daddytime:
Dundee coach...

Buhari na apprentice where this one dey...

A bigger shame on you when the man you rejected single-handedly won Athleti the league.

Okombo
He's not really a Dundee, most Barcelona fans clamoured for Suarez to leave the club, the problem is that there was no replacement before and after making the decision. Also Koeman really helped develop our youth players apart from Ruiq Puig, so he's not a Dundee...
Sports / Koeman: This Current Set Of Players Is Not At The Level Required At Barcelona by Yuncage(m): 12:50pm On May 23, 2021
After the Eibar game on Saturday, Barcelona coach told reporters that the current FC Barcelona's squad are not up to Barcelona's standard
He said "By the time we [the technical staff] arrived, the squad had already been completed. The only signing we made was Sergino Dest on the last day. This group of players, in every sense of the word, don't have the quality to play for Barca,"
He further stated "A lot of people at the club think the same. We are trying to improve the squad. There are older players, with all due respect, who have shown that they have the level for this team. Others, the younger ones, need to gain experience and will be better with time. The squad hasn't been completed properly and you can't do that in a season. [We needed that] in order to be better, more effective in front of the goal. We were the ones who scored the most goals but the conversion rate is worse than it should be at a team like Barca."

Koeman really stated the bitter truth and he's kind of right but it's disrespectful. Saying stuffs like this to public just to shift blame from himself in order to keep his job is quite demeaning. He should have voiced his frustrations to the board instead of going to the public.

Sports / Re: Barcelona Fans Only: Should Koeman Be Sacked Or Given Another Opportunity?? by Yuncage(m): 10:08pm On May 14, 2021
Messi could've added another balloon d'or to his collections if we had won the league, it's so painful to see the league title slipped away from us...We shouldn't blame only the Coach, all the players played role in our loss
Sports / Re: Barcelona Fans Only: Should Koeman Be Sacked Or Given Another Opportunity?? by Yuncage(m): 10:03pm On May 14, 2021
Bossman25:
The problem why he should be sacked is not that he sold Suarez, I was even delighted by the news....koeman was given a job at the begining of the season......He accessed the team and he Flopped with his accessment.

1. Trusting Graizmann and cutinho who were not performing, and he sugarcoated them into the starting line up.
2. When the young ( youth) where performing, He still wanted to sugarcoat the old lads into he team, which has caused loss of point e.g Langlet.
3. He didn't have a clear plan, thanks to Pimienta's youth development, the players in Barca B were ready to take the mantle.....Riqui puig, Araujo, Mingueza.....Illiax and many more......
4. A coach that was just shifting from one tactics to another, causing our loss to virtually all the big team in Europe...if we had loss by a close margin of 1-0 or 0-1 it was understandable that the team needed a striker, but we scored loads of goals this season in Laliga, so it means the lack of No 9 wasn't the problem, the problem was shipping goals left and right
5. He lacks tactical acumen, in game management, which led to over use and injuries to both Pedro and Aruajo, even Mingueza is fatiqued. He can't rotate for his life.
6. Becos of the lack of tactics he over trust the senior players to perform where as benching a youth player even if he is performing, e.g Dest vs Sergi Roberto...( Granada match)
7. Becos he is tactically inept, young players are clueless and lack direction in matches to propel them for match performance....E.g his argument with Mingueza the other day.
8. He change our formation 4 times from 4-3-3 to 4-2-3-1 back to 4-3-3 now to 3-5-2 then like that.....yet the defence still leaked goals( yet he was a defender during his playing days.)
9. He sidelined Riqui puig ( the fan favourite) simply becos of his alter ego that he told puig to go on loan...God catch am, as coutinho get injury, we ran Pedro to the ground...where as he should have rotated with Riqui puig.
10. His tactical blunder by substituting Ataujo for Roberto against levante, a match that u were using 3 defenders at the back, Roberto was not match fit yet u sugarcoated him, this same Roberto was the flop and cost us the match against Granada.......

