“People always ask me why Pastor Idowu is my guy and why I don’t drag him like others. We argue a lot, but this is what Christ would do. Even me, I dey learn. Baba parked his car to carry people wey dey inside flood,” he said in a video posted online.
He noted that the pastor’s move showed real Christian love and compassion, adding that kindness speaks louder than preaching.
