These our ministers are stupendously rich. Not that it is bad to be. But I am stunned they have the guts to make money at the expense of the poor masses and flaunt it before them.

To consider a private jet is sickening. I am not even concerned about the cost of purchase but cost of maintenance. He has to pay parking fee, crew's insurance and salaries as well as other expenses. After a year, that even costs almost another brand jet.
MrCrackles(m): 8:02pm On Nov 25, 2008
Awon ole pasitor!! grin

Guys, are we saying he does not deserve the jet after years of meritorious service in the Lord's vineyard?

Can't we at least be happy for him?

Christ said that they should give up the world and follow him. Acquiring worldly things, is not giving up the world and following Christ.

Sheesh even the Pope flies in commercial planes. No private Jet there.

lol the pope is an even worse offender. How has he "given up the world" to follow Christ? By living in a virtual country of its own, having men bow and kiss his feet and refering to himself as Christ's vice-regent on earth? grin

All these idolatrous worshippers of men. cheesy

Why wont they afford that amount when they played Benny Hinn 419 to the tune of $4M?.

Let's pray for our ministers. They are missing it big time.
smartsoft(m): 10:58am On Nov 27, 2008
u guys can say stupids things for all care the way i understood the bible is not the same way you do  to me God didn't suffer for us to suffer for crying out loud, he went pour for us to be rich so what a heck ?

@d-baby kudos,  you all make me sick nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow
ugborikoko(m): 11:09am On Nov 27, 2008
For a man with no visible business, and simply a "man if God" i believe this guy is a theif, The money of the church is not his. Spending it on private Jets amounts to stealing.

People should stop talking of The Lord being good when it comes to money, A person becomes rich due to hard work or stealing. All God does is give us life and strengthen those who seek him.

This guy is a theif and should be put in Kirikiri

Do a quick homework . . . list all the disciples and the early christians who came to the church after the pentecost and tell me how many of them was this "rich"?
Uche2nna(m): 7:58pm On Nov 29, 2008
Well like they say, The Lord is good.
All the time!!!!

Yeah, right angry I wonder how many collection plates went round before this guy was able to purchase his jet.


I think I am in the wrong business undecided
KunleOshob(m): 4:19pm On Dec 01, 2008
I was able to confirm this story from one of the church workers in Okonwo's church this weekend. Can you imagine the mungun was actually excited his bishop was buying a private jet. This was the same Idiot that the church leadership ordered to be flogged by security guards for saying something against the church a few years ago.
Tonyet1(m): 5:05pm On Dec 01, 2008
I ASKED A MEMBER AND HE SAID HE HASNT HEARD OF ANY NEWS OF SUCH

Thats the greatest weapon these men of God in Nigeria have against people like you because they are afraid they may offend his God if they speak bad of any of his decisions. Some will even shut up if the pastor is sexually abusing their 14 yr old daughter.
MrCrackles(m): 9:14am On Dec 02, 2008
flashy pastors, indigent followers!! grin grin

Apart from the fact that i have already confirmed the Jet story from a worker in his church, i can testify to the flamboyant and exotic lifestyle of this supposed Man of God, hence i feel justified to critisize him cool

Tonye T,

Why are you cynical about the veracity of this info? I said I was part of the reportorial team that covered the event where he shared the 'good news' and someone else said a member confirmed it. What more do you need?

Thank God for being part of the show.Is it now a crime for someone to acquire anything for the sake of his mission or vision?
OR did the church complained about any missing fund or whatever?
All i think that we can do is to be praying for these our religious leaders not to miss it rather than criticising them. Thank you.

The fact that someone sets up a church business and his business is thriving does not make him a religious leader. It is criminal to use church money to indulge in a flamboyant life style under the guise of doing mission work. If he really wants to win souls for christ there are enough lost souls around him he can start with he does not need to be galivanting all over the world to do that.
