Suleman's warning to pastors against low-value content

Speaking directly to clergymen in his audience, Apostle Suleman drew a distinction between casual laughter and the sustained consumption of skit content. He argued that while watching comedians may seem harmless, routinely feeding on entertainment that does not challenge the mind carries real consequences.

"That thing does not only pollute your spirit, it kills your IQ. It kills your developmental capacity. You, when you watch things that are below your mind, your IQ drops," he said.

He urged his listeners to be more deliberate about the content they consume, stressing the importance of material that is both mentally stimulating and spiritually uplifting. According to him, people who scroll through comedy skits from morning to night are unknowingly stunting their own growth.

"You have to watch things that task your mind, things that are inspirational," he added.
