Renowned Nollywood actor Patrick Doyle has offered advice to gospel artists who feel disappointed by Tems’ recent win at the BET Awards for Best Gospel/Inspirational Song.
Tems, primarily known as an Afrobeats artist, surprised many Nigerians when her hit track “Me & U” won in a category traditionally dominated by established gospel artists. Despite facing competition from well-known names like Kirk Franklin and Halle Bailey, Tems emerged victorious.
Patrick Doyle addressed the controversy on his Facebook page, offering words of comfort to gospel artists who were hurt by the result.
He urged these artists to stop seeking approval from the entertainment industry, which he criticized as being “in the grip of Satan.”
His message read: “I feel the pain of mainstream gospel artistes who feel slighted that Tems, an evidently secular musician, was awarded the BET award for best gospel song. That said, I believe it’s about time that committed Christians stop seeking validation from fickle institutions like the entertainment industry mafia, which by the way is in the grip of Satan.”
