Leke Adeboye, the son of renowned Nigerian cleric Pastor E.A. Adeboye, has become a trending topic online after a video of his prayer for himself and his wife during their wedding anniversary celebration surfaced on social media.
The clip, which showed Leke making heartfelt — and somewhat unusual — prayer requests, quickly drew the attention of netizens across platforms.
While many praised his sincerity and humor, others had mixed feelings about the nature of the prayer points he raised. Some online users found his words refreshing and relatable, seeing them as a sign of an authentic relationship guided by faith. Others, however, analyzed his tone and content more critically, sparking debates about what is deemed appropriate in public prayers, especially from the son of one of Nigeria’s most influential pastors.
