**Actress Ekene Umenwa Draws Criticism for Dedicating Her Baby to Mother Mary**
Nigerian actress Ekene Umenwa has sparked controversy after sharing a heartfelt video dedicating her new baby to Mother Mary. Some trolls have labeled her actions as idol worship, citing their understanding of Christian doctrine.
Umenwa had announced the birth of her first child in the United States, expressing her gratitude to God, mothers, and fellow expectant mothers. She then recently returned to Nigeria and kept her promise to her mother by having her baby blessed by Mother Mary before bringing her home.
In a social media post, Umenwa wrote, “The flight shifting could not stop me from taking my baby to mummy before she entered her father’s house… I want to say a big thank you to all my REV FATHERS including my father @stevemarioisioma for their constant support.” She also expressed her admiration for Mother Mary, describing her as “My power woman. My Mirror of JUSTICE.”
However, some online users have jumped to conclusions, accusing Umenwa of idol worship. They pointed out that she should only show devotion to one Supreme being, Jesus Christ. Some of the harsh comments include:
* “Is this not idol worshipping?”
* “This is idol worshipping. Only Jesus should be worshiped.”
* “This is idol worshipping. Go read your Bible well.”
Umenwa’s move has sparked a heated debate, with some defending her actions as a personal moment of gratitude and others condemning it as a form of idolatry. The controversy is likely to continue, with both sides presenting their perspectives on the issue.
