“Kings are recognised for royalty, not…” – Bishop Abioye blasts men who wear earrings, plait hair

Bishop David Abioye, the Pastor of Living World Conquerors Global Assembly, has lambasted men who wear earrings and plait their hair, saying such styles undermine their dignity and masculinity.

Speaking during a sermon captured in a viral video, the cleric questioned why any man would choose to dress like a woman.

He urged men to uphold dignity in their dressing, stressing that a respectable man presents himself in a way that commands respect and reflects true royalty.

“Kings are recognised for royalty, mentally and physically. Stop behaving like a street boy, including your appearance. Don’t dress carelessly. Royalty is synonymous with kingship,” Bishop Abioye said.

He further admonished men to carry themselves with pride and uniqueness that make them stand out positively in public.

“Carry yourself in a manner that when people see you in public, they see something unique about you. Even in the system of the world, you don’t see people in positions dressing anyhow,” he said.

The bishop warned against adopting fashion trends that, in his view, do not align with biblical and cultural standards.

“Putting earrings on as a man, what are you doing with it? Plaiting your hair as a man, what are you doing with it? I know many young people won’t like what I’m saying, but I have to show it to you from scriptures and from culture. Even if you don’t know scripture, behave culturally,” he stated.

He called on men to embrace their identity as created by God.

“What is fitting is fitting. God created you as a man, for those of you who are men. Why would you like to be a woman when He created you like a man? Why aren’t you satisfied with the way God made you?” he asked.
