"If I was the drummer drummer I will stand up and not come back again to that auditorium ….but I am a keyboardist so this can never happen … me and the pastor are always together in the spirit."

"Why didn’t y’all tell Jesus to go apologize to those selling and buying at the temple coz there’s better way to handle the issue… There is something called submission in spirituality."

"One of the problem with our generation is that we hate rebuke. If your boss talks to you like this, will you quit your job? You won’t even say a word but if it’s church. We will walk out."

"Some times my pastor doesn’t like us playing when he is doing some certain spiritual things but he doesn’t speak in that manner, instead he just say thank you instrumentalists; we know to stop."

Sinach said:

"I am a drummer, I understand what the drummer there was trying to do,there’re sounds to make during a prophetic session but the drummer made the wrong sound.A mild crash of cymbals would have been."
