With Nigerian being deeply rooted in religious beliefs, a lot of people tend to go to spiritual places such as churches and mosques to solve majority of their problems, one of them being money.

People seeking financial improvement dedicate their time and resources in forms of tithes and seed sowing to religious places in order to experience divine intervention on their bank accounts.

However there is a perception that most lazy people rely on spiritual help to get wealth rather than work.

It is in this light that renowned social media critic and ex-president Goodluck Jonathan’s former aide, Reno Omokri has keyed in on the matter.

He took to social media to question the motive behind people seeking financial help in churches while most billionaires don’t go to church.

In his words:-

“If people who don’t go to church or mosque are becoming billionaires, why are you still going to church and mosque to pray to God to make you wealthy? There is a difference between salvation and prosperity. You go to God for salvation. You go to work for prosperity.”

This is the same problem that is playing out in Nigerua

Some people value religion than working hard

The church is always an easy target for every Tom, Dick and Harry. Has the church ever prevented anyone from going to work?

Reno why you de spoil market for Nigerian pastors? If pastors preach this kind of message, how will they buy armani suits, lambogini cars and executive jets? Besides, Nigerians generally love miraculous money than money earned and worked for, so this your message will not sell.
The most profitable message is " to get rich and prosperous, just pay your tithes unfailingly", then back it up with some fantabulous testimonies, the dough will start pooling in.

Ok oh

true talk.
