Following the conclusion of Nathaniel Bassey’s Hallelujah Challenge, a conversation arose about his YouTube channel not being monetized. A woman criticized him in a video for this decision. News reported that the discussion started when someone on X pointed out that Nathaniel’s YouTube page for the Hallelujah Challenge, which boasts over 2 million subscribers and millions of views, is not making money.
While many fans supported Nathaniel, Iziegbe Ogbeide expressed that his choice was not commendable. She argued that earning money is not immoral and that Nathaniel could have used the funds to assist those in need.
“Nathaniel can monetize channel to help people, it is not a thing to be celebrated,” she said.

In a related news, Nigerian media personality Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze, has sparked controversy with his recent criticism of Nathaniel Bassey’s Hallelujah Challenge.
The Hallelujah Challenge, which began in 2021, is an hour-long online session of praise and prayer led by gospel artist Nathaniel Bassey. It has garnered widespread attention, with many Nigerians sharing testimonies of how it has positively impacted their lives. During a recent Instagram live session, Daddy Freeze was discussing current events when a viewer suggested he participate in Nathaniel Bassey’s Hallelujah Challenge. Visibly upset by the comment, Daddy Freeze expressed his frustration, criticizing both the challenge and its participants.
He questioned the impact of the challenge on Nigeria, stating that it has not brought about any noticeable change. He also made it clear that such suggestions were not welcome on his platform. In a heated rant, Daddy Freeze accused Nathaniel Bassey of using the Hallelujah Challenge as a means to promote his personal brand, rather than for spiritual purposes. He urged people to pay attention to his own teachings instead, which he claimed would help them avoid excessive prayer.
In his words: “E no go better for anybody wey say he wan join Hallelujah Challenge, e no go beta for you and Hallelujah Challenge! Which stupid prayer dey on? God go punish you! Wetin concern me with Hallelujah Challenge? Since they’ve been challenging Hallelujah what has happened in Nigeria? No carry that nonsense come meet me o, just keep it away from here. Wetin dem dey use una build him brand! Hallelujah Challenge ko, Hosanna Challenge ni! If you listen to Daddy Freeze, you will need to challenge the Hallelujah less because I will teach you the common sense to have so you don’t need to pray 24/7. I’m here to teach you life experience! Una no dey like hear word.”
Daddy Freeze’s harsh remarks on Nathaniel Bassey’s Hallelujah Challenge have sparked mixed reactions across social media. While some individuals agreed with his stance, others defended the Christian program, praising the impact it has had on their spiritual lives.
