US DJ accused of promoting Demonic Programming, executing extended Body-Shaming campaign by Radio

When the Cameroon-born, Nigerian-trained medical practitioner Dr. Stella Immanuel stood outside the US Supreme Court this past July with other doctors sympathetic to the Trump administration s approach to tackling the Covid-19 pandemic, the words she uttered on that occasion reverberated well beyond the borders of the United States.

Critics of the Texas-based medical doctor, especially those who live in the United States, berated her for touting the benefits of the drug hydroxychloroquine as a cure for Covid-19, along with the other cocktail of medications Dr. Immanuel mentioned, including zinc and Zithromax. The claim that hydroxychloroquine, used alone or with a combination of other drugs can cure Covid-19 has for months been promoted by US President Donald Trump.  That proposition has consistently received pushback from many critics of the US President, who maintain he is unnecessarily endangering lives.

It was into this firestorm that Dr. Immanuel and her colleagues in the group, American Frontline Doctors, waded into immediately after their press conference this past July outside the steps of the US Supreme Court.

For Dr. Stella Immanuel, however, more was to come.  Given the reactions that continue to trail her claim regarding the efficacy of hydroxychloroquine as a cure for Covid-19, and her refusal to climb down from that claim, it is certain her name would remain on the lips of many for many months and years to come.

Indeed, immediately after she spoke those words in favour of hydroxychloroquine as a cure for Covid-19, critics of Dr. Immanuel, mostly within the US media, went to work rummaging through her past and her background. Soon, many other past words, claims and actions attributed to the Cameroon-born and Nigeria-educated doctor came to light and literally flooded the airwaves, Net-osphere and social media.

It was soon revealed that Dr. Immanuel has for many years headed-up a Pentecostal Church in the same town of Katy, Texas, where her medical practice is based. The “outraged” critics have proceeded to inundate the media with instances of Dr. Immanuel’s spiritual work as a Christian Pentecostal pastor, including her claims about the presence of Alien DNA in scientific cures for many ailments. Also aired with glee by the “outraged” critics, especially those in the United States, is the claim that medical issues such as infertility, endometriosis, cysts and erectile dysfunction, among others, can and are often precipitated by the victim having involuntary sex with “spirit husbands” and “spirit wives” in his or her dreams.

In one instance, Dr. Immanuel has been copiously quoted as saying as follows in one of her Church’s videos lifted from the Church’s website and now making the rounds on the Internet: “Astral sex is the ability to project one’s spirit man into the victim’s body and have intercourse with it. This practice is very common amongst Satanists. They leave their physical bodies in a dormant state while they project their spirits into the body of whoever they want to have sex with…”

Those words have been trailed, particularly in the United States, by such a level of outrage that perhaps spurred the Texas Medical Board, the body that licenses medical doctors in the state of Texas where Dr. Immanuel practices to launch a since-concluded investigation into Dr. Immanuel and her activities as a medical doctor. That probe has since cleared the doctor.

However, detailed checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad has since uncovered the fact that the “outrage” in America which trailed the claims about demons made by Dr. Immanuel is at best half-hearted and a largely-manufactured attempt at brushing away a phenomenon a great number of Americans not only know exist but have also acknowledged as being present in their lives.  According to these checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad, a sizeable number of Americans not only know demons and their related activities exist but are perhaps embarrassed or apprehensive to admit many of their fellow Americans do possess and exercise demonic powers over others in their day-to-day lives, perhaps in fear of the legal and other consequences such an admission can have on their personal lives, including potentially-devastating lawsuits.

Checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad into this usually-unpleasant underside of life in the United States, a country that has an outside perception as one based “purely” on science and technology and where supernatural beliefs and actions hardly exist, were spurred by a recent blog posting made by a Nigeria-born attorney who now lives in the United States.  The blog posting briefly mentioned the fact that a radio DJ in the United States, Dave Ryan, who works for the 101.3 KDWB radio station based in St. Louis Park, a suburb of the city of Minneapolis in the US State of Minnesota, hosted for many years on his popular “Dave Ryan in the Morning” radio program a self-described spiritual healer and psychic named  Gary Spivey.

Dave Ryan’s 101.3 KDWB radio station is owned by iHeartMedia / iHeartRadio, a multi-billion corporation that has numerous media holdings in the US.

