Is he charging based on the quality they offer or because he feels the parents have the money so they should be billed dry? |

arabbunkum: I don't blame him. How many of his church members can afford to send their wards to Covenant University?I can say like 40% of the students attend winners(so a lot of members can actually afford the fees) |

bigtt76: Come on ....money spent on recharge card is a collective summation of more than 60 million phone users in the country. 1 million naira upwards spent on burial is not a yearly affair and usually is as a result of contribution to the bereaved from various sources. And all your list that go's on does not affect the university in question abi? you just assisted in helping the Bishop list some of the reasons for the high cost in private universities. Some of this private universities have not experienced power cut for upward of 2 years. Also remember that unlike ASU it is not government that pay their lecturers and all other staff. It is not easy or cheap to do anything good in Nigeria. But it will surprise you that Federal universities maybe more expensive if they are to be self sustaining. 1 Like |

kennygee: I am a Christian and a born again one at that. There is no where in the bible that the church was a money making venture. Was Oyedepo's education expensive? Most of the men of their generation enjoyed scholarships self. To me, the church should give out, instead of competing with the world. A Church university that cannot be accessed by more than half its congregation has lost it..God bless u. Members of these churches contributed to d realising of d universities but could not afford to attending it. 3 Likes |

The missionaries brought medical and free education to our people which most of our pastors and elder enjoyed but today our pastors and leaders can not provide the same opportunities they enjoyed instead they are leveraging on such privileges to milk other. 4 Likes |

Schools built by church funds are called missionary schools. Why can't we give back to the society what it gave us. I ask, how much did it cost back then to finish University in Unilorin? I doubt it cost N200,000. If Awo could do it with the few resources given his region,how much more the Church when tithe& offering is constant. They can make the fee a little higher than Govt Universities with condition that the pupil+parent must be church members. With that the flock would be full without evangelism. All na vanity! 5 Likes |

It is a waste of time to criticise people of this status and stand. They have lost all forms of human kindness and feeling, their conscience is DEAD and their soul lost! ....i will not waste my precious time to criticise them because they feel nothing and are completely oblivious of the real world, and real situation. I will rather ignore their oppressive statements and their wicked inclination of the ordinary man as lazy, stupid, unwise and of low minds. God will catch you all one by one and by God. 5 Likes |

Celepope: Many Nigerians just like condemning anything church perhaps it is based on poverty.You guys should cut them some slack.I am not taking side with this man but he is not far from the truth.Most private University even in the US owned by churches are also expensive.A good example is Oral Roberts University.I have not come across where the owners of the religious Universities forced anyone to attend their school.It is by choice.Some will soon start complaining that his members can't attend his school.Funny enough many of them are not complaining so why are you guys bothered?If you think you have the money then your can send your kids there but if not you can sure look else where i.e Adekunle Ajasin University and other.Anyways even the useless state Universities in Nigeria are getting expensive daily without any meaningful infrastructure and wack administration so you guys should ponder on the difference between both. God bless you. Billions of our money is getting embezzled every day, we are not saying sh*t. But when it is church money that people gave of their own free will and will continue to give, we all come out with strength and agility to attack. Please lets go and look at this year's budget for education and let's see if we got value for "our money". Some of us don't even reason that the wealth of this country belongs to us all, but a myopic few have kidnapped the wealth of all. I rather we talk about what our government is talking about education, it is not by force to attend private university. 1 Like |

Too much money and display of affluence and wealth is sinful; especially in the face of abject sprawling poverty. What is the use of million dollar university when you can build a moderate affordable one that will not encourage depression and mockery of the poor, especially in a country like Nigeria. 3 Likes |

I doubt it cost N200,000. If Awo could do it with the few resources given his region,how much more the Church when tithe& offering is constant. Simple. The problem is caused by you and I. Those missionary schools also had missionary teachers. After the building of the universities who will pay the lecturers? Do you know the staff strength of that university? Most off us just have this holier-than-thou attitude. How many less privileged persons have you helped this year? The Bishop claim that they have been giving out scholarship even before they started building schools. Anyway he has touched more lives positively than you. And to go to a private school is not by force. 3 Likes |
Re: Oyedepo Defends Fees Charged By Private Universities by Eeser: 3:30pm On Sep 21, 2014 |
Hmmm... I thought the missionaries gave us everything free. Education, healthcare, even stomache infrastructure from money accrued via tithe paid by faithfuls in their home countries. Why can't we do the same? Dear baba, when did the church become a profit making organisation that we will even contemplate comparing it with other private franchise that operate universities?
