successfully organize ten good pageants with what he has in that Church.He even
said ,they accuse him of marrying fair babes.
See
shape,tall,short,dark,fair,half caste see catwalk, see stepping, see mini
skirts, see fine steps, see clean smooth skins. See nails,i say come see cloth.
Brazillian hair,no be that type wey all those Lagos babes dey do under Ikeja
bridge.
It was like a
competition.
Abeg if you no
get designer clothes ,shoes, bags etc no come Household, because, dem go think
say you be steward or waitress.
After taking my
seat, beside my lovely damsel,i quickly adjusted my lens and snap some pictures
while people were settling down.
Within minutes,a
very huge guy that will make Hulk Horgan look like a baby wrestler walked up to
me asking me to follow him.
My heart
sank,wetin i do now..who i offend,who send me make i come Kris Okotie’s
Church..Na today i go see wetin my eyes dey look for.

| Kris Okotie's Church On the day of my visit |
I asked my
latest catch to kindly look after my seat while i followed the guy outside
On getting
there,i was shocked by what the Chief bouncer said..”CKN ,we know you. We ve
monitored you since you entered this Church. We don’t allow any camera work or
taking of pictures in this Church or premises.. Please let me see the pictures
you just snapped ,because our CCTV camera caught you taking pictures”..Who wan
argue with this kin person..i opened my folder and showed him the singular
picture on the folder..He asked me to delete it..which i did..His next
words,”As i said CKN ,we like your job and what you are doing, just relax and
have a nice service with us at Household, God bless,you can go back in but no
more pictures please”
I was relieved, from that moment, i just respected Kris
Okotie and his security agents, these guys were not being paid for nothing.
On resuming my
seat,my concentration now focused on the Service of songs which was being led
by a lady..it lasted for close to an hour before the man of the moment finally
came in, ushered in and surrounded by six huge bouncers,the type that will make
Goodluck jonathan’s guys look like kindergatens.
He made straight
for the pulpit.Three of the bouncers took their positions in front of the
alter, just like you saw in that picture that was in circulation last week.
Okotie looks
more like a pop star than a pastor.He has not changed one bit from what i saw
of him about ten years ago..His jerry curled hair was shinning.He wore a golden
colour Jacket with black patches over a black trouser.You will mistake him for
one of those Hollywood actors.
Immediately he
picked the mic,he went into solo songs..Okotie does not have a choir or back up
singers. He is the Choir,Choir master and chorister all put in one.His is the
only Church i have visited that does not have a choir.
He was moving
from one song to another, for over one hour he didn’t stop.
I was forced to
ask the babe beside me,if it was a service or Song festival. She didnt even
bother to answer me, all she was saying was give it to me,give it to me
Pastor,i can feel it ,give it to me as she sang along..Haaa,give it to you.give
you what i asked..
She took a long
look at me and continued in her frenzy,i say give it to me my pastor.Oti o.
This is another
level,since i didnt want to be left behind,as Okotie was singing i joined her
in saying,Give it to us,give it to us pastor,give it to us oooooo.biko give
us,give her,give me too lalalalalala.
The lady
suddenly stopped and pinched my hand .Keep quiet,you are not singing like
someone that is in the spirit she told me.I asked her what she meant,after all
i just wanted pastor Kris to give it to us and you are asking me to keep quiet.
Please give it
to you us,infact kill us Pastor i continued
By now she had
kept quiet and was watching me.

| CKN at the entrance of Household Of God |
The whole church
was in a frenzy,estatic ,singing and dancing.all dance steps were on
display,skelewu,konkon below,kukere,name it,even apala dance join.ewooooo
Some were
jumping up and down like people possessed by spirit. Some were even running
from one end of the auditorium to another.
The beautiful
ones that occupied all the front rows,stood up and were dancing close to the
alter,as if to say Man Of God,we are still available o.
But Kris Okotie
must have been used to it because, he no even look their side. He was singing
in languages that i never understood.
I even saw a
popular actress among them
After over an
hour of singing,Okotie now prayed for two nations,Nigeria and Israel (why
Isreal,i don’t know) but i heard those were the two countries he prays for
weekly.
After the prayer
which lasted for about five minutes, he entered gear two,he kpet on
sining,singing,singing and sing.
Haba,which kain
Church be this nah,no wonder all these people are trooping here,they came to
see Okotie perform every week, definitely not his preaching.
After he must
have satisfied himself, he now settle down to speak on the birth of Jesus Chris
and the three wisemen that came to visit Joseph and Mary.
It’s was easier
to understand Patrick Obhiagbon and Wole Soyinka than listening to kris..At a
point i i asked the babe beside me what Kris just said,she said she didnt
know,i then asked how,how come you were shouting Praise the Lord.
She told me that
i just have to accept what he is saying with open minds without questioning.na
him i tell am say ok,i hear.
The average age
at the Church was 40 years.
Kris Okotie has
die-hard converts who from all indications are ready to do anything for him. he
is to them,a role model of a sort.
The babes are
well polished. Not the type you see at most of these orthodox churches like
Anglican and Roman Catholic.
Okotie went on
to say, Love without Money is not complete.
According to
him, shower a woman with money and see how she ll cherish you for life.To
him,love is not enough.it must be backed with money and big time gifts.
According to him,that is why he buys the latest expensive cars.
When i asked the
babe beside me who don dey already squeeze my hand whether she believe that,
she said ofcourse,i can’t go out with a guy that cannot take care of my needs.
Who is not ready to change my car every other year
With that i kuku
gradually remove my hand, before the girl go collect my car key and i come take
leg waka go house.
She asked me if
anything was wrong i told her no, that i was just feeling dizzy and would need
some fresh air outside.
To add to my
stress, Kris Okotie now shared free birthday cakes for people born in different
months of 2014 (yap 2014).
He only shared
it among ladies; no single guy was allowed to pick a cake.
He also
conducted quiz among us, he only allowed women to answer the quiz and each of
them were given cakes and gifts.
Of the over 20
gifts Kris Okotie gave away today,no single man or guy was given any.
He said his
gifts were ONLY for women.
At that point, i
knew i have over stayed my welcome. I told the babe that i wanted to go and
take some fresh air outside; from there i disappeared and drove off.
It’s obvious
that Kris Okotie and his babes still have a lot in common.
If you need fine
babes,go to Household..If you need superlative Music,Kris Okotie will give you
several doses, but if you need serious preaching, i doubt if Pastor Kris Okotie
will be my first Church,maybe because of the big big grammar and effizy.

ReplyDeleteThe man showed you a pic of the huge bouncers the man of the gods has in his church n you are there calling dis piece a fabrication you must b sleeping on a wtransformer, LMFAO @ the narration
ReplyDeleteBouncers!!!!! They must be his apostles.
ReplyDeleteI had always wondered why GOD loved and blessed King David regardless his numerous flaws, until I read the book of psalms continuously and realized that David knew how to praise GOD! This is the same secret weapon Okotie is using regardless his several flaws, because a certain level of Grace is upon him. Though, I sincerely don't approve nor condone his lifestyle as a MOG, but GOD who works in mysterious ways, knows best.
ReplyDeleteMoreover, the power of music can be seen in the bible, where David would be ask to play the Harp for King Saul when he is one of his foul rage moods, and the demon tormenting
him then would leave, giving him peace, until another relapse.
When we praise GOD with all sincerity, HE turns our predators into preys, because HE inhales the praises of HIS people like a sweet fragrance.
I also enjoyed a fun visit to Household once. I should go again. It's more beautiful than you showed, but the humour is right on. What I wrote
