Nigerian crossdresser James Chukwueze Obialor, known as James Brown, who grabbed the spotlight following his attendance at a crossover church service.
This time, a particular incident during the service at Zion Ministry church in Lagos has stirred a wave of reactions online.
Initially, Brown’s presence at the church was noted for his viral dance moves, showcasing his vibrant spirit alongside Nollywood actress Destiny Etiko.
However, the narrative took a turn when Evang Ebuka Obi, the church’s founder, initiated prayers against the ‘Ogbanje spirit,’ a local belief in spirit possession. During this intense moment, the cameraman unexpectedly shifted focus to Brown, who was seen without his characteristic wig, igniting a flurry of discussions and debates among netizens.
Online reactions varied, with some netizens expressing outrage and disbelief. One user, mikkytorino, humorously suggested that,
