Controversial media personality Ifedayo Olarinde, popularly known as Daddy Freeze, has opened up about the heavy financial toll his outspoken criticism of Nigerian pastors has taken on his career.
Speaking on the Leadership podcast with Stephen Akintayo, Freeze revealed that his once thriving business ventures collapsed following his public attacks on prominent religious figures.
He said the backlash was so intense that it led to a dramatic drop in income, particularly from his work as a master of ceremonies (MC).
According to him, he used to earn up to ₦1.5 million per event when the dollar stood at ₦150, which translated to around $10,000 every two months or approximately $60,000 annually solely from hosting gigs.
But all that changed after he began voicing controversial views on religious practices and figures.
He said: “When I came after Nigerian pastors, I lost 100% of my business at the initial stage. It got so bad that after like two years, I used to MC because my rate were high, I used to charge N1.5m when dollar was N150. I used to get one in two in a months.
“A revenue of $10,000 every two months which is like $60, 000 a year from just one aspect, it went away. Till now I have not done MC since 2019. I had one or two gigs here and there but the one they agreed to pay, they paid me upfront then the flier came out and everybody said they were not going to attend. Because I hadn’t made money in a long time as they paid the money and spent it all.
“The guy called and I told him we have agreed, he said if it about the upfront, I can keep it”.