Thanks to the youth for salvaging this season for Barca, as soon as the senior players came, our winning streak was irrelevant....thanks to Roberto......
Koeman should go.....and replaced with Pimienta even if pimienta doesn't promote with the team( this coach won a uefa youth league against Chelsea with Riqui puig, and he can develop players for the first team if given more freedom)
Koeman should Go!









He probably made some mistakes that costs us but we should note that most of the goals we conceded this season are defensive errors and we lose a lot of chances, our goals conversation rate this season is poor... You can only blame a coach if we're not creating chances...As for me, we should give the guy a second chance

paulolee:
sack him with his mediocre tactics.....he flopped in big games all tru d season except dt copa win..
a barca coach dt got just a point out of possible 6 point against madrid n athletico....dts bad
Who do you think will replace him and do better?? We're playing without a number 9, we're playing with inexperienced players and old legs...
Sports / Barcelona Fans Only: Should Koeman Be Sacked Or Given Another Opportunity?? by Yuncage(m): 8:13am On May 14, 2021
We have to think this carefully before changing coaches, we fans forget so soon why many of the coaches that came we were once excited and later wanted them sacked:
1. A time came fans wanted Luis Enrique out and he later then quit.

2. Valverde came into the pic Everyone was happy that he will do well and played defensive game and boring style of play, honestly Barca where boring to watch under Valverde many fans have forgotten and then he was later Sacked.

3. Setien came in and everyone said he did a good job with Betis and even Betis beat us when he coached them, Fans were happy because he understood tiki-take etc and we later saw how inexperienced he was, he was sacked.

4. Koeman came in and everyone was super excited because they all wanted him to coach this team, he took a team that was mentally and psychologically weak. A team with poor defensive capabilities, he asked for signings Bartomeu didn’t give him, the likes of Suarez, Vidal, Rakitic left.
He had short time to know the New signings that he almost requested for Pedri to be loan or play in B team.

He brought back the fighting spirit and was flexible to try different formations, His assistant played a role in Ajax success, he did tremendous Job with the Netherlands and was the Only coach who had the balls to coach this team in their difficult moment and crisis.

We were not expecting much from him for the first season yet he won a trophy. January he pleaded for signings of a defender and an attacker his request was Rejected.
After bringing life to this team and making us enjoy Barcelona football a bit Now fans want him sacked.

I hope we don’t regret sacking Koeman.
Sometimes we need to give this coach another chance to know if he his capable or not.
Just the way we are patient with some players we need to be patient with him

5. Now we want Pimienta Barca B coach, who has yet to take the Barca B from third division to second division I think this is it’s 3rd spell as a coach.

Now what if he doesn’t coach the team well, even in championship league... I guess we all will want him SACKED.

Then we all want Xavi, what if he flops, I guess everyone will want him SACKED.


Personally I feel out of all the coach of recent, minus Pep and Tito, Koeman has really made me enjoy Barca games sometimes.

Many fans wanted Suarez to leave because Messi and Suarez always pass to each other and made our game predictable. Now we blame Koeman for Suarez leaving and we want him back or have we forgotten the chances he always missed. I thought we said we want young and fresh strikers.

Comaparing Barca to other top teams in their league, Barcelona is not doing so bad. Liverpool are currently fighting to qualify for the championship league, likewise Juventus, Arsenal can’t qualify for European league. Tottenham has missed out of Top 4. PSG might end up not winning their league. Forget about the Bayern Munich league, it’s usually them that not a league.

The honest truth is that La liga looks so competitive because the Top 3 teams did poorly this season except from sevilla. Else one the team would have won this league a long time.


In conclusion I think the board should do want they want, THEY CAN NEVER SATISFY WE FANS, FANS WANT A COACH THAT WILL WIN ALL MATCHES AND LOSE NONE AND GET ALL TROPHY. I don’t know if this is possible with our current situation.

And Please let Pique Umtiti and lenglet leave their time is up. If we must win anything our back line must be changed completely, they are the reason for our many defeats Not Koeman.

Some of our players are too lazy, they earn much and play little.

