Evangelist Helen Akpabio Sparks Controversy: Says "Happy Birthday" Is the Devil’s Language
Evangelist Helen Akpabio has stirred debate in Christian circles after publicly condemning the phrase “Happy Birthday,” claiming it originates from the devil.

Her comments have triggered widespread reactions online, with some defending her stance while others label it as extreme. The evangelist is known for her strict doctrinal teachings and often challenges mainstream Christian practices.
As the conversation unfolds, many are asking: where do we draw the line between culture and conviction?
