A woman’s unusual prayer for a newborn during his naming ceremony has sparked outrage online.
In the viral video that has caused a massive stir on the internet, the child’s naming ceremony was underway when the woman officiating the ceremony said some words of prayer for the baby.

She placed a pen in the baby’s hand and prayed that the child would grow up to be one of the individuals who use their pen to embezzle funds in Nigeria.
“Akorede, I put this biro in your hand; amongst those that will use a pen to steal the money of Nigeria, your name will be there. If this baby become a governor or senator, it’s not an abomination”, she said.
The prayer sparked outrage and raised concerns about the acceptance of corruption as a norm in Nigeria.

“There is something called exaggerative expression in Yoruba language and most times if you’re not careful it can get you into trouble , she should have ended it at “you shall become governor” no need of the embezzlement, khai 💔.”
