berem: Jonathan Did Not Buy Plane For Me, Says Oritsejafor
06.05.2013, 6:19 Local
National President of the Christian Association of Nigeria,
CAN, Pastor Ayo Oritsejafor, for the first time, publicly
dismissed criticisms that continued to trail his acquisition of
a private jet with some critics claiming that the gift may
have come from the Presidency.
The founder/senior pastor of Word of Life Bible
Church, Warri emphatically declared that
President Goodluck Jonathan did not contribute
a dime for the jet.
Receiving a delegation of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Delta
State chapter in his Word of Life Bible Church, Warri, last Sunday,
Pastor Oritsejafor said the private jet was presented to him on
November 10, 2012, by church members within and outside the
country in commemoration of his 40th year on the pulpit.
He maintained that over 90 per cent of the funds came from
members of the church while the rest was donated by his
spiritual children across the globe.
The NLC delegation was in the church for a thanksgiving service
in preparation for Workers' Day which held nationwide on
Wednesday.
Speaking during that service, Pastor Oritsejafor, arguably one of
the greatest philanthropists in the country and perhaps the first
CAN president to spend his personal resources to run the CAN
secretariat, maintained that concerned members of his
congregation and some of his children decided to donate the jet
in appreciation of the suffering he underwent whenever he
travelled in and out of Nigeria preaching the gospel.
"Word of Life members miss me, my family misses me greatly and
appreciating the trauma of connecting flights across the globe;
they decided to constitute a committee to raise funds for the
purchase of the jet. They reached out to some of my children in
and out of the country who generously donated to the course,"
he explained.
Oritsejafor challenged the Labour leaders to endeavour to do
their investigations and if possible use their connections in
government to ask President Jonathan if he contributed any kobo
to the purchase of the jet, noting "why will people just set out to
disparage persons without verifying their facts."
The cleric said given the nature of his work, a plane had become
a necessity, wondering why people were deliberately silent on his
annual empowerment programmes in the Niger Delta and his
numerous reach-out projects to victims of Boko Haram violence
in the North, but decided to malign his person.
"My records are there at the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria,
PFN, which I led for eight years for anybody to verify just as
people are free to come to the CAN Secretariat to make their
independent investigat-ions," he stated, adding "I pay for all my
bills as CAN president," he stated.
He also defended his call for the arrest of CPC presidential
candidate, Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (rtd) whose comments
during the 2011 electioneering campaigns are believed to have
precipitated the post-election violence that followed the
announcement of results of the election.
The CAN president had come under tremendous criticism over
the plane with Catholic Bishop Matthew Hassan Kukah describing
him as an embarrassment to Christianity while former Congress
for Progressive Change, CPC vice presidential candidate, Pastor
Tunde Bakare, said clergymen like him, taking advantage of their
congregations, and buying private jets, deserved to go to jail.
The CPC spokesman, Rotimi Fashakin recently said that President
Goodluck Jonathan on November 10, 2012, rewarded the CAN
helmsman with the gift of a Bombardier Private jet.
