Popular media personality and model, Uti Nwanchukwu, has said that if Jesus was a Nigerian, many would not have believed him because they feel only those who had money could speak sense.
His argument (SIC):
“The older I get in this country, the deeper I understand the story of Christ.

His own people killed HIM just because he spoke the truth to set them free o!
Of course the truth also threatened the business and political gains of the church?
We are no different in this country.
If Jesus was a Nigerian in this time, they would have labelled him a Jazz Man and enemy of progress.
Society would have put tires on him and burned him while exalting their Daddy and Mummy G.O’s that preach prosperity and threaten all who speak against them.
I hope the person/People wey do us this thing consistently turn in their graves until Nigerians are broken free from the chains of religious conditioning and spiritual blindness/Laziness!
You can deny the truth, hate it, attack it all you want, But life will always humble U to accept it at some point.
The new threat now is MONEY!
If Jesus was Nigerian in these times, majority would not have listened to him, cos in their heads, Na only who get money money fit tell them wetyn make sense.
How dare a poor man speak sense!
How dare a poor man teach us how to think & set our minds free!
Not thinking that if Jesus wanted to be the biggest Job man, He had the Charisma & Wisdom and influence to manipulate any and everyone, thereby making him one of the Richest In the World.
Instead he chose LOVE.
Wow! He was God, Yes but HE BECAME MAN! for us.
So if this country is ever going to change, It’ll have to start from how the average person here thinks and what they have been taught to respect.
If not the experience would have been recycled with every generation.
God help us.”
