Pastor Joshua Aghasedo has sparked debate on social media after expressing his view that the use of sex toys by married couples should not be regarded as a sin.
The clergyman said sex toys can serve as tools to assist married couples in their intimate life, drawing comparisons between such devices and everyday equipment used to make life easier.
According to Aghasedo, his position applies specifically to couples who are legally married, stressing that the context of their use is important.

He described sex toys as equipment that can support intimacy between husband and wife rather than something inherently sinful.
However, the pastor distinguished between their use within marriage and their use by an individual. He argued that when such devices are used alone for sexual gratification, it would fall under masturbation, which he considers a different matter.
Aghasedo’s comments have generated mixed reactions online, particularly among Christians, with some agreeing with his interpretation of marital intimacy while others have questioned whether the use of such devices is compatible with their understanding of Christian teachings.
The discussion has once again brought the subject of sexual intimacy within Christian marriages into public conversation, particularly regarding issues that are often considered private or taboo.
Aghasedo’s remarks were shared online in a report attributed to Naija News, which described him as saying that sex toys can be viewed as tools that assist couples within marriage.
