Nigerian pastor admits to preaching the gospel wrongly in the past in the name of collecting offering

- A Nigerian pastor identified as Ugoeze Elendu Chukwuebuka on Facebook has sparked controversy on social media with his statement about the gospel

- Ugoeze shared an old photo of himself dramatically preaching and admitted he was wrong for being so theatrical with the aim of getting congregation to sow seeds

- He stated that the gospel is free and it shouldn't be watered down to fit worthless desire

A Nigerian pastor has released a powerful statement on the how the gospel should be presented to people. Identified as Ugoeze Elendu Chukwuebuka on Facebook, he shared an old photo of him dramatically preaching the gospel and admitted to doing so with the aim of getting the congregation to sow seeds. He revealed that he was 'foolish' and 'wrong' as the gospel is free.

His stance is clearly a contrast to the practice of many pastors scattered across the country. Elendu opined that many have to get theatrical with the preaching because adding drama will get the congregation to pay tithes and offerings.

It is the same tithe and offering famous media personality Daddy Freeze condemns till this day. To him, such a practice only enriches so-called yahoo pastors who he claims are watching most of their congregation live in penury while they purchase private jets.

Buhari’s Legacy Of Recessions By Fredrick Nwabufo

Fredrick Nwabufo ‘Why always Buhari?’ As it was in 1984 under General Buhari, so it is in 2016 and 2020 under President Buhari? Is it by the unfortunate hands of kismet that recession hits Nigeria every time Buhari takes charge of the country’s affairs? If the recession of the 80s under Buhari was a conspiracy by economic and political factors, to what do we attribute that of his first coming as a civilian President — and now in his second coming? Why does pestilence scourge the land, hunger ravage the population and lives lost malevolently when Buhari presides over the country? Why always Buhari? Buhari’s undoing is his wonted predilection for hierarchising ethnicity, religion and loyalty above competence. Since 1999, no President has obtrusively shown a more nepotistic aspect than Buhari. It is unarguable that the President arrays the most competence-challenged cabinet ever in the chronicle of governance in Nigeria. Yes, a recession cabinet. Fredrick Nwabufo Here is a cabin...
