Nigerian filmmaker Patrick Doyle has made a controversial statement, alleging that the entertainment industry is under Satan’s control. His comment comes after Tems, a secular musician, won the Best Gospel Award at the 2024 BET Awards, sparking debate among gospel artists.
Doyle expressed sympathy for mainstream gospel musicians who feel betrayed but cautioned them against seeking validation from the industry, which he believes is controlled by Satan. He urged committed Christians to seek validation from a higher power instead.
Tems’ win has sparked a heated discussion in the music industry, with some criticizing the BET Awards for their decision.
