Recall that a discussion about churches keeping seats for celebrities was raised on X (Twitter) by a lady who called the move a ‘razz’ one as she condemned preachers for giving famous people special treatment above their regular members.

Speaking further, the movie star compared pastors reserving seats for celebrities to people reserving seats at nightclubs or weddings.
Eluke asked if people would expect a governor to start dragging seats with regular people when they attend functions. She noted that honour should be given to whom it is due.
In her words:
“Things that people say use to shock me sometimes but this particular one shock me well well. You have a problem with churches reserving seats for celebrities or dignitaries? Ehnehn? So it’s a problem you leave your house by five o’clock you want to come and sit down in front in the place that they reserved for people? But you do your wedding and reserve seats for people that you want to sit in front. Why not let all those kpangolo people to sit in front in your wedding, why do reserve seats? You go to clubs and you reserve seats. Give honour to whom honour is due. So if governor comes to your function you want governor to go and be dragging seats because you came on time? Aunty sit down in that your house and you're early. There is nothing wrong in reserving seats for celebrities or dignitaries. ”