Let’s take the Anger to the players not the Coach only. How many Coaches are we going to change for us to see some players need to be SACKED. -TEEKUN

Foreign Affairs / Biden: I Believe Putin Is A Killer And Will Pay For Meddling With U.S Election by Yuncage(m): 8:09am On Mar 18, 2021
In an interview with with ABC news on Wednesday, Joe Biden has warned Russia's President Vladimir Putin that he will face consequences if it is proven that he truly interfered in US elections.
"He will pay a price," Biden replied when asked about a report published by the office of the Director of National Intelligence on Tuesday which concluded that Putin meddled with U.S elections.
Biden went further to say “We had a long talk, he and I, when we – I know him relatively well. And the conversation started off, I said, ‘I know you and you know me. If I establish this occurred, then be prepared.'”
Biden was then asked if he believe that
Putin was a killer and he replied “I do,”

I hope this is not the start of another World War.. In my own opinion, Biden should tread wisely.

Sports / Laporta: Messi Generates A Third Of Barcelona's Income by Yuncage(m): 7:38am On Feb 02, 2021
Barcelona presidential candidate Joan Laporta has come out and defended
Lionel Messi after the contract he signed in 2017 came to light by El Mundo on Saturday night .
The report revealed that Messi could earn up to 555,237,619 euros over the course of a four-season period, yet COPE have also reported that the Argentine is still owed 63.5 million euros of this season's current salary.
"It's bad news because it's disrespectful, and because there is a mismanagement at the club it's easier for these things to happen," Laporta said of El Mundo's story.
"Barcelona 's situation is not caused by Leo's contract. Messi generates more income than he earns. We have done a study and he generates around a third of Barcelona 's total income."
Laporta pointed to the way in which
Messi has helped Barcelona win on the pitch and this, in turn, has helped make them more marketable off it.
"From 2004 to 2019 we have won 35 trophies and [Real] Madrid 22, and this, in large part, is thanks to Leo Messi ," he explained.
"Without him, we wouldn't have won so much. There are nine sportsmen in the world who earn more money in relation to the total income of a club.
"Leo accounts for a total of 8.2 percent of the club's expenditure. All the sponsors demand to have Leo."
What's clear is that the potential
Barcelona president wants Messi to stay.
"I will do my best to keep him," Laporta confirmed.
"I have indications that he is fine at Barcelona; he wants to stay and he needs to trust in a sporting project."

Sports / Ciro Immobile Wins European Golden Boot by Yuncage(m): 5:41pm On Aug 01, 2020
Ciro immobile was able to secure the
European Golden Boot on Saturday without even having to play after
Maurizio Sarri opted to leave Cristiano Ronaldo out of Juventus ' squad for the final match of the Serie A season.
This is the first time that the Lazio striker has won the award, which was held by Barcelona forward Lionel Messi after his 36 goals in the 2019/20 campaign.
Immobile has scored 35 goals in Serie A this season, four ahead of Cristiano , and he could now add to that tally when
Lazio face Napoli on Saturday night.
The Italian will now be determined to try and break the Serie A record for goals scored in one season, which is held by Gonzalo Higuain after he found the back of the net 36 times in the 2015/2016 season.
Immobile 's successes in front of goal mean that the European Golden Boot has returned to Italy, something that hadn't happened since Francesco Totti won it in 2007. Now it has fallen on the other side of Rome.

Health / Covid-19: The Man Allegedly Behind The Coronavirus Creation by Yuncage(m): 9:52am On Apr 06, 2020
If there's one thing on everyone's mind right now it's the coronavirus.
With the whole world at a standstill, people are speculating about how this pandemic came to be, with over a million people already infected and thousands of lives being claimed by the day.
Early reports indicated that COVID-19 first appeared at a food market in Wuhan, China, and was sourced back to bats.
But a number of conspiracy theories are pointing fingers at American scientist Charles Lieber as the person responsible for the creation and spread of the virus.
The theory says that the 60-year-old created the virus and sold it to China, with a video even starting to circulate online claiming he has been arrested in relation to the illness.
Those rumours, however, were a hoax.
Lieber has been arrested, though the reason for that has nothing to do with the coronavirus.
The allegations don't stop there, though.
Some even suggest he's a Chinese spy looking to destabilise the United States.

