A video of Pastor Jimmy Odukoya and Nollywood actor Tobi Bakre has gone viral, evoking a range of responses on the internet.
In the video, the Nollywood actor surprised the congregation and the pastor by paying an unexpected visit to Pastor Jimmy's Fountain of Life Church in Ilupeju, Lagos.
Tobi Bakre was greeted and honored at the service by Pastor Jimmy, who is the son of the late Pastor Taiwo Odukoya and a preacher as well as a former actor.
The pastor invited Tobi Bakre to the altar in a playful moment, and what followed caught everyone off guard.
Both the congregation and Pastor Jimmy were taken aback when Tobi Bakre playfully lifted him off the ground. Social media users have differing opinions about the unexpected act.
The gesture was deemed improper for a religious environment by some viewers, while others thought it was humorous and a sign of a close friendship.
In contrast to netizen's reactions, Pastor Jimmy who appeared unbothered, posted the video with the amusing caption, “@tobibakre oh, My prayer for everyone is that God will carry you like this month in Jesus name!.”
