Nigerian singer Timi Dakolo has criticized Apostle Femi Lazarus for what he describes as hypocrisy after the cleric ridiculed the high charges demanded by gospel singers.
The controversy started when Apostle Lazarus, in a sermon, projected an alleged invoice from a gospel artist demanding a $10,000 honorarium, a 50% non-refundable deposit, a first-class flight, and premium accommodation. He argued that such financial expectations were excessive for the ministry.
