Aljazeera’s Mohammed Adow, questioned the ownership of the palatial residences and the private jets by Nigerian church leaders, who he said had become wealthy through miracle preaching.
In response, Adeboye said a private jet was a necessity for him.
He said, “There are things you need, which you must have if you are to be efficient.”
Adow then said, “And a private jet is one of them?”
Adeboye replied, “If you have to oversee churches in 160 nations, you can’t do that on a bicycle.”
Earlier, Adow said many of the worshippers, who often number over half a million, flock to the Holy Ghost Congress service to seek a release from the harsh economic reality in the country.
“If the people have not been getting their miracles, by now, they would have stopped coming. If you listen to some of the testimonies, you will hear of miracles of healing, miracles of deliverance, miracles of child birth; miracles of success in academics etc,” Adeboye said.
