I a not shooting anyone down. . . i won't and will not
But i just think our level of reasoning ought to change a bit. . . . .in any case i will love to know the criteria for nomination and eventual winner!!

But if legend is what i know it to be, Adeboye still has some miles to cover. Mind you, this is not a test of popularity.
Heck why is Phillip Emeagwali not nominated and a host of others!!

These are people i consider should be remembered for innovations that add value to human existence and life.
My dear preaching on the pulpit is not enough. Moreso he is only popular amongst his congregation

@phemmy
Here are the criteria they used

''According to Vanguard and Silverbird, the project was borne out of the fact that “for too long in Nigeria, so much emphasis has been placed on materialism and wealth, which in turn has led to the get rich quick syndrome and the erroneous praise of visibly corrupt and irresponsible individuals, a situation that has led to undeserving and unworthy people being bestowed with National Awards while the real heroes of our time, who have contributed selflessly to the upliftment and development of our fatherland have had their achievements gone unnoticed because of the present day celebration of mediocrity and corruption”.

Tudór:

Now that the criminal adeboye has won,let him write the title on the first page of his bible and show his brainwashed flock. . . .*hisses*

tkb417:

Emeagwali was there last year and i dont think he won

are you saying he'll be nominated every other year? lol

Preaching on the pulpit? i dont know what ure talking about.
Thats what the man does, thats where he got his fame

Kanu got his through his football skills, Gani through his legal runs
so how is that hard to figure?

ol boi, drop the arguement, u cant win

Now this is where you got it all wrong!! Who told you its about fame?
Other got the fame and used it to help humanity and Nigerians. . . . . .ok Rev King is a Nigerian living Legend according to you?
Say something else man. . . . . . . . . Nomination no wahala but winning? Mba. . . .ekwero m. . . .
The voting doesn't even represent what Nigerians think. . . . . How many states watch Silver Bird!!

Also have it in mind, Adeboye is only popular in RCCG!!!!

TK
Another misrepresentation here again? I ain't here to pull anyone down man.
I have two issues here. He won it cos of the religious sentiments Nigerians espouse in doing things.
Secondly, if the whole of Nigeria or at least a good majority where to vote, believe u me, Adeboye will not win.

I don't have issues with him or anything matter of fact i careless who wins but am we should learn to give it to the winner sans sentiments

If you were to vote, in all honesty, will you vote Adeboye? Say the truth and shame the devil?

Now that the criminal adeboye has won,let him write the title on the first page of his bible and wave it to his brainwashed flock. . . .*hisses*

hailolive:

What ever happened to David Oyedepo of Winners,

mess what happened to David Oyedepo of Winners or Losers!
The issue here is why does Adeboye deserve to win the living legend poll?
Bloody religious sentiments if you ask me and he doesnt deserve it nor does David Oyedepo or whatever his name is

hailolive:

What ever happened to David Oyedepo of Winners,
The whole religion thing has turned into something else, Now when they are asked to pay tax they grumble.
jesus never rode a car or anything moving from one place to the other on earth( the donkey he used to enter Jerusalem was even borrowed)
and even his disciples after his death where going from one place to the other preaching the word( and they did not buy a land or even own stuffs)
I am not saying the Pastors should not live a good life but it should not amount to keeping riches and showing off.
A 4billion naira Jet for Adeboye was what made me to stop tripping for the man.
perhaps he should have refused it and chose to be simple/.
If people say he is simple but doing complex things then what does that mean.
Oyedepo on the other hand won't even allow students who don't pay full fees write exams or stay in school.
And he benefitted from Missionary schools during his early stages in life.

If there was no missionary school. would there be Educaction this much as we have, and then it was all about please bring your child to school, Nowadays is if you don't pay the school fees, don't bring your child to school.

I believe Nigerians are not fools as some pple thought. Those that made the list of living legends deserve it. But my surprise is the attack on the personalty of the great man of God. If he should be criticised for establishing school that could not be afforded by majority of redeemers, then everybody that has participated in the running of affairs of this nation should be beheaded for not living up to their responsibilities.

Alhaji Aliko Dangote and the likes , with due respect, did not dash out their products free of charge or at lesser prices but rather at prevailing market prices. Kanu as rich as he is do collect his match bonuses whenever he plays for our dear country.

For Daddy G.O not fighting our political leaders like others you mentioned is scriptural and if you doubt it, then rever to your bible, if you have one.

Above all,If u are not satisfied with the result of the poll, then come out with your own result instead of blackmailing pple or perhap nominate yourself and stop the rubbish talk.

Aliko Dangote and other business men sell products they produce with their money or money they pay interest on, Adeboye built his school largely with the tithe and offerings collected from millions of impoverished Nigerians yearly, he does not even pay tax. so dont compare him with business men because he is not. He is a man of God or supposedly so, until him and other so called men of God muslim or xtian start acting like one they will not get any respect from majority of Nigerians. Even his secondary school is beyond the reach of ordinary Nigerians.