So, who is Charles Lieber and why has he been arrested?
Lieber was a director of the chemical biology department at Harvard University and he specialised in nano science between 1991 and 2011.
In 2013 he became a 'Strategic Scientist' at Wuhan University of Technology and reportedly participated in a program focusing on the recruitment of foreign researchers, though he confessed in 2018 that he was never part of that program.
Lieber has been accused of lying about his ties to the Chinese government.
The New York Times reported that he received up to 50,000 US dollars a month and 150,000 dollars a year from the Chinese university and the Beijing government to build a laboratory in Wuhan.
At the same time, his research team at Harvard had 15 million dollars invested in them from the American National Institute of Health (NIH) and the Department of Defence.
His arrest for the alleged theft of intellectual property is part of a US operation around Chinese scientists working at or visiting US universities, but nothing to do with the creation of a virus.
As of today, it's not confirmed whether the virus' origins are natural or man-made, although research indicates the former.

Sports / Drogba & Eto'o Slam Doctors Proposing The Testing of Covid-19 Vaccines In Africa by Yuncage(m): 5:27pm On Apr 03, 2020
Didier Drogba and Samuel Eto'o are among those to have hit out at reports that possible vaccines for coronavirus could be tested in Africa before being used elsewhere.

Two doctors appeared on French TV proposing using Africa as a location for testing different coronavirus vaccines to see if they work.

"Africa isn't a testing lab,"
Drogba tweeted in response.
"I would like to vividly denounce those demeaning, false and most of all deeply racist words.
"Help us save Africa [from] the current COVID-19 and flatten the curve.
"Do not take African people as human guinea pigs! It's absolutely disgusting.
"African leaders have a responsibility to protect their populations from those horrendous conspiracies."

"Welcome to the west, where white people think they are so superior that racism and debility becomes commonplace," Demba Ba tweeted. "Time to rise."

"Sons of b****es," Eto'o replied to Ba's tweet.
"Africa is not your playground."

Health / Lassa Fever Deaths In Nigeria Rise To 185 by Yuncage(m): 8:00am On Apr 03, 2020

The Centre in its Weekly 13 situation report noted that Nigeria has been battling a Lassa fever outbreak since the beginning of the year with 951 confirmed cases.
Although the NCDC stated that there was a decline in the number of cases for four consecutive times, a total of nine persons died in a week.
The report revealed that last week no fewer than 176 deaths were recorded.

NCDC report stated that 19 cases were reported for Week 13, compared to 28 reported last week. These cases were reported from eight states – Edo, Ondo, Ebonyi, Bauchi, Taraba, Plateau, Kogi, and Delta. The decline, according to NCDC, in new cases might be explained by the beginning of rainfall in some parts of the country.
According to the report, three states, Edo, Ondo and Ebonyi, still have the highest number of cases from the outbreak. “Of the confirmed cases, 72 per cent are from the three states: Edo, 32 per cent; Ondo 32, per cent, and Ebonyi eight per cent. The five states with the highest number of confirmed cases are Edo with 309 confirmed cases and 39 deaths; Ondo, 305 confirmed cases and 43 deaths; Ebonyi with 72 cases and 15 deaths; Taraba with 55 cases and 21 deaths and Bauchi with 42 cases and 18 deaths. The predominant age-group affected is 21-30 years”

Health / Covid-19: Vaccine That Could End The Pandemic Is Being Tested In China by Yuncage(m): 6:25am On Apr 01, 2020
There are finally signs of some good news in the fight against the coronavirus.
Scientists in Wuhan, where the illness originated, are currently carrying out clinical trials of a coronavirus vaccine.
The Chinese Embassy in Spain's Twitter account shared a tweet that pointed out that the vaccine was undergoing trials.

Around 5,000 people in Wuhan have signed up as volunteers for the vaccination and 108 of them were able to participate in the first phase.
Participants will then spend a period of time in quarantine, where they will follow guidelines and communicate through WhatsApp groups.
It will take at least a month to know if the results are as expected and, if they are, then the vaccine's chief scientist Chen Wei says "they can end the pandemic".
"If the initial results show that it Is safe and it produces the desired results, we will test it abroad," Wei explained.

