Radio Personality N6 Blasts Pastor Paul Adefarasin in Fiery Open Letter: 'Register for Anger Management Classes'

In an explosive open letter that has since sent social media into a frenzy, Nigerian On-Air Personality N6, known off-air as Nnamdi Nwabasili, took a direct and unapologetic swing at one of the country’s most prominent pastors, Paul Adefarasin, founder and Senior Pastor of House On The Rock Church. The post, which appeared on his social media handle @n6oflife6, was blunt, confrontational, and—by all accounts—intended to rattle cages.

N6 began his letter with a tone that was equal parts concern and condemnation: “Dear Pastor @pauladefarasin Do yourself a Huge Favour & Register for Anger Management Classes as soon as Possible.” The message wasn’t veiled. It wasn’t metaphorical. It was a verbal missile pointed squarely at the clergyman, who has for decades built a reputation as a polished, charismatic, and widely respected spiritual leader. But for N6, all that glimmer of the pulpit appears to be losing its shine—fast.

The radio host went further, referencing what he termed “2 strikes of Public displays of Violence,” one of which, according to him, “directly drew blood.” That remark alone has left many Nigerians stunned and speculating. No concrete details have been offered by N6 or other witnesses regarding these alleged incidents, but the severity of the claims has sparked widespread debate. Many are now scouring archives and social media for any incident or footage that might corroborate these explosive accusations.

“Lowkey you might be doing worse in private,” N6 added in his scathing letter. With those words, the OAP appeared to suggest that what the public may have seen or heard is merely the tip of the iceberg. He implied that darker, more troubling behavior could be lurking behind the scenes, hidden away from public scrutiny under the weight of reverence, tithes, and tailored suits. For a society where many pastors are revered with near-divine adulation, this kind of accusation is no small matter.

The post, signed off with the words “Your brother in Christ. NG,” has since gone viral across Nigerian X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram communities, eliciting a torrent of reactions from across the spectrum. Supporters of N6 have praised the radio personality for “speaking truth to power,” particularly in a nation where religious leaders often operate in untouchable spheres. Critics, however, have slammed the letter as unnecessarily antagonistic, potentially defamatory, and lacking in context.

Pastor Paul Adefarasin has yet to officially respond to the allegations or the viral letter. His social media accounts remain silent on the matter, and no official statement has been released by House On The Rock Church as of this writing. Still, the silence is being interpreted by some as a deliberate attempt to avoid inflaming the situation, while others see it as a deafening non-denial that further fans the flames of suspicion.

N6, known for his fiery takes and unfiltered opinions, is no stranger to controversy. A former rapper turned radio host, he has cultivated an image of someone who isn’t afraid to tackle the sacred cows of Nigerian society—from politicians to pop stars and now, pastors. His directness, often laced with streetwise wit, has earned him a dedicated following but also no small number of detractors. With this latest salvo, he’s arguably taken one of his boldest risks yet: openly challenging a powerful and widely beloved spiritual leader on a matter as sensitive as violence and emotional instability.

The timing of this confrontation also adds another layer to its potency. Nigeria is in the midst of several societal reckonings—from the youth-led pushback against entrenched political norms to growing skepticism around religious authority. This public letter from N6 seems to tap directly into that spirit of accountability, raising uncomfortable questions about transparency and behavioral standards even among the cloth-wearing elite.

Online forums have already lit up with hot takes and digital debates. Some users are calling for evidence of the alleged incidents mentioned by N6. Others argue that his bold move may trigger a necessary conversation about the emotional and psychological health of religious leaders, who are often placed under intense public pressure but rarely subjected to the same level of scrutiny they expect from their followers.

The claim that one of the “public displays of violence” resulted in actual injury—“drew blood,” as N6 put it—is perhaps the most damning part of the letter. If even partially true, it could result in serious reputational damage for Pastor Adefarasin, not to mention potential legal implications. At a time when many institutions are facing renewed calls for reform and openness, such an accusation, left unanswered, could linger like smoke without fire—or ignite a full-blown scandal.

Still, some voices from within the church community have rallied behind Adefarasin, praising his decades of service, philanthropy, and leadership. “Let’s not rush to crucify a man of God based on one side of the story,” one commenter on Instagram wrote. “People love to throw stones at tall trees. Let’s wait for facts.”

Meanwhile, N6 has remained characteristically unfazed. Known for doubling down in the face of backlash, he has continued engaging with followers online, offering further insights into his motivations without divulging much more detail. “Sometimes we must hold the shepherds to the same light they hold up for their flock,” he wrote in a follow-up post, further cementing his stance.

The impact of this open letter may not be immediately measurable, but it’s already opened the floodgates to a discussion that transcends two public figures. At its core, it’s a confrontation between image and reality, between assumed sanctity and human fallibility. Whether N6’s claims are borne out by evidence or not, his words have shaken a hornet’s nest, forcing many to re-examine where their loyalty lies: with the man at the pulpit, or with the principle of accountability.

As Nigerians watch to see whether Pastor Adefarasin responds—or whether more evidence surfaces—the ripple effects of this open letter are already being felt far beyond the comment sections. For now, the public remains divided, intrigued, and, above all, reminded that no one, not even a man of God, is above question.
