That's great. As long as the man is following God's vision for his ministry, it's OK. More grease to his elbow. Every wealthy Nigerians should contribute to the development of the nation. The truth is that everything in the earth is made by God to bring HIM glory, God's children are the real owner of the resources of this world. You guys should grow big and enlarge your mind, you can accomplish great things with God on your side 1 Like |

Revolva: if he likes let him be doing the wrong thing at the right time. *Wrong thing- the nation education system is bad ,instead of him to join hand to rebuild public schools so as to carry the poorest of the poor along he is there building million dollar empire calling it education institution all for his poket ,#selfishness First off, I think you are a Fool...An Irredeemable Fool!...and a F'uckin' "Bad-Belle" Hater!...Instead of you complimenting the Dude for a Job well done, you are here castigating him for not rebuilding the Public Schools. Is he the Government? The best you could have said is for him to donate to Public Schools; donations which We all know would eventually end up in the Pockets of corrupt and thieving Vice Chancellors. In case you don't know, the best University in the World, Harvard University is not owned by any Government. It's a Private Institution...Covenant University could be the next Harvard, you know!  ...and who told you it's "unbiblical" or sinful for a Man of God to invest in Money-Spinning businesses like University Education?Once again, I think you are Fool!...Oyedepo, Carry on Joor... |

antartica: A man that accuses children of witchcraft and violently beats them up publicly in the 21st century world,a synthetic world,does not deserve to be a part of reception class for toddlers,talkless of running a university.All these your grammar is irrelevant to the matter at hand. What have you contributed to the decaying state of education in the country besides blowing hot grammar on this forum? While i would have expected the funds to be used in even upgrading Covenant uni and improving its standard while subsidizing the fees instead of building another uni, i see no reason for your argument.He is contributing to the educational sector and to deny that would be slightly daft. By the way, i am not a member of his church no a big fan of theirs. |

Have you guys wondered that the school might just be a business venture tailored to be self sustaining with the high fees while also contributing something tangible to an educational sector that is truly rotten?

The Idea alone can be from only one source. God. I say God. I mean God. With whom only nothing shall be impossible Luke 1:37. Fellow beleivers, why do some of us get unnecessarily annoyed about comments from those who sit in darkness (or lack knowledge) and are yet to (or have refused to) see the light, Matthew 4:16. Is WISDOM not too high for a fool Prov 24:7? The way of God is always not the way of man. Darkness will never, ever comprehend light when it shines John 1:5. All these mind burgling doings of God through His Son, the Bishop will soon be child-play compared to other grate ideas He has deposited in the hearts of many of His Children. - I beleive this. Bishop, weldone. God will increase your capacity to Launch out in His name and continue to direct your paths in Jesus name. I LOVE YOU. YOU INSPIRE MANY OF US IN WAY WE CANNOT QUANTIFY. MAY YOU LIVE LONG TO SEE YOUR DESIRE UPON THIS NATION, EVEN AFRICA. Please, let's us all always celebrate progress when it happens. 1 Like |

Wait, he did not go to lodge all his holdings and STOLEN money from Nigerians in the US, UK, Swtizerland, etc. Also, he has not sat on it saving it in the Nigerian banks! He has not embezzled pension funds, rigged himself into "power", advocated removal of subsidy after stealing the entire nation blind!?

Some of these people always talking about orphanages; go and ask them how much of their money goes into helping the poor as against what they spend on beer and women. Now a man is building universities where people can strive to go and improve themselves and they are shouting. How many politicians have even built classroom block for their communities?

Religion and education dont go together,especially indoctrinated religion as practice in nigeria. They are two opposite things,one stands for delusion and faith while the other represent reasoning and enlightenment. The result can be seen in africa today where the socalled educated act like babies, thugs,miscreats,rogus,thieves,beggers and destitutes, which invariably means education without porfolios. And this is so because the key factor is missing and that key factor is fundamental common sense,basic instincts that even ants have in abundance. |

While I commend the MOGs efforts I can't help but wonder why most of his interventions are elitist in nature. I mean, if this is all about improving standards, investing in Nigeria's future, building a burgeoning group of quality Nigerian leaders then there should be less emphasy on profitability and more on inclusivity not neccessarily based on welfarism. While it can be argued that quality education at tertiary level is cost intensive and almost impossible for everyone, we must be careful not to sacrifice inclusivity-even at this level-just so there can be room for quality. The problem most of our tertiary institutions have is lack of management creativity and specialization. Our management ideologies are greatly flawed just like the argument of stating that quality education is only possible if it is made available to the privileged few that can afford. If you take a good look at the American Universities in particular and the way they are run, you will see that these Universities have huge endownment fund not entirely or neccessarily from huge school fees or other traditional means of raising funds. Rather the managements of these Universities employ creative fund raising techniques that swell their endowment pool which in turn gives them greater economic stability and independence thus improving their quality and general standards, that way the cost of attainin and maintening standards is not hugely borne by the students. American Universities even seek for funds from the private sector, many of their Universities have development offices with both part-time and full-time staff that specialize in raising funds for the Universities through many techniques. Some Ivy League Universities even sell bonds to raise funds that is how they are able to raise their quality and standards without neccessarily charging cut throat school fees that makes their schools a luxury for the wealthy or super rich alone. In our own case here, the idea of a private University carries thesame old long redundant idoelogy with striking similarities with the way we run our private secondary schools where parents, sponsors and guardians always indirectly and almost entirely bear the brunt of the cost effects and processes of keeping and maintening standards and quality. If truly as these churches claim; they are building a legion of Universities that will raise quality and standards and bring it to Nigerians there by improving education in Nigeria as opposed to the orthodox idea of building a private University limited by funds only to charge exorbitant school fees that can only be paid by a very few thereby contradicting the very essense of setting up the University then we need to see some sincerity of purpose in their efforts. Currently as it is now, none of these church owned Universities are leaving up to their claims, they seem more to be verging on the idea of profit making than bettering any cause. Until an average Jo like me and very many Nigerians start seeing genuine efforts and sincerity of purpose in their claims, people will continue to sneer at their efforts and to some extent they will be justified. |

I've read several sarcastic comments on every post concerning Bishop David Oyedepo, and many at-times I've had to shake my head with a grin on my face because, I know it's all an act of ignorance that inspires these sarcasm. I would advice whoever wants to listen that, BE CAREFUL WITH WHAT YOU SAY, SO THAT YOU DON'T INCURE CURSES ON YOUR HEAD. But, wait a minute, why did I even have to convey that info when I believe you may not even read it. Well I guess it might just save your life. A word is enough for the wise. 1 Like |

Some Nigerian Religious leaders are very good in INVESTMENT that's not beneficial to ORDINARY MAN for town. Too many Graduate and No Job makes young boys divert to Yahoo or 19 jobs, what wasteful resources. It's well all the time while your Alagba is flying around in private JET competing with P diddy and Bling Bling, Nigerians shine your eyes ooooooo. |
