Pastor David Ibiyeomie of Salvation Ministries in Port Harcourt has earned men against wearing dreadlocks.

According to him, such hairstyle cannot be found among presidents and billionaires.

This was as he revealed how a sermon he preached against dreadlocks changed the life of a man.

He told his congregation, "There is a young man in this church who is in his 50s now. He used to keep dreadlock. People talk to him; he used to plait his hair. He used to be a worldly musician.

“One day, he came and heard me talking that ‘have you seen a president wearing dreadlock?’ He said where he sat the thing hit him. ‘That means I am not ready to be a great person, I just want to be at a level’. So, he said he just went and cut his hair. So he said ‘sir, do you know how I cut my hair? Nobody preached to me’.” Ibiyeomie added:

“Among the top 20 billionaires in the world, none has dreadlocks, including Elon Musk. Not one billionaire in the world has dreadlock. “Dreadlock is for musicians because they have to have dreadlock to play music.

“Wordly basketballers, most of them did not go to school. No senator in the US has dreadlock. Even Arnold Schwarzenegger who was a film actor did not keep dreadlock as the governor of California."
