Tobi Bakre’s Altar Lift: Lighthearted or Inappropriate?
Written by MAX FM on October 21, 2024
Nollywood actor Tobi Bakre has stirred up a conversation online after a viral video showed him lifting Pastor Jimmy Odukoya during a church service.
The video captures Tobi’s surprise visit to Pastor Jimmy’s church, where the pastor, son of the late Pastor Bimbo Odukoya, invited him to join him at the altar.
The playful moment happened when Tobi, after receiving a warm welcome, lifted Pastor Jimmy off the ground, which quickly drew a variety of reactions.
Some viewers found the interaction delightful and a testament to their friendship, while others questioned if such behaviour was fitting for a church setting.
Pastor Jimmy shared the clip with a lighthearted caption: “@tobibakre oh ?? My prayer for everyone is that God will carry you like this month in Jesus’ name! ???”
The video has sparked a debate on social media, with many praising the genuine bond between the two men. However, others raised concerns about the need to balance playfulness and respect in a religious context.
