Nigerian author Kachi Ohiaeri has gone viral after revealing on Facebook that a single question from her mother was enough to make her stop watching New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations (NSPPD), the widely followed early morning prayer broadcast led by Pastor Jerry Eze.
Writing on Facebook on July 12, 2026, Ohiaeri shared that the conversation with her mother brought her to a moment of honest self-reflection about why she had been tuning in to the programme in the first place. The author admitted that the question forced her to confront the true nature of her engagement with NSPPD.
The Question That Changed Everything
When her mother posed the pointed question, Ohiaeri stated she found herself unable to argue with it. Rather than defend her habit, she admitted openly that the programme was less about holiness or building a personal relationship with God and more about seeking miracles, with preaching playing only a secondary role.
"I told her we are the latter and preaching is a side," she wrote. That admission, she implied, was reason enough for her to step away from the broadcast entirely.
Nigerians Weigh In on NSPPD
The post drew a flood of reactions from Nigerians with sharply differing views on the programme. @Kelly Hassino commented: "Nigerians joke too much... I thought it was all cruise.. so people really believe that they can get 'healing and deliverance' from all that early morning noise and disturbances."
@Tejiri Annabel Kome said: "You wanted to stop before... not because of what your mum asked you. They preach on Sundays and pray from Mondays to Fridays." @Dianna Jimmy countered: "It was easy for you to stop because you don't know EL-ROI ??."
@Ntomchukwu Izuchukwu raised a theological point: "People, please explain to me, Jesus said he has defeated devil yet you all keep fighting devil everyday, the one jesus defeated on the so called cross is it different from the one you all are casting and binding everyday?" @Pedro Nduka simply noted: "She asked a very honest and straight question."
