It is sad people expect so much from the church in a country where another seed paying religion spends govt money on their religion freely. How can a section of the population from part of their meager income start sponsoring the govt when the govt on another angle is sponsoring religious trips and fasting for other religion? Crazy !

Amberon:
How many industries have the critics built? Instead of Nigerians to hold their leaders accountable they'd rather vent their fraustrations at the church.

Metuh:

So is that the fault of your pastor?

Metuh:

They should spoon feed you

Churches.....are businesses.

CodeTemplar:
The church is already doing her bit 200%. Don't mosques too pay zakat ? Why is no one prying their eyes into their affair and demanding they take over governments responsibility also while govt collects tax and waste it ?

I don't have a pastor. I'm rather addressing the usual deflection Christians pull when talks about national development are brought up. they pretend those not holding the government accountable are not the same people trooping to churches almost 4 days a week.

They are the same set of people but it's not the fault of the pastor that his congregation members decided not to use their senses nau

HigherEd:
Meanwhile, at Winners Chapel!

Technology Hub: Winners Chapel would be building her first Technology hub very soon. Although as usual it would be routed via her flagship university - CU. It would be housed in a twin mega structure with a bridge linking it. With over 2,000 systems.

Already, the Hebron startup lab which is an integral part of CUCRID - which is partly funded by David Oyedepo Foun. Initial 1 billion naira grant has nurtured about 43 start up businesses.

CUCRID on its core mission now has over 23 research clusters with massive year to year funding from both David Oyedepo foun and the school herself. The center now serves as the place with the highest activity in Multidisciplinary research with over 162 research publications(SCOPUS) and 20% of all Nigeria's multidisciplinary research as attested by Times Higher. It is also probably the largest indigenous private funder of research in Nigeria.

There is also plans for an agro - research institute at Landmark university later in the coming months. The church is also supporting LMU in her quest of putting the first Sattelite in space right here from inside Nigeria via a partnership with Kyushu Inst of Tech, Japan and NASDRA.

The Church is also providing 15,000 housing unit which would be transforming for Ota and would be a significant church led attempt in reducing the housing deficit of 17 million unit. I

So you see Churches are doing fairly great on the development side of things. Most of them just have PR issues.

Its hard using senses when the pastors are preaching about how the world would come to an end and what happens here is vanities so people should concentrate on making heaven and relegate other things for that

Government and politicians also build churches and mosques with taxpayer's monies

AkpaMgbor:

Three vices suppressing the Nigerian populace
1.hypocrisy
2. Misplaced priorities
3. Cowardice.

Ask them if there's any pastor or church on the ballot papers for 2019 elections..Ask them how many of the elected people in government they've held accountable in governance..No they won't, they will rather look for the easy prey to vent their misplaced frustrations on..

germanized:
Well said Pastor! The idiots telling churches to build roads and infrastructure have not held the tax collecting government responsible, neither will they tell Imams/Muslims the same thing.

The government itself spends billions on religious tourism of which the muslims are the giant beneficiaries, since they claim it's a religious duty for them, unlike Christian pilgrimage that is based on choice. The politicians who died recently in Mecca went there with our collective taxes.

The politicians steal billions of dollars on a monthly basis and none of the stupid daddy fresh or daddy frozen has asked them for accountability. I pity those that will criticize foolishly based on what they read on social media.

I wonder o. And if the church provides job ppl will flood there pretending to be born again. When scandals happen among these non-born again ppl, its still d church they'll blame.

hopefulLandlord:


Majority of educated people in Nigeria are church goers and they're part of the "Nigerians" that refuse to hold their leaders accountable.

Omila pastor

Amberon:
This twist holds no water. You musn't bring your hatred for Christianity into everything. If anything Christians Constitute the majority of the people demanding accountability from the government as it is no news that the others are happy with the status quo.
