Man shares video of churchgoers fighting the air while praying, calls it insanity

A Nigerian man identified as Jygga Collins recently shared a shocking video on Facebook which has stunned many people. The clip showcased a group of churchgoers who were praying. Their prayer was not, however, the major source of concern. It was how they were praying that raised concerns and caused the individual who posted the footage to tag them as insane people. In the video, the churchgoers who were scattered around, both inside and outside the church, were fighting the air while praying. Even more, they were rolling on the sandy ground and doing other weird things. Their prayer was very loud and wild. It was almost like watching a fight break out in a remote, closed community.
