‘I’ll do more, dreads if it pains you’ — Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo fires back at critics over tattoo

Founder of the David Christian Centre and popular relationship coach, Pastor Kingsley Okonkwo, has dismissed criticism over his tattoo, insisting that he would do more and even wear dreadlocks if the public is pained by it.

Speaking in a viral video, Okonkwo said he intended to do even more, adding that he might eventually wear dreadlocks.

“I will do more. I might even do dreads. There is a pastor in Lagos who has dreadlocks and even tattoos. Are you out of touch? Do you think the younger generation is as boring as you?”

He questioned why tattoos were considered wrong, asking critics to clearly explain their objections.

“What makes a tattoo wrong? Someone painted their hand.

“Women who do microblading and makeup—are those not tattoos?

“The henna Hausa people use during marriage ceremonies, when they paint their hands, is that not a tattoo?” he asked.

Okonkwo also lamented that, despite pressing national issues and an approaching election, attention was being focused on his personal appearance.

“With all the national issues going on and the election just days away, people are making a fuss about my tattoo.

“The election is in a few days, the people owning the country have started planning, and the youths are bothered about my tattoo. I will do more; if it is paining you, go and get juice,” he said.
