Toks2008,

I believe your point and the essence of the thread is that no NIGERIAN pastor should own a jet for his own pleasure even when he has the money; the money should rather put into charity...or maybe lent out to members who may need it for rent.

I share your opinion to some extent. Owning jets may be unnecessary for a pastor.

However, I want to hear your opinion on these issues:

1. What should be the reaction of a pastor if he receives a gift of a jet from his congregation, or from a member of his congregation?

2. What do you think about a church, owning a jet for the convenience of the Pastor and other people in authority of the church?

3. What's your opinion about a foreign preacher or pastor who owns a jet?

I still think A pastor should sell off a Private Jet gift.
Catching flights is not as inconvenient as you think. Ask Warren Buffet.


America is not a third world country, so I don't care much about them having Jets.

LaExpert:
No wonder you're ashamed to repost your ordeal.
You requested for 6k from a church pastor, not even the church, he declined...and you concluded that most churches don't give help...and was even thinking if it was worth it to keep paying tithes there!

How ridiculous. I don't have to say anything about how poor such reasoning is, everyone here can see it.

By the way, I can list countless charitable pastors...that give help from their own pockets.

Show me someone who went to a church for help...and the Church sent the person away!

2. What should be done about the high school fees of these universities? Let me hear from you.

What about when a woman who couldn't afford her child's comes for help, only to be given the offering basket to stand in front of the church.
As expected it wasn't nearly enough.

Something the church should have given her directly from it's pocket!
Smh!

Talking about the fees, how about the church subsidizes the cost heavily, while cutting down on some other expenses like building new ultra mega theatres?

osomegbe:
It seems you don't know he is a writer also.

How many copies does he sell to be able to afford a Jet?

Though, he stated last week that he doesn't touch the proceeds of the books.

Smh, you are bigger than this ignorance…for the records i know, all the oyedepos, kumuyis, ibiyieomie of this world has their own lucrative business booming for them, they don't touch God's money that i can vouche for…serve God well He will bless you immensely...people just have this mindset that pastors are poor people, or are supposed to be poor people, utter rubbish...infact pastors are supposed to be the wealthiest, most of their problems are ignorance, some of them see venturing into business as sin thereby missing out in that opportunity to grow financially, this is where oyedepo and the likes are having an edge over other pastors...i 've alot to write but let me hold my peace here...you know i love countering your controversial threads like this one

I've been very curious.

What business does Bishop Oyedepo do?
Since you claim you can vouch for him.

kode12:
All the people complaining about her parlour and image etc just have poverty mentality and a desire for showy display. Look carefully at that woman,at her age do you think she has cares for all these flashy things? That house could well be part of the memories that bring her joy at this age. She was the wife of the Governor of Lagos state at one time do you think she hasnt seen affluence? Change anything and she might not even last a year in it. In fact look at the Femi Otedola you're talking about,see how simply he's dressed look at the 700naira kinda sandal he's wearing,but does that stop him from being one of the richest men in Nigeria? Only people with poverty mentality have a need to show off just to feel good about themselves.

The bolded is likely not true. Lol

There are simplistic but expensive sandals.

That phone has terrible reviews I think.

Make your research.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has scored in 100 of his 170 league games since the start of 2011/12. Smorgasbord.

I wish he no fucckk up those games when he dey waste chance, we for dey top four now
Better late than never Sha.

Does anyone notice the fact that Pogba has Scholes passing range?

This guy has potentials for real!

Evarock:
Naira landers shld have written d book of judges always critisizing the church ya all will surely be judged

Keep quiet please.
People are speaking the truth you're talking about judgement.

Imagine if N5 billion is used to subsidize the school fees in their university, what that would mean in this recession.

The believers brought their items together for distribution among the poor members in Acts of Apostles.
What do we have now?

If the church was more involved in charitable works, they won't even have to evangelize much before people troop to churches.

seggzz:
There is more that is more powerful than faith...

What is?
I'm curious.

OLAADEGBU:
They will only see what the want to see. The point you raised about atheists not setting up charities is yet to be debunked though.

People arguing with an ignorant man who hasn't heard of Bill & Melinda gates foundation are only wasting their time.

