Malagans:
In your own little way, how have you improved the lives of the people around you?

It's always easier for some of you to detect other people's faults. But if u were Oyedepo, you would do worse.

Be informed that Oyedepo is also an employer of labour, massive employer at that. Also note that he's not the government and hasn't held any political position before
So, in your own little mind now, you've written something meaningful by bashing the guy for saying the obvious? How many people has he employed apart from those working for him in that Covenant University and the church workers? This is a university that doesnt serve the interest of his congregation, even when they're the ones contributing the money for the establishment and running of the said institution. Do you know how many people Dangote has employed? How many people has Otedola, BUA, Fola Adeola and Dantata etc employed? Are they in government and how many of them have ever been in government before?

Do you know that completing that Ark might have gulped tens of billions, if not hundreds? How many people would it serve?

Do you even know that the educational and other services he provides now are being the reach of the common man, even when some of them are stakeholders.

That's how many of you celebrate mediocrity.

I am a Christian, but a real and practical one. That we're Christians doesn't mean we should be foolish. It also doesn't mean we should not condemn anything that's bad.

Oyedepo is a Pastor. What's your business with how he SPENDS HIS MONEY AND RUNS HIS CHURCH. You should use your own money to build industries. You can even be doing giveaway everyday with your own money.

Malagans:
Same way God will laugh at you and zoom off when you pray to Him. He won't help or answer you.
Some of you have very hard hearts.
Someone helped you to get to where you are right now, but here you are talking anyhow.

As if you don't know how elections are being rigged here
Rigging Election is different from supporting evil...

How can large crowd of people be supporting a president that makes sure certificate forgery, age falsification etc are not bases for court proceedings at Election tribunal, ..

Abeg it's not about the. Leaders it's the followers... They live suffering and cheating so leave their suffering for them..

When u make ur own money dash it to senseless ppl all in the name of pity, u will b shocked how those same ppl will call u names because politicians asked them to call u names

I agree that some of these people actually deserve the kind of horrible and pathetic leaders they have.
But let's take for instance, I didn't cast my vote for Tinubu and he won, I'm suffering and you're in position to help me, won't you help?
You'll just zoom off?

Another building to compete the largest auditorium with his fellow pastorpreneurs.
I thought they said the world is coming to an end or Jesus is coming soon. And yet they keep amasing wealth and properties.

Building the largest auditorium
With many unemployed members and hungry members.

This pastors have some of the most expensive schools that their members can not afford

Yes it is good to build the house of God but remember they poor and hungry may not have the strength or transport fare to come to the auditorium.

Not judging anyone but churches with billions should do more in helping the poor

They have the money

You have your answer...we dont consider maintenance and this is not built with steel frame...Wonder how deep the foundation is as well.




Amotolongbo:
I wonder what’s going to be the future of these gigantic churches these pastors are building.
Many of the churches with wonderful architectural and structural designs in the UK are now being sold and converted to something else.

TAKE NOTE OF THE ALL SEEING EYE 👁️ AT THE DOME OF THE BUILDING. TRULY THIS IS THE YEAR OF MANIFESTATION.

THAT'S CLEARLY AN ILLUMINATI SYMBOL.

Lol, use your own money to build industries na. Many of you use your money to drink, gamble, lavish on girls and japa, but become professors on how a church should spend its money. Do you have more emoloyees than the church or person that you are giving advice or is it order to?

A huge liability. Something that will turn into night club and exhibition centres in few years. A complete waste of resources.

Very pedestrian take.

Your politicians steal the money that is meant to build industries for you and your kids to work and use it to buy houses in UK, UAE, USA and Canada. Yet, you see nothing wrong and you don't carry placard nor protest.

Then you want a church not funded by government to build industries for you.

Your logic is standing on its head and not its feet.

Oyebaba!!! Man with incredible faith, focus and work ethic.
This shows that if you can focus on your assignment you can achieve the impossible like the Elon Musk, Dangote, CR7 etc

Ps. I heard ibiyieomie is building a 120k capacity auditorium in Porthacourt, so it's bound to be the biggest when completed.
But this kind of gigantic projects and the preaching of his coming back not correlated. What if Jesus come tomorrow as they preached. Or they know he is not coming back again?

Good effort by him to actualize what he thinks, is the advancement of God's kingdom.
But in the real sense, all these are not necessary because. ..

John 4:21 Jesus saith unto her, Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father.

Christianity is people
Not buildings or Temples
What hour was jesus referring to? How did you know the hour had come?

Get sense in Jesus name…is oyedepo your govt? His schools have 24 hrs light but can’t hold your own terrible govt accountable…direct your anger to Tinubu or build your own charity organization.

Anyway it is the people contributing money and slaving there for another man's business, to build his empire and inheritance for his children I blame.

When Solomon build a Temple for God, with golds, are all Israelites wealthy? Churches are not meant to build business or industries but individuals.

And Dangote is in government before he built those industries. We dont need biggest church, what we neee is induatries, factories. Most of industial area like oregun industria area are now occupied by churches.
Developed countries do not operate this ways
Oga build your own industry and shut up then you’ll see how easy it is to. It’s not to pen mouth waaaa and tell another man who is a private citizen how to build his legacy when he is not Tinubu deducting tax from your account.
