A video posted on the church’s official X (formerly Twitter) page, showcased the renowned pastor leaving his Lagos home in a Rolls Royce, boarding a private jet at the Murtala Muhammed Airport, and being received in Abuja by two more Rolls Royces, which escorted him to the upscale Transcorp Hilton Hotel.

The extravagant display has sparked controversy online, with many criticizing the flashy lifestyle of religious leaders. Critics questioned the ethics of such luxury, particularly in a country grappling with economic challenges.
Some social media users expressed discontent, pointing out the stark contrast between the pastor’s lifestyle and the struggles faced by many church members.
A social media user @Gracepikin001 wrote, “Is this a church or a show house? How does the RR and PJ announcement add to the faith of your members? I’m still trying to wrap my head around the reasons for the bragging here because that’s exactly what it is.”
Another user, @olixa305 added, “Watin concern me ..pastor dey use rolls-Royce’s and private jet while some members no fit afford bag of rice 😂. Tomorrow he go open Bible say vanity upon vanity equals vanity. Wahala Dey o.”
@TemidireSt90707 opinionated, “Nothing concern them. These elites keep the poor and middle-class fighting each other while they keep on gathering their wealth.”
