Nigerian famous entertainer Charles Chukwuemeka Oputa, born 19th of June 1951, and popularly known as Charly Boy has recently shared his testimony about meeting Jesus.
In his words, he explained that Christians of the present days have failed to grow themselves spiritually as expected of them.
"My encounter with Jesus was the freakiest moment, and if you read the piece I wrote, it is just saying that God really wants us to be real but the Nigeria perception about Jesus and how it works is just too Nigerian for my liking."
He added interestingly, . "They look at Jesus/God as babalawo or the pastors make some sacrifices and bring some money and goats and all the problems will disappear."
"It doesn’t happen like that and these days people are not going to church to nurture their spirituality."

Reacting to a question concerning what Jesus instructed him to stop doing, Charly Boy said, "All those contrived stuff that Charly Boy did and not me as Mr. Oputa, they have been outgrown. So, I have left them for other people who want to continue the madness."
However, eyes are on him to see if he will change his weird lifestyles for a more formal identity.
