All this pastors are just after their money.

The way they all fought against daddy freeze because he spoke about tithing sadden my heart,instead of them to channel that energy in convincing their members to vote rightly during election,so the situation of things can in Nigeria.

I am a Muslim but if this proposed plan is true,then it means this govt has a hidden agenda against christains in Nigeria

I dont understand where all this is going. Organizations internal affairs are not supposed to be the business of the govt except they are flaunting any order.

If it was during the time of gej by now him and adeboye for don protest. But imagine how d former tough protesters have become wailers overnight

Re: Bishop Oyedepo Fumes Over Plans By Government To Close Accounts Of Churches by Offpoint:
I don't know what transpired before the circular or threat was sent, so I won't make comment blindly because it involves my religion.


I'm more concerned about the part where no court can reverse it.. How low has the country sunk?

Me personally i know that nigerian govt has been targetting churches for long, their plan is to tax them but they dont know how to do it.

I dont blame them sha. Churches have been turned to business centres.

What kind of nonsense is this Garbar Abubakar saying? What business do you have with churches? So long as the church pay their taxes to government, you have no legal rights to close church accounts, I am not a religious person but it’s not done any where in the world to start acting like a touts because you’re handling public office.
