Olayode Juliana blows hot
Days after the Olympics opening ceremony caused an online stir, Olayode Juliana took to her Instagram page to bare her mind on the matter.
The Jenifa’s Diary star was greatly displeased and called the act an unacceptable one and a disrespect to people’s faith. According to her, Christians have kept quiet for too long, and it is the reason they are where they are.
Speaking further, the Toyo Baby actress said people from other faiths would have spoken up immediately and without hesitation, no matter how little the thing was that they found to be disrespectful to their religion.
She wrote:
“The world is constantly attacking/ disrespecting Christianity, in music, movies, on the news, on some TV shows and now sports. It is very disgusting and disrespectful! Whoever approved this for the Olympics opening ceremony should be checked.”
In her lengthy caption, Olayode noted that a child was also one of the drag queens who participated in the opening ceremony. She protested the use of children in such displays and added that we were in the last days.
In her words:
“Another thing that breaks my heart is that there’s a child among the drag queens. Whose child was that?LEAVE THE CHILDREN ALONE!!! Don’t drag them into your perversiion!!! What is going on with the world? What is this darkness? This is insane!
"I’m not surprised that this is happening, we live in the last days, prophecy must be fulfilled. May we not see the wrath of God, may God have mercy on them, and have mercy on the world.”
