"However, I didn't feel the Holy Spirit's presence, as the party was inconsistent with pastoral values. As the founder of Salvation Proclaimers Anointed Church, Pastor Tobi Adegboyega's actions appeared unrighteous, embarrassing the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ," he wrote in part on Facebook.
He added that the pastor should have invited Gospel musicians instead of inviting the likes of Davido and KCee.