Investigations by NigeriaNewsAbroad into the many years that Spivey has appeared on the “Dave Ryan in the Morning” programme, and numerous other programmes on other radio stations across the US, demonstrate the level of insincere hypocrisy with which claims of demonic phenomena by Dr. Immanuel were received by many in the United States and many parts of the world after they were unearthed. One of those claims by Dr. Immanuel was that there exist people who have the ability to leave their own bodies and enter the bodies of others, in order to wreak havoc on the latter, including having sex with them.

That is a capability the American psychic and spiritual healer, Gary Spivey, has not only boasted about during his appearances on many radio programmes in the United States over many years, but which he has also demonstrated during those programmes, particularly his years-long appearances on the “Dave Ryan in the Morning” radio programme, which also boasts of a daily listening audience that numbers in the millions.

NigeriaNewsAbroad checks have revealed a pattern to such appearances by Gary Spivey  on the “Dave Ryan in the Morning” radio programme, as follows: a listener calls and tells Spivey, about a personal problem such a listener might be having. These could be relationship or physical / mental problems like anxiety, depression, illness, or the like. In response, Spivey would often tell the caller to place his or her hand on the radio set through which the caller had been listening to the programme.

Then Gary Spivey, often to accompanying “ooooohhhh  and ahhhhhh” sounds made by the programme host and DJ, Dave Ryan, would ask the listener if he or she could feel a sensation on their body, especially a part of the body the listener has called to complain about.  Spivey would usually tell each caller “Do you feel warm right now as I know you do?” All such callers would acknowledge they felt such a sensation.

Gary Spivey would thereafter ask the caller if he or she experienced better feelings in that part of their body after they felt that sensation through placing their hands on their respective radio sets. All of such callers would often answer in the affirmative. This healing-through-radio testimonial would then be followed, again, by effusive praises by the programme host and DJ, Dave Ryan.

Checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad show that in not one of those healings or “positive spiritual interaction” would the source of the healing be ascribed to a known higher power other than Gary Spivey, which is often acknowledged for such purposes by Christians as Jesus Christ.  A majority of Americans, among whom are regular listeners of the “Dave Ryan in the Morning” radio programme, identify as Christians or having a connection to the Christian faith.

Over the years, according to checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad, many millions of listeners all over America have been known to tune into and even make calls to Gary Spivey during such programming, especially during his numerous appearances on the “Dave Ryan in the Morning” show.  Further checks equally did not uncover any complaint made to broadcast regulators anywhere in the United States, or in the state of Minnesota which the “Dave Ryan in the Morning Show” calls home, that Gary Spivey’s apparent—and unrefuted, at least on air during such programming—act of “transmitting” himself into the bodies of callers during his radio appearances to cure such callers of ailments they complained about was simply an act of fraud which lured such callers to subsequent private, face-to-face encounters with Gary Spivey, as is usually the case prior to the end of almost every such encounter by Spivey with each caller.

According to numerous sources who spoke with NigeriaNewsAbroad on the issue, if there are literally no complaints of fraud regarding the activities of Gary Spivey and his likes and such continue or are tolerated on American airwaves as is apparently the case, then it only lends credence to the belief that the supposed outrage at Dr. Immanuel in the wake of her references to demons is simply an attempt by a great number of Americans to hide a phenomenon they are embarrassed to admit widely exists in their midst and on their airwaves.  

Many who spoke to NigeriaNewsAbroad on the issue of Americans “condemning” Dr. Immanuel for acknowledging the presence and antics of demons while at the same time being privy to such activities, agree nothing more could be hypocritical and unseemly. Said a source who requested anonymity: “Average Americans are involved in demonic activities like no man’s business. Yes, racism is a problem here (in the States) but many of them will not admit that demonism and demonic activities is a bigger problem. They will not do that because a great number of Americans of every colour and background, white, black, Latino, Asian, poor, rich, educated, not-very-educated, name it, are into demonic phenomena. They use it to monitor their neighbors, see what people who are not near them are seeing, hear what people who are not near them are hearing, know what people who are not near them are thinking, etc. It’s apparently what they use to go around laws that are currently on the books against certain crimes, such as stalking, criminal invasion of privacy and even rape. Or how can you describe your next-door neighbor who sees what you are doing in the privacy of your bedroom through what is essentially the exercise of demonic power”?

Further checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad, especially on the Internet, also demonstrate that Dr. Immanuel’s comments on the presence of demonic phenomena in America, just as it exists elsewhere in the world, is a reality that cannot be legitimately controverted or laughed away under the guise  of a fake and “widespread outrage” manufactured by an influential (and mostly demonic) segment of America’s media.

