The comment, “Adeboye and Kumuyi may be next; most Yoruba men of God do this,” is both prejudiced and misleading. It takes the wrongdoing of one individual and unfairly extends it to respected Yoruba pastors and the entire ethnic group. Such statements promote harmful stereotypes, fostering ethnic and religious division rather than addressing the actual crime. The arrest of the wanted general overseer for cannabis trafficking should focus on his personal actions, not be used to tarnish the reputation of innocent individuals or communities. Linking unrelated pastors to criminal activity without evidence is defamatory and fuels distrust.
