According to Prophet Lethebo Rabalago, the insecticide is a just name, and can be used as to heal people once it has been blessed.

"The truth is, Doom can heal people in the right way. Doom is just a name, but when you speak to it to become a healing product, it does. People get healed and delivered through doom," he wrote on Facebook.

We asked Pulse readers to weigh in on this controversy.

82% agreed that this is a crazy way to heal people.

Surprisingly, some people (18%) still believe in Prophet Rabalago, saying he is a true Man of God.

In another matter, a Jesus look-alike was spotted in Nairobi, Kenya on November 24, 2016.

This sighting caused a huge commotion on Moi Avenue, where he was seen, and on Twitter, where he trended.

Readers were asked what they would do if they saw Jesus Christ in Nigeria.

The majority (28.6%) said they would follow him, 25% would ask for selfies, 21.4% said they would ask for a miracle, 7.1% said they did not know what they would do while 3.6% said they would hug him.

Interestingly, 14.3% said they would ignore him.

What would you do?

We also asked readers what they would do if their pastor asked them to touch electrical wires.

This was based on the story of a South African Man of God named Apostle Phillip Sithole, who claims that he has the power to command his church members to touch wires, without getting electrocuted.

"I can command people to touch live wires and they will not get electrocuted. Anointing is more powerful than live wires. Not everyone can do this. It’s only for those who have the power of God," he told the Daily Sun.

61.5% said they would not touch the wires because he is obviously mad, while 38.5% said they would do it out of faith.

The results of this poll show that Nigerians would still believe in prophets, who are capable of killing them in the name of religion.
