BBNaija star KimOprah has ignited widespread discussion online after expressing concern over how modern church services are increasingly shaped by cameras and social media content.
In a post shared on X on Thursday, she reflected on what she described as “the old days,” when emotional and vulnerable moments during worship remained private between worshippers and God, rather than becoming material for public consumption.
According to her, the growing presence of cameras during services has changed the atmosphere of worship, with personal encounters now frequently captured and shared online. She remarked that cameras are often “slammed in your face,” turning what should be sacred moments into social media content.

Her comments resonated with many users on X, who shared similar experiences of feeling self-conscious during worship because of the possibility of being filmed without notice. Several said they simply want the freedom to dance, cry, or pray without the fear of appearing in a church video circulated online.
Others added that the situation creates a dilemma for church media teams, who are tasked with documenting services for outreach and engagement, yet often face complaints from members who feel uncomfortable being featured.
However, not everyone agreed with KimOprah’s position. Some users argued that churches that prioritize privacy still exist and that individuals can choose congregations where services are not routinely recorded or broadcast.
The conversation has since broadened into a wider reflection on the balance between digital outreach and preserving the sanctity of worship, raising questions about how churches can navigate modern media practices without eroding the intimacy many believers seek in their faith experience.
