A viral video showing Pastor Paul Adefarasin’s luxury convoy has sparked national debate and unexpected goodwill. The video, filmed by a young car enthusiast in Lagos, drew attention after viewers claimed a firearm was brandished. The man behind the camera, who later shared his side of the story during an Instagram Live with Daddy Freeze, insisted he maintained a respectful distance and could not confirm what the pastor was holding.
Moved by the creator’s dedication and poor living conditions—he lives in darkness and dropped out after secondary school—Daddy Freeze rallied support from his followers. Within hours, ₦350,000 was raised under the #FreeTheSheeple banner, aimed at helping the young man find stability and pursue his passion for car-spotting.
Pastor Adefarasin addressed the incident in church, firmly denying the firearm allegations and accusing critics of chasing attention with false claims. He described the backlash as misleading and unfounded, while reactions across social media remained deeply divided.
