“The two major customers of babalawos are clergymen and Islamic clerics” – Herbalist KingLade claims

Nigerian traditional spiritualist KingLade has claimed that Christian and Islamic religious leaders are among the biggest customers of babalawos.

Speaking during an appearance on the ClarityZone Podcast, KingLade alleged that some pastors and Islamic clerics secretly consult traditional spiritual practitioners despite their public religious affiliations.

“There are two key customers of a babalawo, and those are the clergymen and the Islamic clerics,” he said.

He further claimed that many shops selling materials used for traditional spiritual practices are operated by Yoruba Muslim women and are regularly visited by imams, Alfas, Wolis and pastors.

According to him, some pastors visit babalawos for spiritual assistance before returning to their churches to publicly give glory to Jesus.

KingLade, who revealed that he was raised in a Christian home by a pastor and a deaconess, also made sweeping allegations against churches and their leaders.

“Every church is a fraud syndicate. They all know what they are doing. Every pastor is a fraud,” he declared.

His claims were not accompanied by evidence establishing that the practices he described are widespread.
