CAMA LAW:
FOR THOSE COMPARING THE UK GOVERNMENT WITH NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT
-Pastor Dennis Woruka Jnr
To those of you who think the Government regulates Churches in the UK and as such, the CAMA Bill in Nigeria should stand.
I am a Pastor in the UK. This means I can speak on this issue.
As a Church in the UK, you are seen as a charity. The UK government gives grants to the Church. For example, the government can give you £50k (N30 million Naira) at the end of the year based on how much your Church performed that year.
Because of this, the Government checks your finances to ensure the grants given to you are merited. This is how the UK Government regulates churches.
The CAMA Bill does not make any sense in Nigeria, because the Nigerian Government, to the best of my knowledge, does not give any form of grants to any Church in Nigeria. How do you want to regulate the finances of the Church , to the extent of changing her board, when the Church does not benefit from you, financially.
Therefore, stop comparing the UK Government with Nigeria in relation to this CAMA Bill.
I am not against the government tracking down fraud or any form of money laundering.
Please note:
My Church (Fountain of Souls Ministries Int'l UK) has never collected any form of grant from the UK Government and we do not intend to do so.

Always copying the bad side of other countries laws and policies. ...

Sorry, CAMA is here to stay. Only the replacement of the head should be forward to National Assembly for readjustment

CAMA is our religious leaders Karma

Tell them.
Our people have been brainwashed to swallow every demonic policies of Buhari

TheSERAPH:
CAMA OR NOT. The gate of hell cannot and will never prevail over the church. I bind every spirit of anti-christ in the Nigerian government

The same scripture you are quoting says obey your Government, God in Heaven has put them there.

Zombie was it President Buhari that drafted the amended Companies & Allied Matters Act, or the National Assembly? MuMudey.

When America & Britain were begging Nigeria to go easy on Homosexes did we bulge? General Overseers want to run churches like businesses for profit, but don’t want to be regulated like a business?

have you studied the CAMA law wholly?
*A section of it gives government the power to appoint anybody into the board of directors of churches,mosques and NGO
///IMAGINE,a situation where a Muslim is appointed into church board or Christians appointed into NSCIA board
FYI,Muslims will revolt, cause they mostly collect millions from Saudi and other Muslim countries for the propagation of Islam in Nigeria
Shame on Osibanjo the fake pastor and fake lawyer

Just a look at your rashy picture shows how mumu you are.
An executive Bill, signed into law by the president and you are here saying rubbish.

What is wrong if a Muslim is on the board of a church? Can’t I put my Muslim Brother as a trustee in my church? Haven’t Christians donated to the building of mosque, ie Okorocha, Orji Kalu?

Na true but your Senators & House of Representative members voted in support of the bill? Or was it passed by the President, or only assented to by his Excellency?

The same scripture you are quoting says obey your Government, God in Heaven has put them there.

That same God intervened on behalf of Shadrach, meshack and Abednego including Daniel when the government imposed Draconian and anti God policies in the country.

God will always fight for His people when the Government is impose anti God policies.
Just watch and see.

If you are collecting money from them, you are obligated to show them your AGM and audit report.

Old Testament, the Jews were been punished for 70 years for their disobedience to Jah, he put Nebuchadnezzar there for that purpose. Jesus Christ said respect authority, if you don’t have respect for your earthly Government, how can you have respect for the Government in Heaven?

Lol,abeg go relax
Donating towards church or mosque building doesn't make you board member
abeg go read acts of operating an NGO

All monies are scrutinized for Uncle Sam, & Uncle Tom’s sake, believe me the Feds & IRS are watching, you will go to jail in a jiffy, no I beg, or you pay the Government their share + interest.

You don't deserve my conversation. Please get lost

Igbochief001:

In all honesty all the Government is looking for is their share from the free money the church is receiving, they must pay their own share in taxes, the days of making money in the name of God without accountability is over. Religious institutions will collect 10% of your income in the name of tithes,& other monies pounds, Dollars, in the name of offerings, but don’t want to pay taxes to Big Brother, isn’t that ironic?

They ask for how the total money is spent because you are registered as a charity organization and collect money from them.

Those churches not registered nor collect money from them, are not required to show them anything.

There's no need quoting you based on your comments but your moniker revealed how confused you are. favor419 and a male disguising as a female to package your 419 heritage.

Where does it say I've got a fuss? It should be optional to register like in other countries and scrutinizing their financial dealings should be like in other countries too where the government give them money from the charity funds. If you don't give them money then mind your business.

I don't see any reason why church financial dealings should not be submitted to government

absolutely no reason they should be scared
