A Christian-based organisation, Xtreme Search Reality TV Show, a subsidiary of Psalmist Missionary Global Outreach, has called for an end to nude reality television shows in Nigeria.
Speaking to newsmen in Lagos on Monday, Evangelist Chuka Abuoma, President of the organisation, said the group has embarked on a rigorous nationwide campaign to sensitise Nigerians on the dangers of such content.
According to Abuoma, the protection of Nigeria’s moral fabric is essential to securing a safer and healthier society.
“A growing campaign against nude reality TV shows highlights the potential threats these programmes pose to the nation’s economic, political, educational, and health sectors,” he said.
He warned that exposing Nigerian youths to explicit content could lead to:
Defilement of moral conscience
Degradation of self-esteem and confidence
Weakening of resistance against immoral acts and sexual perversions
Sexual harassment and exploitation
Moral decadence and spiritual apathy
Negative influence on the nation’s future leaders
Abuoma urged media regulatory bodies to enforce stricter content guidelines while calling on producers to prioritize responsible programming. He also encouraged viewers to demand better entertainment options.

He noted that one of the biggest challenges facing the campaign is lack of funding and support. He therefore appealed to well-meaning individuals, churches, and organisations to amplify the message and provide financial backing to help push the advocacy to policymakers and industry stakeholders.
So far, the campaign has been staged at strategic locations including the National Stadium, Living Faith Church (Winners Chapel) headquarters in Ota, Badagry Beach, Our Lady of Fatima Catholic Church, City of Light Worship Centre Ikotun, Ikotun Market, and Scripture Union Nigeria, among others in Lagos State.
