Award-winning Nigerian soul singer Timi Dakolo has expressed astonishment after discovering that individuals pay money to spiritual leaders and clerics in exchange for prophetic declarations.

Taking to his social media page, the vocalist posted a candid reaction questioning the commercialization of divine revelations and spiritual guidance.

In a post shared on X, Dakolo wrote "So Una Dey pay for prophesy.. As in pay person for prophesy.. Like give person money to tell una wetin God Dey talk?"

His post quickly went viral across digital platforms, sparking a broad online conversation regarding religious practices, spiritual exploitation, and the monetization of faith in contemporary society.

While several social media users resonated with his disbelief—pointing out that spiritual grace should not carry a price tag—others noted that commercialized prophetic services remain a widespread practice across various religious organizations.

The practice of charging fees for consultation, "seed-sowing," or personal prophetic declarations has long been a subject of public debate across West Africa, often drawing criticism from mainstream religious leaders and social commentators advocating for spiritual accountability.