During an interview with the Religion News Service in the aftermath of the controversy about Dr. Immanuel’s demon comments, Andre Gagne who is a professor of Theological Studies at Concordia University located in Montreal, Canada, also lent credence to Dr. Immanuel’s demon comments, saying “…That’s essentially Genesis Chapter 6…”

According to Professor Gagne, Dr. Immanuel’s demon comments are widely familiar to members of Pentecostal and Charismatic churches, especially in Africa, with such offshoots of the Christian Church and faith also counting millions of American as members, many of which attend services laden with Biblical references to demons and with such services and sermons regularly broadcast to millions. According to Professor Gagne, in such belief systems that are already subscribed to by millions of Church-going Americans, the physical and spiritual world are undoubtedly interconnected: “…It could be sickness, it could be prosperity…it could be things around infertility. It could be anything. That world has an impact.”

A religious scholar in the US who also spoke to NigeriaNewsAbroad on condition of anonymity lent further credence to the view that a contrived and fake “outrage” in the United States trailed Dr. Immanuel’s past comments about demonic activity. According to her “many Americans claim to be Christians yet do not recognize that demons and the struggle against their negative influence on humans is a topic addressed in many places in the Christian Bible. These include Revelation 12:9; Mark 1:27; Ephesians 6:12 and Peter 5:8, among others.”

According to this scholar the only reason anyone could be “outraged” or “surprised” about Dr. Immanuel’s demon references and attempt to belittle such and the personality that “dared” to utter them  was that such person or persons are the demons-in-human-form referenced in Dr. Immanuel’s comments, who want attention diverted away from their harmful activities towards other humans among which they live. They could also, says the scholar, be persons who are simply willfully ignorant and who will never believe in phenomena that cannot “easily” be explained by science and technology.

Says the scholar: “which real Christian is unaware that God Almighty, through His words conveyed to us in the Bible, warned us about demons that possess people to cause such persons physical and spiritual harm, as we find in Matthew 12:22? Or about demons in human form who torment believers, as in 2 Corinthians 12:7? Or demons who promote false doctrine and perform signs to deceive humans, as we find in Revelation 16:14 and 1 Timothy 4:1?”

Continued the scholar: “Those who outrightly dismiss demonic phenomena and other negativities associated with such phenomena, as pointed out by Dr. Immanuel, even when such people know about the well-publicized projections-through-radio of the likes of Gary Spivey and his radio DJ enablers like Dave Ryan of the 101.3 KDWB radio station are simply stating the side they are on in the divide between good and evil. You can’t condemn what you know exist, or what you know you even use against others. From my experience it is these demons-in-human-form who wreak havoc with the lives of innocent people who usually have no clue about what is happening that later make fun of those who raise the alarm about the presence of demons and demonic activity. Such  demons-in-human-form know that any widespread acknowledgement of their existence would raise curiosity about the exact nature and extent of their destructive activities, which is attention they know they cannot afford. Hence the continuing haste to deny their own existence immediately after any such mention is made of them or their activities. But they also unwittingly unmask themselves by tolerating and promoting the activities of the likes of Gary Spivey and others like him”.

Further checks by NigeriaNewsAbroad, sequel to revelations contained in the blog entries by the Nigerian-born, US-based attorney already referenced, also revealed that for close to two decades, demon-promoting DJ Dave Ryan of the Minnesota radio station, 101.3 KDWB also used his influential station to promote body-shaming exertions that drew unwanted attention to people’s anatomy, especially their hands.

Minnesota, incidentally, is the state in the US where George Floyd, a black man, had life snuffed out  of him by a white policeman who knelt on his neck and refused to remove it from Floyd’s neck despite entreaties and pleas from both Floyd and passers-by, until Floyd breathed his last.

Investigations by NigeriaNewsAbroad reveal that the source of the very derogatory term “101”, which is used informally throughout the United States and even all over the world (including in Nigeria) to refer to the small size of a person’s hands or arms, was the unsavoury and persistent activities of this radio DJ whom many people outside the United States or even in many states in the US have never heard of, but who used his influence within the iHeartMedia-owned family of radio stations for decades to manipulate listeners and promote a body-shaming campaign targeted at embarrassing and harassing those people (especially males) who have skinny, small or “not-so-manly” hands. 

That body-shaming campaign, thorough and very vicious in its reach and effect after being unleashed and largely sustained by the activities of DJ Dave Ryan (who also actively promoted the demon-like antics of Gary Spivey on his radio station during the years his body-shaming campaign was in full gear) has now been memorialized and exposed in a legal complaint filed by the Nigerian-born, US-based attorney. An extract of that complaint can be read here.
