Man quits church as pastor, who has 5 cars, tells congregation to contribute to buy wife a car

A man has revealed that he stopped attending his church after the pastor asked members to contribute money to buy a car for his wife.

In a post shared on X (formerly Twitter), the man explained that he left the church after the pastor, who already owned five cars, told the congregation that his wife, “Mummy,” did not have a car and urged them to donate towards getting her one.

He wrote: “I left my former church the day my pastor with five cars told us, ‘Mummy does not have her own car. Let’s get her one.’ I knew I was in the wrong place.”

Though he did not disclose the church’s name, his revelation sparked reactions online, with many social media users flooding the comment section to share their thoughts.

@HonNonsoNwankwo: “I learnt from my dad that whenever a pastor ask for what I cannot give my own family, or ask for money to buy what he can live without, quit & run. That’s not God’s church but Pastor’s shop.”

@DamonAss101: “Me I left the day they were forcing me to speak in tongues.. I told them speaking in tongues, you have to be filled with the holy Spirit as a herd but this guy was practically teaching me to say macacasaba koboloko lala.”

@It_Chioma: “This is so shameful and you will think it is made up. Some of these men don’t know God.”

@Uzanethegoat: “my priest in a Catholic Church started calling offering from 15m that’s when I realized it’s all business.”

@IykeNwaObi: “So you ran away because you don’t want to buy mummy GO car? A whole mummy GO.”

@gskodam: “I stopped taking church seriously when I was a teenager. On this faithful Sunday when a family came for a thanksgiving and they spent about an hour on the pulpit because they were wealthy and brought in a new sound proof generator.”

@olulade15: “It’s been two years & some months I av gone to church & I feel no remorse at all. Most churches are business centre. The day I realized if I kneel down in my room & pray to God he answers I stopped. I only attend prayer programmes quarterly, half year or at d end of d year.”
