In response to the controversial article written by the founder of Household of God Church, Chris Okotie, the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) has admonished the musician turned preacher telling him to manage his home properly and keep the bible principles of one man,one wife.

Pastor Okotie demanded for the resignation of the association's President, Ayo Oritsejafor over his alleged involvement in the controversial $9.3m smuggled into South Africa by two Nigerians and an Israeli.

Okotie had also said that Pastor Oritsejafor had disgraced CAN in several ways which can no longer be tolerated.

According to The Punch, the director of National Issues in CAN, Mr. Sunny Oibe in reaction to the demand said Okotie was looking for popularity through Oritsejafor.

He said, “Is Chris Okotie a Christian? How many wives has he?

"He should go and sort out himself. Even the government has exonerated Pastor Ayo of all the allegations. So, who is Okotie? Well, it is laughable if Chris Okotie should demand that Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor should resign as President of CAN.

“Chris Okotie should remove the log in his eyes before he begins to see a peck in somebody’s eyes. Pastor Ayo had a soaring integrity before he was elected the President of CAN. Who elected Chris Okotie to become the spokesperson of Christians in Nigeria?

“CAN will not like to join issues with Okotie because doing that will amount to making him popular. He is looking for popularity which he doesn’t have through Pastor Ayo and he is not going to get it.”
