Ibadan-based cleric Kayode Amusan, popularly known as Agbala Gabriel, is facing intense public scrutiny as allegations of sexual misconduct and the diversion of medical donations have sparked a heated debate across social media platforms.
Kayode Amusan, the Ibadan-based cleric widely known as Agbala Gabriel, is currently at the center of a social media firestorm following allegations of financial and sexual misconduct. For years, Amusan built a massive online following by projecting an image of a compassionate philanthropist who used his ministry to raise millions for the sick and vulnerable. However, that reputation is now being questioned as a series of viral accusations on Facebook, TikTok, and In1stagram claim he mishandled funds intended for medical procedures and allegedly fathered twins with a former backup singer in his church.
The controversy gained significant traction following a viral video featuring Nollywood actress Foluke Daramola, who detailed her experience with a spinal patient named Morenikeji. Daramola revealed that she had originally spearheaded a fundraising campaign for the woman but stepped back once the family moved the patient to the cleric’s care under the promise of full surgical support and better accommodation. “Later, I got to know that Gabriel abandoned them and failed to provide the support of a good accommodation and surgery he promised,” Daramola stated, echoing concerns raised by the patient’s daughter, who eventually withdrew her mother from the cleric’s facility.
As the debate intensifies, many of the cleric’s supporters and critics are demanding a transparent audit of the various “mercy” funds he has managed over the years. While Agbala Gabriel has built his brand on public displays of charity and prayer for struggling families, these dual allegations of moral and financial failure have led to a significant rift among his followers. As of Saturday, March 14, 2026, the cleric has not released a comprehensive rebuttal to the specific claims regarding the spinal patient or the allegations of a secret family, while social media activists continue to call for an investigation into his fundraising activities.