Health / NCDC Confirms 11 New Cases Of Coronavirus, Total Rises To 81 by Yuncage(m): 2:49am On Mar 28, 2020

The recent report is coming a few hours after the NCDC confirmed five new cases of the disease (3 in FCT and 2 in Oyo State).
This brings the total new confirmed cases on Friday to 16.

The Lagos commissioner for health, Prof Akin Abayomi, Friday has said that Lagos State may be seeing up to 39,000 cases of COVID-19 in the state, going by the number of cases imported into the country already.

Sports / Was Messi A Worthy Winner Of The Best Award? by Yuncage(m): 8:09am On Sep 24, 2019
Lionel Messi beat Virgil van Dijk and Cristiano Ronaldo to the 2019 The Best FIFA Men's Player award.

But was it a deserved triumph for the Argentine?

He scored 51 goals in 49 matches between LaLiga Santander, the Copa del Rey and the Champions League, along with 21 assists.
Not only was he the Golden Shoe winner, but he was also the top scorer in last season's Champions League.
Is there a more objective stat and a more decisive stat in the sport that that of goals?
This is the same debate we have every year and I'll always say the same thing.
Titles depend on the collective and awards like The Best and the Ballon d'Or are for individual performances.
As much as it might not sit well with some, Messi was undoubtedly the best in this sense.


Messi had another Messi year. He was the best player at Barcelona
and in LaLiga Santander, there's no doubt.
But football, as far as I know, isn't an individual sport and I think the debacle of Anfield , the Copa del Rey final defeat and a forgettable Copa America should play a part in this decision.
These were three major setbacks that would have completely ruled out any other player from the running.
Messi pulls Barcelona forward like nobody else, but his team got to where it got to.
On the other hand, Virgil van Dijk was the best player at Liverpool
and of the Premier League and he led his team to victory in the Champions League final.
I sincerely believe that this shifts the balance towards the Dutch defender

Celebrities / Nigeria's football Legend; Kanu Nwankwo’s 14year Old Marriage Is Falling Apart by Yuncage(m): 8:02am On Jan 25, 2018
There is a raging storm in the household of Nigerian football legend, Kanu Nwankwo. His wife, Amara recently called out her brother in-law, Ogbonna who recently welcomed his baby with his new bride, Laura Ikeji.
Amara accused Ogbonna of interfering in her marriage and trying to kill her and her kids. She wrote on his page; "You have never allowed Kanu to be in peace with his family. You tried that with me all these years thinking I will die and now you want to come near my children".
Amara called him out after he shared a photo from Leeds football match, in her rant she wrote; “You are a coward and liar. That’s my sons ticket. He was supposed to follow his dad to the Leeds game today but no. Oloshi oloriburuku. Borrow pose. @ogbobekee1, don’t mess with my children’s things or their dad.”.
Sadly, this rant and the embarrassment that followed has led to a rift in her home. The couple who have been married for over 14years and blessed with three kids have unfollowed each other on their social media pages, leading to speculations of a split. Media reports claim, that friends and family have moved in to settle things between the two before things escalate. However, should the situation deteriorate, fingers will be pointed at Laura Ikeji’s husband.

Sports / OFFICIAL: Barca Agree Mina Deal by Yuncage(m): 12:12pm On Jan 11, 2018
Barcelona have confirmed their second signing of the January transfer window with the announcement that they have agreed a deal for Yerry Mina.

The defender will sign a deal with Barcelona that runs until June 2023 and will cost Ernesto Valverde’s side €11.5 million.
The Colombia international will have a release clause of €100 million.

Details of Mina’s presentation are set to follow but it’s likely to be Friday as Barca are in action tonight against Celta Vigo in the second leg of the Copa del Rey.
Mina’s arrival is expected to mean the end for Javier Mascherano who is expected to complete a move to China this winter.
Welcome Yerry Mina!