Mujtahida:
The person who should be cured of ignorance is you. He asked you a simple question to mention the countries where MMM has crashed. You ran to Wikipedia, copied what was written there obviously without reading it and posted it here in answer to his query. But an analysis of what you posted brings to the fore the following: how does government intervention to squelch MMM in South Africa and China equate to MMM crashing. Person wey dem kill dey the same with person wey die naturally? In Zimbabwe the rules were changed. Is that the same as crashing? Your level of comprehension is too poor and your pride on top of it is irritating. Go and learn how to read and comprehend.

Is Mavrodi an ex-convict or not?
Tell me why he was jailed for five years.

veekid:

---

why is Nairaland so biased like this? MMM has helped millions of nigerians and will continue to help,while seunn (mr self righteous ) that makes millions everyday from his >10year old site cannot even boast of helping 50 nigerian youths financially , or an empowerment program, motivational speaking, skill acquisition, nothing (unlike Linda ikeji -God bless her).
Bros just stays behind the pc, typing crap about God not existing and some folks like happney65 followsuit. Who you epp bros?

We've all learnt about MMM, thank you, & The real mavrodians know how the system works and we will continue to PH!!!

You've totally lost my respect

You have remained the same as you are on Nairaland and haven't gained any thing because you are very lazy and wont see anything good in the various empowerment schemes on Nairaland.
All you seek is free handouts from Seun and co.

GO and tell several people who have become millionaires through Nairaland that the platform is useless.
While your mates make thousands of dollars through Fiverr, Upwork, selling essential things on Nairaland, learning about imports and exports, etc. you have instead choosen to remain dependent of pennies given out by the likes of Linda Ikeji.


In case you don't know, Nairaland is a forum which covers hottest happenings in Nigeria. Politics, sports, just name it.
So What is the crime in reporting about MMM?
Is it a lie that it has been frozen?

Get a life and stop harassing Seun over nothing.


I support any scheme empowering people, but harassing people because they choose to talk about it in whatsoever way is childish.
We condemned the senate for the Anti-Social media bill, but you a youth keep harassing people with your repressive stance.


You can now move over to Linda Ikeji to wait for her usual Christmas giveaways if you are so disappointed in Seun.

BiniAE:
Hope its nt dis rice dats full of stones. Anyway madam hot rice just past

Drink water after meals not Pepsi or Coke.

hoodmenconcept:
You must be a dullard, chuddy brought mmm to Nigeria does that mean, he is a founder.
stop taking osogbo weed
olodo

you have no senses.
The man denied being associated with anything about the founding of MMM nigeria, stating that he was only a guider.

shame on your stupid logic!

The funny thing is the Chuddy guy denied being the founder of MMM-Nigeria, after the wife had already claimed he was the one who brought it into Nigeria.

If you will believe this guy is legit after this, you need help.

Nope, they didn't. Several have been tried.

I'm suspecting this might have been a software error in the first place.

Baroba:
na importation be that.. search Chinese online stores for the modular mic part, then fix in Naija.. That's one of the cons buying devices with no company presence in Nigeria..

But any mouthpiece should work I think.

Emmaesty:
With the original charger, an hour and 30 mins

Is that even possible

Who can confirm this? (charging time for L8 plus)

mikkypel:
I'm not a novice now.. I switched it off.. But now i just turned the battery saver on, it has been off all this while and about that app.. I don't know, perhaps you can teach me how to know apps that drains battery

Then another mess happened when my charger head broke when i was forcing it to a switch.. Bought a #200 own that was slow as hell, later got another one from a friend that is still manageable, thinking of buying original one but hiw does one knows it's original.. All those selling it won't tell us the truth

Ask for Amazon charger.

Original chargers are easy to spot.
They charger heads look thick and tough.
Buy the one with an output of at least 1.8A.

xolomonstrides:
No be lie ooo
L8 Plus ....is the best....
Battery last up to 1 and half day if you are the type wey no dey let phone rest without games and videos. All other features.. Superb.

