How Oyedepo's Living Faith Church Paid Graduate Pastors N38,000 Monthly — Another Pastor Opens Up

Another pastor, who was among the 40 recently sacked pastors by the Bishop David Oyedepo’s Living Faith Church, has explained how pastors who were graduates got N38,000 as salaries.

The pastor noted that the gross salary was N53,000 but they were paid N38,000 as the rest was supposed to cover for pension and housing allowance.

The victim, who preferred to speak on condition of anonymity, noted that the money deducted for pensions was not even remitted to their bank s until their sack and outrage went viral.

He said, “Oyedepo and his senior Pastors knew they would sack us before employing us. That was why they gave us employment on probation. Someone went online to post lies in of the church that the recently sacked pastors were being paid N80,000 and house rent of N150,000.

“I will just say a little here; no employed pastor was paid N80,000 in the church. The highest salary is for degree holders which is N53,000 and, this N53,000 is not the net salary at the end of the month. The pastor will only receive N38,000 at the end of the month; N6,000 goes to the pension and N9,000 goes to house rent .

“It is very funny that the pastors, we honoured, could keep the money they removed from our salaries in their personal bank s for long without paying into our pension s. It was when they sacked us that they started paying into the pension s. Imagine that.

After collecting hundreds of millions in tithes & other stuffs.

Tomorrow somone will open their mouth and invite me to come church

RUBBISH!

N38k?

I don't know what to say, but all I know be say on judgement day, make Dem help Jesus get plenty koboko and enough glucose because naa from heaven gate he go start beating like he do for inside temple...

Oyedepo wish way? Why will you sack someone from Church, if they are nt producing growth u expected is sacking the solution? Are the pastors not church member, u could actually repost them to anoda church under anoda pastor so as to learn and transfer anoda pastor to that church, when you are paying someone as low as that and u expect them to sit in church or go around everywhere 24/7 to improve the church without doing extra job in nt possible, if truly they are doing God work and not urs so u don't any power to sack anyone

#38,000 in a month! Yet, they'll still pay tithes, offerings, etc How much money will then be left for them to take care of themselves and families? I never knew pastors were meant to collect salaries, I thought they were doing the Lord's work? You no suppose collect salary, yet dem still sack you.
Will Oyedepo be happy or quiet if he was getting #38K per month??
Or is Oyedepo a_PIMP?

Extortions and slavery is now the practice right from the Churches but I don't blame them they are also Nigerians

That's the salary range CAC pastors get also

Yet mumu Pastors would be remitting huge some in tithes and offerings to zonal headquarters ...

This mumu Pastors anchor atleast 5 programs weekly some do counseling, night vigil , guest lecture , wedding ceremony, naming ceremony, public evangelism and house calls


Anyways Oyedepo didn't force anybody, they read the contract and of agreement and gladly signed



.

I sincerely feel for the religious ones in this country and Africa in general because religion is the biggest scam in the history of mankind especially Christianity. Even the white people who brought Christianity to our ancestors do not practice it today because they know it is all rubbish, filled with lies, deceit and too many inconsistencies.

Let me enlighten you if you disagree. Do you know there was no ‘Garden of Eden’? It was just a story told by the Jews, their own version the origin of the world, just as many civilizations such as the Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, Kushites, e.t.c had their own stories of creation.

Also do you know that Job never existed. Yes the so-called faithful man in the bible. He never existed. Just another story told by the Jews. There are many more I cannot write here.

Wake up my people! Wake up!

More industries, science and tech facilities, less churches and mosques. That is the only way forward for Nigeria.

People trying to dig and make words out of the sacking which took place recently but when I see anything that comes between God and man, I flee from being the judge. Who gave me the right of a judge over the affairs of God and man.. T. B Joshua just left and one day we'll go as well.. Let's be careful of our utterance before we experience the situation of Martha, sister of Moses..

Hmm. I'll like to see their payslip.
With this kind of salary, it will be difficult to go out to win souls especially when you have a family.

Okay

And he is making billions monthly

Them fit remove something from offering money

That's more than the minimum wage paid by the Government. And the Government is surely richer than Oyedepo.And he also doesn't owe salaries
But nonentities who are ing various state governments owing salaries will still come and bash Oyedepo.

Nawao
Discouragements everywhere, even in the house of God, and he is flexing on Private Jet

Wahala

Lmao . At least he’s paying above minimum wage lol

Bishop! Sorry, MD/CEO on roast.

Sincerely, the abrahamaic faiths in Nigeria don cast big time.

Christianity is full of business minded con-men and other shady characters.

Islam is straight full of deluded, psychopathic murderers with a stone age mentality.

Ever wonder why Nigeria gets messier daily despite the high propagation of these two?

Because the pastors are expected to attract money to themselves.
It's like marketing businesses, they pay you small, then you earn the rest yourself. That's why as a pastor, you are supposed to have charisma to attract . The bring the money

It is well

Leave this ppl for God to judge ojare.
If only we all can kind our business in dis country...

The business...

And you expect me not to have side hustle. Anyways, being a pastor is not my calling.

Religion is the greatest problem to the black race!

Na sheepishs matter..

Make I waka jare

Noted

lmao
