damosky12: Now, the question I want to ask is if Nairaland has now become an official platform for critizing Men of God, dragging their name the mud. It was Pst Chris, Prophet TB Josh. Boy!!! I pity you guys taking it upon yourselves to do this. It is not for you to choose who is or who is'nt a Man of God..Minimize your weeds taking. 2 Likes |

You can't even gather ur little family for family prayers but your calling and gift is to condemn men of God with millions of congregration..and even advice them on how much to charge as school fees ...officially write winners to do poverty alleviation for Nigeria!so the gvt can focus on other issues like 2015 election 2 Likes |

My stand here is clear 1. Bishop should not make it look as if everyone has the money to attend a private university but choose not to and rather spend on frivolities. 2. All church and private Universities and unaffordable to the poor should be made affordable. Some students cannot afford 150k as school fees. Such students should be identified and assisted. 3. People should realize that the poor who make up the majority remains a risk to the rich few if not adequately taken care of. Boko Haram members are not kids born with silver spoon ...they were recruited out of poverty. sarutobie: |

frosbel: 1. Every geniune church has ist welfare arm that takes care of the needs of its membes, the megachurches in Nigeria are no didderent Mr. If u know anyone who has classified himself as poor , am sure the welfare dept. of the church would be willing to attend to his needs. 2. What i find intruiging is for people to say monies are being collected from the poor and yet nothing is given back to them. I think the megachuches all thrive on excellent services it provides to its members where everyone feels honoured and being a part of the family. If u think otherwise try opening a church or better still a UNIVERSITY and lets see ur model of helping the poor!!! 3.I did advice people stop this emotional rant targeted towards those trying to salvage a basterdized, cult -ridden, sexual harrasment prone, bribe collecting lecturers system prevalent in our public universities and ask the govt. to begin investing and revamping this system. Oyedepo came up with convinient facilities for students including hostels because he has got a taste for excellence. Before now u got like 15 people to a room even in fed. Universities like UNILAG etc. - loafers, hangers on etc. People never saw this as babaric until these churches had to tell us that STUDENTS and SARDINES dont share same DNA!!! 4.By and large if Oyedepo has a 200,000 memebership base at its headquater alone , its only rational that of the 1800 students it admits yearly spaces would never be sufficent for all its loyal, poor and rich members alike to secure admission for each academic session. Therefore no-one should use tuition fees as a criteria for not securing a place - Money is the last phase of its admision policy, quality results and integrity of character certainly DO COUNT AS yardstick for admission there. 5.Since we all hands are never equal and spaces at the best institutions can never be for all including the rich, isnt it thoughtful that we make sure standards dont go down but we increase access to the lower class by contributing to these higher institution. Alas, as typical Nigerians, we shout down on architects of these institution. we dont task our govt. to their mandatory responsibility of a right to education yet. we turn to the Oyedepo's and Adeboye's to demand a right to education. THIS IS CERTAINLY A BRAZEN SHOW OF IGNORANCE. YOU should TELL YOUR REP AT THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY AND GOVERNORS AND POLITICAL PARTIES ABOUT THE NEED TO RESPECT A RIGHT TO EDUCATION FOR ALL and NOT THE CHURCH FOR WHICH YOU ARE NEITHER A MEMBER, A CONTRIBUTOR TO, NOR EVEN A SYMPATHESIR TO ITS CAUSE. RIGHT TO EDUCATION is guaranteed by the GOVERNMENT not private establishments like Churches mosques or any individual !!! 1 Like 1 Share |

This man is talking like another Bamitale Omole Vice chancellor of OAU, who increased d a students' school fees and was justifying his actions by saying 1. most students use sophisticated fones why can't they afford to pay 2. My children in primary schools pay close to 100k so why can't students of the higher institution pay same. stupid reasons to justify actions... |

The churches shouldnt collect tithes from the poor whose children can't afford to go to the schools that were established with the tithes the poor struggle to pay then? People whose tithe and offering is used in establishing these schools have been priced out and he is defending it? The church has gone crazy obviously. |

arsetalks: The churches shouldnt collect tithes from the poor whose children can't afford to go to the schools that were established with the tithes the poor struggle to pay then?\ Hmmm, Never seen where the church labeled offering basket for the "POOR" or one for the "RICH". Payment of Offerings and tithe is never by force, its a freewill dontation. So please MR. those giving ar no less wise than u think. they are full blodded Nigerian with thier thinking cap on. iF THEY FELT BEING CHEATED OUT THEY WOULD HAVE STOPPED OR REVOLTED LONG AGO. FOR SOME OF THESE UNIVERSITIES HAVE SPENT OVER A DECADE U KNOW. LASTLY , EDUCATION IS JUST ONE ASPECT OF WHAT CHURCH USES OFFERINGS AND TITHES FOR, AM SURE U KNOW THE CHUCH IN NIGERIA HAS BEEN ALIVE TO ITS RESPONSIBILITIES IN CATERING FOR VICTIMS OF INSURGENCY UPNORTH, FLOODING ACROSS VARIOUS PARTS OF THE NATION. FOR more info about the character of the personality u criticizing - just have a peep into his lifestyle http://davidoyedepodayofservice.com/meet-dr-david-oyedepo/ and if you yet to begin touching the lives of even ur family, a bet u should just drop a kind message for a person who has chosen to be an agent of change : http://davidoyedepodayofservice.com/drop-message/ |

Do the lecturers working there work for free??did the labourers that built the structures work for free?? Most of the people complaining about exorbitant schools fees and crying more than the bereaved are those that never contributed a dime to the establishment of these schools..I don't see members of the church who really contribute substantially to the development of these institutions making foul-mouthed noise.do you fink mantaining a university is childsplay?ask the public institutions if the subventions they collect from government every month is enough sustain them talk more of a private school..if you think education os expensive,try ignorance |

... Oyedepo, who seems to have developed thick skin to many controversial reports about him on the social media, revealed that it is a waste of time to respond to his critics. 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? Why are we wasting our time, here. Our comments does not move the manm. Period! 2 Likes |

Chartey: This man has lost touch with the ordinary Nigerian life. Which "average Nigerian" spends N1million on burials? Even the burials that have budgets of such amounts have the cost borne my many members of the extended family and a single person may not pay more than 100,000. Besides, people don't die in families every year. Children (not even child o) pay sch fees every year. Quality education is expensive, but I don't think all those management courses those private universities offer should be this expensive.

kmcutez: I wish his church members will tell him that they cannot afford to pay their tithes as it too expensive. Awon Ole.The church and the school are different entities. Tithes aren't used to run schools. You pay your tithe into the church. Plus you do that because you want to. If anybody doesn't want to pay tithe into a church because he feels that the pastor is succeeding in his personal business, he should not. Members are never forced to pay tithes my dear (except that is the case in Winners chapel sha o. I don't really know about how their church service is run). And please I really need to say one more thing. A university establishment is a business. It isn't affiliated with a church. Just because a man is a pastor doesn't mean he cannot own a business. Cut this man some slack and go to the public tertiary institutions. I went to one anyway; mediocrity at its finest! |
