Daddy Freeze blames religion, misplaced priorities for hindering Nigerians’ progress
Media personality Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze, has said that religion and misplaced priorities remain major factors preventing Nigerians from realising their full potential.
Speaking in a recent interview with Chude Jideonwo on YouTube, Daddy Freeze criticised the excessive religiosity of many Nigerians, arguing that most churches fail to inspire genuine transformation among their members.
“Ten churches on a street, no love,” he said, describing the situation as a reflection of spiritual hypocrisy in society.

He also referenced chef Hilda Baci’s Guinness World Record-breaking cook-a-thon, praising her determination but questioning the crowd that gathered to watch her.
“I understand Hilda Baci cooking the rice. I understand her trying to break a record. I appreciate that. I respect that. I support that. But you left your house to go and watch somebody cook rice. That part, I don’t understand,” he said.
Freeze said that while it would have made sense if around 2,000 people attended, the turnout of over 20,000 Nigerians revealed misplaced priorities.
He urged citizens to channel their energy and enthusiasm into productive activities that would contribute to both personal growth and national development.

BBNAIJA S10: Faith’s disqualification justified – Tacha
Former Big Brother Naija housemate, Tacha, has expressed support for the disqualification of Faith Adewale from the ongoing BBNaija Season 10, stressing the need to respect the Head of House (HOH)’s position.
In an interview with TVC News, Tacha said, “As much as they say respect is reciprocal, you demand respect, but when e reach your turn, you no wan give respect.”
She noted that Faith, who had previously served as HOH several times, should have extended the same courtesy when another housemate, particularly a woman, held the position.

“You have been HOH a couple of times; now it’s a woman being HOH. At least as much as everyone respects you, it does make sense for you to respect that office,” she added.
Faith was disqualified on October 2, 2025, after engaging in a physical altercation with fellow housemate Sultana during a skincare task rehearsal.
The confrontation left Sultana with a twisted ankle and hand injury.
Big Brother Naija’s organisers described Faith’s conduct as a breach of the show’s rules against physical violence and ordered her immediate removal from the house.
