Social media critic VeryDarkMan has reacted to a viral video showing actress Tonto Dikeh leading a deliverance session at a school, issuing a stern warning to the Nollywood star.

 

The controversy began after Dikeh shared a series of videos on Instagram on Friday, March 6, 2026, showing her participating in what she described as an evangelism outreach at a school.

 

According to the actress, she and her team had visited the school for evangelism and were preparing to leave when she sensed what she described as a “spirit of death” hovering around the environment, prompting the deliverance session.

 

Reacting to the development, VeryDarkMan criticised the act and cautioned the actress against repeating such activities in his community.

 

“With all due respect to Tonto Dikeh, this is a warning: do not come to my area to do this again. Na only poor man children good to test your powers. Leave my area kids alone,” he said.

 

He further argued that children in underprivileged communities should not be exposed to beliefs that attribute life struggles to spiritual attacks.

 

“We want to raise kids with real-life orientation, not an ideology that if you don’t make it, there is something following you from the village,” he added.

 

While acknowledging the importance of prayer, the social media commentator stressed that it should not replace hard work and practical efforts.

 

“Prayers are good; however, without work, prayers are not useful. Take your new content somewhere else. Leave ghetto kids alone,” he said.

 

The exchange has since sparked debate online, with social media users divided over the appropriateness of conducting deliverance sessions in school environments.
