David Oyedepo who recently
turned 60, has reacted to
the Forbes List of World's
Richest pastors where he
was placed at No.1 with an
estimated worth of about $
150million.
Asked about Forbes'
estimate of his fortune,
Bishop Oyedepo told Reuters
that he doesn't know how
Forbes arrived at their
figure but says he's
blessed...
"For me, to have fortune
means someone who has
what he needs at any point
in time. I don't see myself as
having $150 million stacked
up somewhere. Whatever
way they found their figures,
I am only able to say I am
blessed by the Lord."
Asked if churches should pay
tax considering how much
they make, Bishop Oyedepo
said;
"There is no single
government input on this
premises. We supply our
water, we make our roads,
then you ... say: 'Let's tax
them'. For what?"
