Pastor Paul Adefarasin Faces Backlash for Trump Rally Shooting Condemnation Amid Local Violence Criticism

Pastor Paul Adefarasin of House On The Rock Church faced intense backlash from Nigerians on social media after condemning the assassination attempt on former US President Donald Trump during a campaign rally.

Trump narrowly escaped a bullet to his ear in Pennsylvania, leading to mixed reactions globally. Adefarasin's statement, expressing condolences and condemning political violence in the US, drew criticism for alleged hypocrisy and silence on Nigerian political violence. Many Nigerians highlighted incidents during Nigeria's 2023 elections, accusing Adefarasin of selective outrage.

Reactions ranged from disappointment to accusations of cowardice, contrasting his outspokenness on US events with perceived silence on local issues.
