"I could not resist talking about this, early today. The number of registered churches in Nigeria is 23,216 according to the Financial Reporting Council of Nigeria. Note that these churches have branches. There may be over 2,000,000 documented church branches in Nigeria. Add to this, all the Mosques and undocumented religious houses all over Nigeria, we may be talking of 5,000,000. It calls for concern. Our major business in Nigeria presently is religion or faith marketing. Yet this business is tax free and enjoy free entry. Juxtapose this with the production base in Nigeria, you will see why we are a poor nation with all forms of recession. Last year there are just slightly about 1000 manufacturing companies still hanging out there in Nigeria. Many of them are even threatening closure. Some of the old factory premises have been converted to churches and Mosques. It is sad. These companies who produce what we eat and use in this country pay tax and go through harrowing experience to do business. They cannot afford the limousines, luxury homes and private planes these faith leaders use, yet they are the ones that pay tax which we use to build roads that these faith preachers travel. We have got many things wrong in this country. Faith without work and expecting miracles is definitely a mirage. Time to have a personal relationship with God and focus on productive work. I am a Christian and a believer but I find it difficult to accept what is going on. The starting point is to bring all churches, mosques and religious houses to the tax bracket, tax religious organizations as we tax our companies. Give them tax deductions/benefits where they spend on charity as applied to businesses Nigeria.
According to one of my Wards whom I am proud to have mentored "Nigeria would have been such a great country to live in if the passion with which churches are created is the same way enterprises are established and industries developed by individuals. With this, meaningful and gainful employment would have become a thing of the past.
In a sharp departure from what I was thought in my home when I was growing up, I suddenly realized that nobody talks about industry and hard work anymore in Nigeria but miracle.
It is so painful that the teachings of hard work, honesty and industry have been replaced with the teachings of prosperity via a divine means in my dear country.
Professor Alan Rugman, of blessed memory, thought me at Henley Business School that key factors of economic growth in any country are the presence of viable industries and strong competition within the industries.
We must all imbibe the spirit of hard work, industry, patriotism and honesty for us to grow as a nation"
That is the view of one of the 24 young and promising Business Managers that I mentor. It is a food for thought as we start the new year."

mastermaestro:
The church of JESUS CHRIST marches on and the gates of hell shall not prevail! If it were a Muslim that oversaw the implementation of this law, people would have been crying foul. Alas! A southerner who is very likely a Christian pushed for its implementation even when the minister asked him to suspend it at least temporarily.

This is a proof that in the last days, it is Christians themselves that the devil will use to fight the church! Brace up people, the antichrists are here. They are in the church already singing hallelujah like you.

But the saints will prevail in the end! Hosanna! Hosanna!

osusuallstars:
YOU ARE stupid. Which one is more important? What of the xtain sect(faith tabernacle) that don't take any drug or treatment. We need Christ more than drug

Man, the law makers can be soooooo frustrating.

what's bad if churches come together and start building an constructing roads.

obataokenwa:
Sir, this is a country full of wicked people and the govt kills industries. Nothing to encourage one to start a business. I've not travelled for almost two years now to go buy goods cos where will I get the dollar from. I've run out of stock. You talk to your bank manager, not possible. millions are pilled up in the account and it's just useless cos u only sell but don't restock. We've resorted to buying scrap from old machines. How can different people go to market with different dollar rate and u expect healthy competition? Buhari need to change his cabinet and look for experts. you don't use politicians during problems

Agbanagba1:
The vice president is Adeboye's boy.... Removing Adeboye means a definite loss for buhari in 2019.

Pebcak:

I still believe Nigerian churches should do more of humanity and charity outreach. Most churches are very rich and I mean very rich, I see a lot of similarity between politicians and pastors they amass wealth and they don't really care, honestly in my own opinion churches should not even have money in their account after paying necessary bills paying pastors etc what use is money in a church's account when there are millions of hungry kids, millions of homeless people. How do our pastors feel when they drive luxury cars and see underage kid hawking on the street.
I SAW A PICTURE OF A PASTOR IN HIS ROLLS ROYCE AND A KID WITH A TRAY OF BREAD I THINK how christian(Christ like) is that.

1 000,000 like for this.
The real economy driver largely depends on SMEs of that country in view. That is the reason why you see countries like Japan developed because they develop their SMEs and NOT Religion.
Jesus has already said that they people will make machandise of the gospel.
The country stands to gain next to nothing on economic terms if she focuses on faith.

Hold up I wont insult you because you lack wisdom if you dont understand it is above you.

In your stupidity and ignorance we need Christ more than drugs which i totally agree to but because you are retarded and your brain cells are dead and you cant think I will help u

what good does it do if people are sick and can't worhip God
God gave us the ability and knowledge to treat sickness
I have had cases of people healed by faith and also people that died because they tested God
the church of God is not the building but us ............

I can go on and on but in your stupidity and foolishness you can't comprehend

You threw civility into the wind with this submission. You can still pass the message without the abrasive words.

It's totally off bro. This one is just too much...

equuscaballus:
yes, there are mega churches in those countries. God is a major factor in any nation but the young man's point is Many ha refused to think for and by themselves. They are waiting for miracles. some believe they will make money by being pastors thus the reason for founding churches.
