Thumbs up Man!

Chrisbenogor:

Yeah it will but lets not all feel like he was a hero,what was he doing with than kind of money at that age?

Chrisbenogor:

No be only, why did he keep it till he was 82? who is the man deceiving?

Na wah o

Exactly my thoughts when I read it, who the man dey fool?

Y is it dat wen u do good pple will talk negatively do bad dey wil stil talk negatively dnt do at all dey wil talk, Am sure if dis man had donated dis money wen he waz much younger dey will say he is a thief where did he get dat kind of money? at dis age?

This man has done something great. Some wealthy people in naija will not care and will not help less previledge rather, they steal more and more of our money. Learn from this man.

At least he's more honourable than most pastors eyeing up choir boys and girls.
Agents of satan in the churches.

Not impressed at all. . . . . . . stil boils down to what nigerian r suffering from religion?

him donating the money doesnt make him a better person. . . you guys shud get it right God never said bring money and give me the way pastors av twisted the bible to make u blive so). . God doesnt need ur bloody money or ur material possessions this greedy pastors do. . .

God loves a cheerful giver. . . . . u can give as low as 1 kobo as long as u r happy giving it.

for the 480 pounds there are alot he shud av used it for . . . for damn bloody sake.

nigeria is not the best of place as it is. . . . shud av used it in someway to make a lot of miserable lives better. . .

sow in the lives of people. . . . build something. . . open up something. . . make electricity running. . . .

Givers never lack.

It is more blessed to give than to receive.

Leaving all that amount of money to the church wont change how the money is expended

Good frm d man.

Cool. This is just cool

its normal

promise made, promise kept thumbs up man!

I Thank God for his life.

To all the extremely daft people who've been questioning the man's motives and d fact that this only came to light when he was 82, if u read d article properly instead of doing the usual ITK, pull him down ,BS,, you'd know that d man didnt just start giving away money. Do some research b4 you shoot off your mouths. Read extracts articles below;

From the article u supposedly read:
"John Nugent, chairman of the Albert Gubay Charitable Foundation, said: “Albert is a very frugal man and has dedicated his life to good causes. "

Mr Gubay’s £1m Donation - New Opportunities for Isle of Man Students

"Students starting degrees at any of the world’s top ten universities can apply for a bursary. The bursaries are the result of the generous gift of one million pounds made by Mr Albert Gubay earlier this year for the advancement of sporting achievement and educational attainment by residents of the Isle of Man"

http://www.gov.im/lib/news/education/mrgubays1mdonati.xml

"In the 1980s, Gubay paid for a replacement church at the site of St Antony in Onchan, Isle of Man. The church was designed by Clayton/Massey, with local architect John Cryer responsible for the interior, and Gubay's suggestion of a window illustrating Christ walking on Douglas Bay by Chris Spittall as focal point.[14]  In 1990, Gubay paid for an extension to Our Lady of the Nativity church in Leixlip, County Kildare, in memory of his mother, Mary Clarke, a native of the area.

how i wish i could be this generous

That's one crazy man. Although crazy in a good way!

If it were me I would take like 3 or 4 million for myself then give the 400+ million away.

WOW !!! That is a man of integrity there if he really did it to fullfil his covenant with God. Great!!!

That was very thoughtful of him  

Some1 wrote/typed dis --- "I only read the title. Where is the church located. If na 9ja church then na basket him put the money. Our so called 9ja men of God cant be trusted. Instead I will hand it over DIRECTLY to the less privilege"

The poster stated pounds sterling NOT naira
& d article says UK if am not wrong. so its obviously d UK.
i also thank God it's not in 9ja he did that, blimey that pastor
and his generations to come 4 no suffer again lai lai
