Nigerian preacher Pastor Emmanuel Aniefiok Iren, who founded Celebration Church International, has stated that he changes his phone number every two years.
He informed his congregation about this choice during a sermon.
A portion of this sermon was shared on TikTok by @williamztv, where he provided two examples of people who called him without any real reason.
“Some people try to reach out to me, and in trying to reach out to me, they try to commonise what God is doing in my life now because they knew me those days.
“Someone called me from Ikotun Ekpe (laughs). True life story. Just randomly o…Called me. That’s how I’ve started changing my number every two years because of things like that.
“How are you? Fine. How’s everything? Fine. Can I help you? He said no.
“I just called so my friends will know I know you”.
“I said, ‘Wow!’ Nice one (laughs). Don’t trivialise relationships…”

ID Noble “But I dont think that’s bad in anyway though.”

“Funny how I was under this ministration 
I’ll never recover from the experience 
.”
Virgo 
“Their mouths will put them in trouble because he called you? really?”
oyenekanadebisi “What have you become bro? If Jesus had acted that way nobody will have access to him. This is a story for the Gods.”
@GT: On this, I differ o. You lumped too many things together here, Pastor. There is nothing wrong with people reaching out to you for knowing u before now. You will relate to them based on their levels
@midala EI: So disrespectful. Such behaviour should not be tolerated. And the same people will say it’s arrogance.
@Angel tx: Pride precedes a fall is all I can say. If Jesus entertained children who are we?
