Veteran actor, Patrick Doyle is of the opinion that it is insensitive for members of a church to celebrate the birthday of their founder by buying him a Rolls Royce at this time when many Nigerians can barely feed themselves.
His post comes barely 24 hours after the founder of the Living Faith Church, Bishop David Oyedepo, was gifted two Rolls Royce Cullinan at his 70th birthday party.
In an apparent reaction to the news, Doyle opined that the money used in purchasing the luxury cars could have been used to erect structures that would be of benefit to the general public. His post reads;
‘’In these austere times, we all need to be sensitive how we mark landmark celebrations for ourselves or in honour of persons we hold in high esteem. We should even be sensible enough to tone down the public appearance of our affluence. Now is not the time to ride around our streets filled with hungry and despondent Nigerians in our luxury cars.
I personally know of a friend of mine who has a Rolls Royce and many other luxury cars in his fleet. He now drives around in a Ford Escape, not as a show of false modesty, but as a gesture of sensitivity to the prevailing hardship in the land. Sadly, not many others in his socio-economic class are doing the same thing. The insensitivity of the elite may very well provide the spark for the long anticipated revolution Nigeria needs for a reset. I am still in a wonder bubble how or why congregants of a denomination chose to celebrate the birthday of their founder by buying him a Rolls Royce at this time.
In my naive opinion, I find it to be insensitive in the extreme"

They should have bought horse 🐎 or camel 🐫 for him, as if he is the one responsible for people's suffering
Bororo, keep quiet. Apart from Lagos State, no state has number of workforce Bishop pays every month. Do your findings. Oyedepo has blessed many Nigerians than many states in Nigeria directly
He deserves the latest airplane ✈ if he so desires...happy birthday PAPA...God bless you more sire.
It's easy for a Carmel to enter through a needle than for rich man to go to heaven. It doesn't apply to Nigerian pastors. Vanity upon vanity all is vanity only applies to members. Abeg his members ain't complaining, they have eyes but can't see. Hahaha only in Nigeria that their business boom, just like Betting industry it's targeted to poor people.
How many write up have you done against your bad Government that invented poverty and poor living standards. Leave the MOG alone and face your failed Government
Please honorable Actor... please do your part and mind your business.... it didn't occur to you that the gift is a reflection of the massive impact he has made in the lives of these people? "The quality of seed (investment/impact) sown is determined by its harvest (gratitude/outcome) expressed.
So people just like drinking Panadol for other people's headache. If you were offered the same gift on your birthday, won't you accept it? Some people just can't stand the success of others.
