“I’m Single and Tired” – Comedian Princess Calls on Nigerian Pastors for Help Finding Love
Popular Nigerian comedian and actress, Princess, has stirred widespread reactions on social media after publicly appealing to prominent Nigerian pastors to help her find a suitable life partner.
In a video shared on her official Instagram page, the entertainer openly called on respected church leaders, including Pastor Bolaji Idowu, Pastor Philip Olumbakin, Pastor Jerry Eze, Apostle Selman Okeke, and Apostle Femi Lazarus, urging them to assist her in identifying a kind, responsible man within their congregations.

Princess stated that she believes churches, both physical and online, are filled with men who embody strong values, responsibility, and emotional maturity.
“This video, I’ll be calling out Pastor Bolaji, Pastor Philip Olumbakin, Pastor Jerry Eze, Apostle Selman, and Apostle Femi Lazarus. You all know you have congregants — physical ones and those who follow you online,” she said.
Explaining her motivation, Princess noted that pastors frequently encourage believers to combine prayer with action, adding that her video was inspired by that same principle.
The comedian also addressed her personal life, revealing that she is currently single despite being divorced. According to her, she initially reached out privately for guidance but decided to speak publicly after enduring online ridicule over her marital status.
She questioned the idea that none of the churches she mentioned could have at least one man who is genuinely responsible and kind.
“Are you saying that in your whole church, all the branches, there is not one man that is responsible and kind?” she asked.
Princess concluded by emphasizing that faith should be supported with deliberate steps, noting that as 2026 approaches, she is ready to take practical action toward finding love, companionship, and emotional fulfillment.
The video has since generated mixed reactions online, with many applauding her honesty while others debated whether religious leaders should be involved in personal matchmaking.
