He emphasized that criticism becomes inevitable when religious institutions influence people who do not share their beliefs. Kuti further argued that churches often move from guiding personal worship to shaping public life without providing practical solutions to pressing social problems. He suggested that religious organizations should prioritize concrete welfare programs, such as free hospitals and maternal services, rather than relying solely on spiritual pronouncements, especially since congregants contribute financially through offerings and donations.