Born on 23 September 1994 (Guachené, Caucas, Colòmbia), Yerry Mina arrives at FC Barcelona to reinforce the central defensive positions. He will bring a physical presence as his 1.95 metre frame suggests but he is also a quick, ball-playing defender. The Colombian, who is joining from Palmeiras, uses his aerial prowess to impose himself and score goals.
In fact, in his 49 games for the Brazilian side, Mina has scored nine goals. He has also scored another three with the Colombian national team with whom he has now made nine appearances since his debut on 8 June 2016.
Yerry Mina’s sporting career started in his hometown of Guachené, where he played as a midfielder. It was not until the age of 19, when he signed for Deportivo Pasto de
Flabio Torres, when he moved back into central defence. He continued in this position following his move to Independiente de Santa Fe, where he established himself as one of South America’s most promising players in the position before securing a move to Palmeiras in 2016.
Despite his youth, he has shown his ability. In fact, in his first season with the Brazilian team he was chosen as the best centre back of the Campeonato Paulista in 2017. He has won a Torneo Finalización (2014), a Colombian Superliga (2015) and a Copa Sudamericana (2015), with Santa Fe, as well as a Serie A with Palmeiras (2016).
Yerry Mina now comes to Barça with the opportunity to continue developing as a footballer following his move to Europe. Without a doubt the Colombian has the potential to make it.

Events / David Oyedepo Is The Richest Pastor In The World – See Forbes List!!! by Yuncage(m): 10:37am On Jan 11, 2018
Forbes announced Oyedepo as the richest pastor ahead of other pastors in Europe. Oyedepo heads the single largest church in the world, which is otherwise known as Winners’ Chapel.
As one of the main founders of the Nigerian Christian Charismatic movement, he also exerts control over churches in 45 African nations, as well as several in Dubai, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Also in the list include Pastor Chris Oyakhilome of the Believers’ Love World; T.B Joshua of the Synagogue Church of All Nations; and Pastor E.A Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God, RCCG.
See the full list below according to Forbes…

10. Joseph Prince Net Worth 2018 – $5 Million
Head of the largest church in the all of Asia and netting a salary of $550,000 a year, Prince could easily be seen as blessed. Born to a Sikh priest and previously employed as an IT consultant, his unlikely career has garnered a grand following worldwide from his native Malaysia to the United States. This popularity is partially thanks to such friends as Joel Osteen of Lakewood Megachurch who has hosted a number of his sermons. One of the most internet savvy of the pastors listed, Prince also has a online video and podcast with a following from over 150 countries.

9. T.B. Joshua Net Worth 2018 – $10 Million
Considered a Prophet by most of his congregation, Joshua has a unique and notable influence in his native country of Nigeria. While primarily preaching from his home city of Lagos, Nigeria, Joshua has over 1.5 million Facebook fans. He also has a history of sending “Anointed Water” to thousands of individuals worldwide, most notably during the recent Ebola crisis. There has been ongoing controversy regarding his claims to deliver people from possession, and there are 3 reported deaths in the U.K. linked to his church. These were reported to be cases where the individuals refused life lengthening AIDS medication and instead relied on prayer for survival.

8. Billy Graham Net Worth 2018 – $25 Million
Once called by many as “America’s Pastor”, Billy Graham is among the most well known and long-lived pastors on the planet. Born in 1918 and educated in Anthropology and Biblical Studies by the Trinity Bible College in Florida State, he has been a presence for many historic events of the past two generations. From bailing Dr. Martin Luther King Jr out of jail during the fight for Civil Rights, to directly writing and supporting Nixon during the Vietnam war, he has always been quite political minded. This fact has no doubt helped his following, with an estimated audience of around 2.2 Billion individuals over the course of his career.

7. Kenneth Copeland Net Worth 2018 – $25 Million
Best known for his messages about prosperity and abundance, it appears Copeland can reference quite a bit of firsthand experience. Before his conversion to Christianity he had commercial success as a recording artist, releasing 1957’s “Pledge of Love” which made it to #17 of the top 40 billboard hits of the year. Copeland has had a lifelong love for flying as well, which allowed him after conversion to become the personal pilot of Oral Roberts before starting his own ministry and owning his own private jet (admittedly paid for by church donations). Copeland and his family also reside in a $6.3 million estate, where television audiences are invited to sit around the table with the family on “Believers Voice of Victory”.

