PassingShot: Insensitive comments from Oyedepo again.

I guess he doesn't understand that the word "average" is always misleading. For example, out of ten persons, one has a million Naira and each of the rest has 10,000 Naira each. Going by the word "average", each of those ten guys now has 109,000 Naira since they all have 1.09 Million Naira combined.

Oyedepo, remember that you and your likes are supposed to focus on providing and helping the less-privileged get out of life challenges especially where our government has failed but you're instead compounding the problems of the common man.

Continue to be "gods of men" instead of "men of God" and let's see where it will take you.

focus7: Your opinion and a waste of time. Check the man out he's making progress and having result.

focus7: Your opinion and a waste of ur time, d man is still moving forward.

DaWorshiper: ''An average Nigerian...''?? I don't think so!

nigerianvenom: i maynt agree totally with him,but i love his words which are fact

kropelgrada:
You sir are a grade 1 pillock.
Why does he have to depend on church offerings and tithes to break new grounds and make progress.
If he was so smart like you make him out to be why didn't he start out as a businessman.Because he has made so much money as a 'god of men',now he is breaking new grounds?
Better bring your head out of this man's culo so that you can start thinking straight cos it's obvious that u are one of them that are being brainwashed by these modern day scammers that call themselves 'god of men'

focus7: You should have just conceal ur stupidity and not make dis post. Do u think if the man was guilty d UK government would have spared him? Maybe u should ask Pst. Mathew and learn more.

focus7: what a pity u just expressed ur opinion and wasted ur time. How do u get respose from him now?

The founder of the Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, has defended the tuition fees charged by schools owned by the church, describing the provision of quality education as an expensive venture.

Oyedepo said this while addressing journalists on Friday in Ota, Ogun State, at a media chat organised in commemoration of his 60th birthday coming up on September 27, 2014.

Private schools in the country, including Covenant and Landmark universities, owned by the church are often criticised for being too expensive for average Nigerians to afford.

But Oyedepo highlighted some of the church’s humanitarian programmes which include providing scholarships and bursary awards to assist students.

He said, “I’m sure we all agree that education is expensive. Education carries cost; nothing of value is free. Our mission for years long, before we started any university or secondary school, was a bursary awarding church and we have not stopped doing that till tomorrow.”

Oyedepo said that the church was committed to providing quality education to youths, adding that many Nigerians complain about the cost of education in private universities because they have got their priorities misplaced.

“Our problem most of the time is priority; an average Nigerian can spend N1m on burial but to spend N200,000 on education (is a problem), because of wrong priority.

“On a yearly basis, we have N1.5trn that Nigerians spend to overseas universities, so people thrive on it. Nigerians spend N463bn a month on recharge cards, how much are they paying for schools fees? So it’s all a matter of priority. This is the largest market for telephone in the world. Now, to pay N500,000, some people have only one son, they have huge business and houses all over the places, they will never pay it.”

Speaking further, Oyedepo said he had chosen not to respond to the many controversial reports about him on the social media because he considered it as a waste of time.

He said, “My understanding of opposition, persecution is simply someone’s opinion harshly expressed. Everybody has a right to his opinion. Today, millions follow after Christ but you will be surprised that when you get to Israel some people do not believe that Christ has come.

“People have rights to their opinions. I naturally don’t feel it’s necessary (to respond). The energy I would need to react, I can use it to make moves. I have enough to think about than start running after a man who says you are a fool.

“If he says you are a fool and you are behaving so, then he’s right. If you leave your job and start pursuing somebody who says you are a fool, he has already said so, your going around doesn’t change it. So why going around, why don’t you settle on your job and make moves?

“I’ve also come to understand that those who make news hardly watch them, they are so busy making news while others are busy watching.”

Asked about the challenges he has faced in life and in his ministry, Oyedepo said he had never dwelled on his challenges but that he has rather been fuelled by them.

He said, “Life essentially is full of challenges, it is those challenges that make champions. You can’t emerge a heavy weight boxing champion except you receive punches. You can’t change classes in school except you write exams.

“So to me, life is an adventure in challenges and I’ve said often that it is normal to be challenged but it’s unscriptural to be defeated. Challenges are the stepping stones for the making of champions.”

DaWorshiper: Ok, an ''Average Nigerian'' also can spend Billions of Naira to acquire a private jet, but can not make education free and cheap for his people. How about that??

Tolexander: i would have loved to ask him some questions but he wouldn't answer me since he has made up his mind not to do so.

[b][size=18pt]His Royal Highness

D Ade. Ade. Ade. Ade AdeMusiwa

House of Oduduwa
Emperor of Independent country of the Kingdom of Western Nigeria ( by International law)




the area Nigeria is already divided into 2 countries... by international law. Occupation is illegal

Western Nigeria with an Emperor , His Royal Highness Emperor D Ade. Ade. Ade. ADe. AdeMusiwa
And Nigeria.--- Goodluck Jonathan

the reason is, Independent Western Nigeria never join Nigeria. there was no decision of the people of Western nigeria to join Nigeria.

Look fashola or mimiko or aregbesola etc are considered as Illegal government, so all Oba:s which they have appointed or was appoint before them are also considered as illegal Obas under international law. You can see why Alafin of oyo etc are not recognized because they were appointed by illegal government.

Which leave the position of emperor which is still legal , which is reserve for my family. And make my family, the only emperor because an oba appointed by mimiko or fashola is illegal under international law, just like fashola or mimiko is considered as illegal. Do you now get it.

Why do I want Independent Western Nigeria to remain an Independent country different from Nigeria. Because it gives the people of Independent Western Nigeria to keep their taxes.. and develop.

Yorubas will say, Obirin to ni oyu, ko ke gbe idire to re.
