Popular gospel musician Broda Sammy is calling for an end to the marginalization of young people with perceived "ungodly" lifestyles in churches. Instead, he urges churches to show love and acceptance.
Broda Sammy's recent gospel drill music video, featuring individuals from “ghetto” communities, has sparked lively discussions on social media.
In a recent interview on Onua TV, Broda Sammy shared his concerns about the treatment of marginalised individuals including those with tattoos and piercings in churches.
He noted that society often views people from the ghetto as "ungodly," leading to discriminatory behaviour.
"They're treated with disdain, ignored, or judged when they attend church services," Broda Sammy said. "But we need to show them love, understanding, and compassion.
“I intentionally visited the ‘ghetto’ because a lot people think that people from the ghetto don’t have pure hearts. I think it’s time we allow everyone to come to church and before God. Those with tattoos, piercings etc.
“We don’t have to marginalize these boys and girls and prevent them from coming to church,” he said on Onua Maakye, October 4.
The outspoken gospel musician further argued that men with piercings and tattoos must not be tagged as “ungodly” as “it is not a sin.”
He is currently promoting his new single “Ebebam,” which has been a subject for discussion after he filmed the gospel drill music video with “people from the ghetto.”
