In a striking and unanticipated moment during a livestream interaction with TikTok sensation Peller, controversial Nigerian-UK-based pastor Tobi Adegboyega admitted that he had once been a member of a secret society.

The revelation, captured on camera and widely shared, has sent shockwaves through social media and religious circles alike.

During the broadcast, Peller asked probing questions that appeared designed to dig deep into the pastor’s past.

In response, Adegboyega confessed not only to past substance use (smoking “igbo”) but also to having belonged to a secret society during his earlier years.

The pastor framed the admission as part of his personal journey, noting that these experiences occurred before his full commitment to ministry and public life.

Since the video’s release, social media platforms have been alight with debate.
