The widely shared clip captured Adefarasin holding a metallic object while engaging with a passerby who appeared to be filming the scene. The footage sparked widespread speculation online, with many users claiming the object resembled a firearm.

In response to the viral claims, the cleric addressed his congregation through a message shared on his verified social media pages, dismissing suggestions that he had brandished a weapon.

He described the incident as a “misinterpretation,” clarifying that the item in question was not a gun and emphasizing that it was “never pointed at anyone.”