Review after over 6 months of usage

How quick does it charge from zero percent?

iXavier:
It is just like Sim swap or welcome back

I paid #500 which they gave me back as airtime

Do you have to go with the sim pack?

ddippset:
story. the same way you guys would say messi wasn't outstanding in 2010, even after winning LA liga, winning copa del rey, scoring an unprecedented 4 goals against arsenal, winning the champions league golden boot, winning the pichichi. if they say Iniesta or sneider should have won 2010 then neuer should have win 2014.

Are you seriously comparing a Midfielder's match winning performances to a Keeper's?

The same Nuer Madrid thrashed in the UCL deserved to win, with Ronaldo scoring twice in a 5-0 aggregate destruction.

Don't be stupid... Ballon d or is not for a season but for a calendar calendar year. There's watching and there's thinking

Elxandre:
ole!!!
last season Messi had 41 goals 23 assists
Ronaldo 51 goals 15 assists.
stop being dishonest. some of us watch football too.

you obviously don't know that the voting has already being closed for a long time.

we all know messi has had a headstart this season, hence the seeming gap in yearly stat.


In the past, Pre Messi-Ronaldo era. what mattered was who finished the season stronger. Early season form meant nothing.

martineverest:
haters everywhere...they wont miind their thursdy nite football and how to exit mid table...all they know is how barca and messi will fail

we are embarking on a 10 game winning run.
focus on pulling back your six points deficit.

randomperson:
Oh... You want a years stats??
Ronaldo- 55 games, 51 goals, 17 assists
Messi- 61 games, 58 goals, 32 assists
Is this what u need?

ole!!!
last season Messi had 41 goals 23 assists
Ronaldo 51 goals 15 assists.

stop being dishonest. some of us watch football too.

odinese:
ronaldo didn't do shit in d euro's final, ronaldo never did shit in d champions League final and he was awarded the balon d'or...wat a joke!
If this balon d'or should be awarded to the player who played well in the champions league and euros, I think he should go to Pepe...
Ronaldo is so overrated and it baffles me that people don't see this things(especially the man u and real Madrid fans)... U guys are the most biased people on earth.
Messi deserves this balon d'or by a large margin. He won the la liga and copa dey Rey Nd got Argentina to the copa america final. Not only that he was just playing, but he was the most influential player in that field. Compared to ronaldo who was lost in the two finals...

It's high time all this favoring of real Madrid and Cristiano ronaldo stop unless all these award will be like wash...

And if u write, they will say u are hating while they know wat actually happened in that match.

He scored 16 goals in the UCl, and that's nothing?
dragging back Madrid who were almost certainly eliminated against wolfsburg with a hatrick.
Knocked out the same Wales you people thought would thrash them with a goal and an assist

2010.
Sneidjer was on fire, and was the everybody's easy guess to win the BAllon d'or
Treble winner with Inter Milan, destroying Barca in the knockout stages, World cup finalist with Holland, several match winning performances as a midfielder.
Surprisingly he didn't even make top three, and Messi won.

Hypocrite!

Iamthoney:
Like Ronaldo joined Manchester united or Real Madrid all by himself for free right? pay Messi's value to Barcelona offer him what a player of his calibre deserves only then will he jump ship...but we both know he can't cos the two clubs u mentioned are a step down for him

Madrid was a step down for Ronaldo too.
A scared chicken wouldn't have gone to a club that had been knocked out of the UCL 2nd round for 6 straight seasons.

randomperson:
This is ignorance... Messi has scored 21 against Madrid Ronaldo has scored 16.... Google of is your friend

Messi has been in La Liga for at least 5 years before Ronaldo.
KNow your facts.

Seizure:
Also, do not, I repeat, do not buy any phone from Jumia that is shipped from overseas. They get faulty within a space of less than a month and Jumia will deny you. I'm talking from experiences, be warned. These Jumia people only want to sell, they don't want to be responsible for after sales services of any kind. They don't even care about how much money you loose for placing your trust in them.

how many have you actually bought?

Emmaesty:
Tecno L8
Less than two months old

Battery lasts close to two days with H+ never switched off and heavy usage. Best phone to buy

48 hours heavy usage?

you guys can be funny.

no way any device gets past a day with actual heavy usage.