6. Creflo Dollar Net Worth 2018 – $27 Million
With Dollar in his name, was there any doubt this pastor would appear on such a list? Known as one of the flashiest of American Ministers, he owns a Rolls Royce, multiple $2.5 million dollar estates and in recent years been given an F by the Ministry Watch for financial transparency. To make matters worse, Dollar was arrested in 2013 for allegedly attacking his own daughter but the charges were dropped after agreements to join anger management groups. He like quite a few of his comrades in this list preaches almost exclusively the “prosperity” gospel. While receiving a Bachelor’s in Science for Education from West Georgia College, it appears this pastor has yet to learn the intricacies of “Do unto Others”.

5. E. A .Adeboye Net Worth 2018 – $39 Million
Enoch Adejare Adeboye began his career in preaching while still maintaining a professorship at the University of Lagos, Nigeria. It appears his Ph.D. in mathematics continues to serve him well, as membership numbers of his Redeemed Christian Church of God continue to swell in over 100 countries. Adeboye has claimed a goal to put a church “within 5 minutes” of every home in the world. With 14,000 branches in Nigeria alone, it seems he has done so for at least one country.

4. Benny Hinn Net Worth 2018 – $42 Million
Benny Hinn is perhaps the most openly controversial of any American Televangelist. Publicly claiming a gospel that empowers “faith healing”, he has been investigated by the United States Senate for manipulation of tax status, and his Ministry has been flagged with a “Donor Alert” by Ministry Watch. Regardless of this shady financial situation he continues to have a solid fellowship in both Canada and the United States. Followers of his teachings believe that if they are prayed over, they can be healed of any malady. Among his many luxury possessions is a Gulfstream G4 jet.

3. Chris Oyakhilome Net Worth 2018 – $50 Million
Yet another Lagos native, “Pastor Chris” has an incredibly busy schedule to go with his wealth. His Believers’ Loveworld Incorporated not only contains an absolutely massive fellowship branch, but also branches for humanitarian aid and education. He also owns three separate television channels that garner up to 2.5 million views per nightly event. As is common for someone with the “faith healing” gospel, there is some backlash, particularly from the Treatment Action Campaign against his claims of faith healing AIDS. As an interesting aside, as of 2017 South Africa is considering a warrant for his arrest if Oyakhilome and his organizations do not become more financially transparent.

2. Bishop T.D. Jakes Net Worth 2018 – $147 Million
Head of the Potter’s House Megachurch and Potter’s Touch television program, T.D. Jakes is a common face on many national broadcast stations. Jakes has also been seen with both Presidents Bush (during the Hurricane Katrina aftermath) and Obama (leading a morning church service in 2009) who have both commented on his faithful intents and actions. This is particularly notable, as both his Bachelor and Masters of Arts degree came from an unaccredited institution, Friends International Christian University. Though he does make a sizable yearly sum as a pastor, most of his wealth has originated in sales of his gospel music (for which he has won at least one Grammy award), books and numerous syndicated appearances. As it turns out, T.D. Jakes is also of Nigerian heritage, which was proven when he allowed for his DNA to be tested for a PBS program.

1. Bishop David Oyedepo Net Worth 2018 – $150 Million
Coming in as a supposed host of the Holy Ghost with the most, Bishop David Oyedepo heads the single largest church in the world, Winners’ Chapel, which seats 50,000. As one of the main founders of the Nigerian Christian Charismatic movement, he also exerts control over churches in 45 African nations, as well as several in Dubai, the United Kingdom and the United States. Having been mentored by Adeboye, it is quite clear he took the formula of church expansion up a notch. Alongside churches, there has also been active outreach within his native continent where his ministry has aided in the development of hospitals, schools and maternity homes. As to be expected with such successes, two of his sons are following in his footsteps by heading up both the London and South African Winners’ Chapel divisions.
