Wow... Impressive!
A time will come, the church will be programming 3d house printers to erect smaller church branches in a matter of hours. You just pass by a plot of land one day and the next day, it is a church complex and auditorium you are seeing.

Forbes is wrong. Oyedepo would be roughly worth the same as Abdul Rabiu of Bua.

We are. We actually need an army of bright minds directly linking to willing hands and not just random flash of intelligence we like to quickly generalize.

Great!

This guy must be a billionaire now with all these designs

Architecture is one of the most lucrative and relatively unknown disciplines in Nigeria and the world.
They make their money from school not after school

Living Faith Church really gave the guy the platform to build a very strong CV

He was also a lecturer of the school so I doubt he was paid separately for most of those projects.
If he was paid, maybe the living faith own. Definitely not the Covenant own.

I mean, when you use the same parameter of attributing church wealth to the founder.

The living faith church is easily a $3Billion + organization. So by Forbes standard oyedepo would be worth $3B not $150M

That’s nice. Oyedepo is the owner of the church. Not Jesus smiley

Quite lovely I must say. I wonder how much the early church of the Scriptures was worth! The Apostles might be billionaires in their time... who knows? cheesy

Forbes standards is too weak and therefore I consider it inaccurate. They assume you own what is under your control which can't be true all the time. That $3b would have been like $1.2b some six years ago.

Keep building religious centers while developing countries are building Innovation centers, keep pursuing heaven while your life’s on earth is a living hell . You all think you can worship or live the supreme creator ? You want to work for God as if God told you she needs anyone to show her mightiness. Una never know anything.

I wish antichristian can see this instead of Islam producing killers in Nigeria and the whole world.
