Media personality, Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze, has sparked controversy by claiming that miracles in Nigerian Pentecostal churches are staged. He expressed his skepticism about the authenticity of these miracles, stating that they are only believable by "half-witts."

Daddy Freeze argued that the miracles performed by Jesus in the Bible were verifiable and involved well-known individuals, whereas Nigerian clerics have failed to perform similar miracles on public figures. He cited examples of prominent Nigerians, such as Dora Akunyili and Mr. Ibu, who were prayed for by various general overseers but were not healed.

Speaking on the Outside The Box podcast, Daddy Freeze emphasized that he does not have a problem with pastors but is skeptical about the miracles they claim to perform. He challenged them to provide proof of their miracles, saying, "Don't tell me you did miracles. I want proofs."
