X-factoria: 1. If he has to use the first year in settling political associates then he is really no FRESH AIR! Just same of the same. 2. IMO the past one year plus should have been his stabilizing period (according to him). By now he should have a plan of what he wants to achieve and should hit the ground running as soon as he is sworn in. |

Kobojunkie: 1. How did you come to a conclusion on that? Cos I know i answered some of his questions, though i dont claim to be a know it all. 2. As i pointed out earlier someone has to volunteer to go and ask him that cos i dont think he's on NL. |

To be honest, i opened the thread with an open mind simply because i initially thought the dude made his money in gold business before moving into the ministry, but i was gobsmacked when i read his profile and nothing in it shows that he's been doing business previously before his calling. This will mean that he became a billionaire profiting from the people who attended his church, to think some people find this right is totally beyond me. Hmmm gold business? Is he from Ghana? Why were you checking out his profile in the first place. Hmmm Are you a christian? |

violent: [b]1. Does this mean that because some rules/ commands in the old testament are no longer being practise, tithing which was also mentioned in the old testament should be done away with. That is saying that the whole old testament is no longer relevant - which is not the case. 2. You seem to have the assumption that tithe is such a big amount and so that is where the bulk of church money comes from, i think offerings are more than tithes. For example if I earn 100,000, my tithe will be 10,000, it is very possible that i give an offering(sacrificial or otherwise- wont go into purpose now) of 20, 30, or 40 thousand which is far more than my tithe. I know a lot of people who give offerings which are a lot more than their tithes. At least the new testament talks about offering, so i know u wont argue with that 3. Lastly, i wont go into quoting scriptures or otherwise as to if tithing is wrong. I will only talk about what i have experienced (as the hausa man will ask if u try to sell a medicine to him - have u had this type of ailment before?), I tithe in obedience to God's word (bible) and i can say that i receive the blessings of tithing. If any pastor is living an ostentatious lifestyle presumably on my tithe/offering then it is left for him and God. I do know however that some (note some) churches have systems in place - church board, accounting etc with laid down procedures on how church funds are spent. Some of these pastors dont even receive salaries from the church (again) and do preach that church money is God's money and not the pastors money. My 2 cents! [/b] |

Yes, the topic is exactly what it says! I am looking for opinions of broad minded knowledgeable Nigerians here. 1. How did Bishop David Oyedepo become so wealthy? I have done a bit of research into the dude's profile and all i seem to get is; Quote David O. Oyedepo, affectionately called Papa by his followers (born September 27, 1954) is a Nigerian Christian author, Preacher and the founder and Presiding Bishop of Living Faith Church World Wide also known as Winners Chapel and its affiliated International churches known as Winners Chapel International, with headquarters in Ogun State, Nigeria. He is also the senior pastor of the acclaimed Faith Tabernacle,a 50,000 seat church auditorium reputed to be the largest church auditorium in the world by the Guinness Book of Records.[1] The Winners Chapel network of churches is present in over 300 cities in all states of Nigeria, as well as in over 63 cities in 32 African Nations, Dubai, the United Kingdom and the United States of America. Oyedepo has been seen as one of pioneers of the Christian charismatic movement in Africa and has been referred to as one of the most powerful preachers in Nigeria. . . . .blah blah blah blah! No products sold, no tangible services rendered even the business model is not clear, and yet this man seem to have "grown" into riches! and he's now measured in billions! 2. The intriguing question is, what exactly is the breaking point in his life? when and how did he make his first Million? Every successful wealthy man seem to have a story in which tears, blood and sweat was shed, what exactly is this man's story? What lessons are there to be learnt from his story? 1&2 You can book an appointment for an interview with him, he would be in the best position to answer your questions violent: this has been answered by these cinzo: cinzo: violent: The church does a lot of CSR and charitable deeds. One just needs an open mind to see them. |

Politics / Re: Ajumobi Is An American, So Akala May Still Be Governor Of Oyo State by duno: 2:45pm On May 20, 2011 |
Posted by: edicolove Insert Quote Quote Section 182 from which the suit is being filed under says: 82. (1) No person shall be qualified for election to the office of Governor of a State if - (a) subject to the provisions of section 28 of this Constitution, he has voluntarily acquired the citizenship of a country other than Nigeria or, except in such cases as may be prescribed by the National Assembly, he has made a declaration of allegiance to such other country; Quote 28. (1) Subject to the other provisions of this section, a person shall forfeit forthwith his Nigerian citizenship[b] if, not being a citizen of Nigeria by birth,[/b] he acquires or retains the citizenship or nationality of a country, other than Nigeria, of which he is not a citizen by birth. (2) Any registration of a person as a citizen of Nigeria or the grant of a certificate of naturalisation to a person who is a citizen of a country other than Nigeria at the time of such registration or grant shall, if he is not a citizen by birth of that other country, be conditional upon effective renunciation of the citizenship or nationality of that other country within a period of not more than five months from the date of such registration or grant. I think the bolded is clear - he will be disqualified if he is not a citizen of Nigeria by birth (which he is - i hope) and has acquired/ retained the citizenship or nationality of another country. |
