Emulate Bishop Oyedepo.....Onuesoke Advises Wealthy Nigerians

"The citizenry will breath a sigh of relief if those that are well to do can emulate the christian cleric by providing the necessity of life to the people in terms of infrastructures, health care, education and other better living accessories"..... Onuesoke

"In Ota, Ogun State, the presence of Living Faith Church Worldwide has not only splashed renewed hope all across the town and beyond, but had also lifted a growing number of individuals and households out of poverty".


Wealthy Nigerians have been advised to emulate the philanthropic and humanitarian gesture of the Founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, Bishop David Oyedepo in contributing their little quota to development of humanity.

This was the advise of Chief Sunny Onuesoke, a prominent chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, following the donation of N650 million by Bishop Oyeddepo for the maintenance of bad roads in Ogun state.

Onuesoke, in a statement issued and made available to Naij News Alert, said "if wealthy Nigerians can emulate the good work of Oyedepo, by contributing their little quota to the development of the society, especially in the education sector, heath sector, industrialization and infrastructural development among others, Nigeria will be a better place for all".

He stated that in Ota, Ogun State, the presence of Living Faith Church Worldwide has not only splashed renewed hope all across the town and beyond, but had also lifted a growing number of individuals and households out of poverty.

Onuesoke added that the Church’s intervention in road development and electricity distribution has changed the lives of the indigenes for good.

Recalling the series of interventions carried out by the Living Faith Church, Onuesoke said; "The recent donation of N650m for repairs of road is just a tip on the ice bag. Evidence abound that, the Living Faith Church Worldwide, popularly known as Winners Chapel is credited with the construction and regular maintenance of Oju-Ore to Atan Agbarha road. There was a time the entire Ota community in Ogun state was in total darkness, it was the Church that brought electricity to the community".

The PDP chieftain, who was at ota to see things for himself, disclosed that David Oyedepo Foundation, a Christian non-profit organization, has excelled in education by creating platforms to improve the quality of education in Africa and increase access to quality education by school age children, marginalized by poverty.

He said the Foundation focuses the bulk of its efforts on intervention educational support for individuals and schools because, it strongly believes that education is one major tool that has the power to change the current economic condition of Nigeria in particular and Africa in general.

“The Foundation focuses on education to ensure that all those in need are empowered with basic knowledge and skills required to achieve success in their own lives. It provides  educational learning aids in Vocational and formal schooling, establishment of libraries, award of research grants in the field of education and partnerships with Non-Governmental Organizations",  Onuesoke explained.

Stressing that besides other endeavours of human endowment, Onuesoke revealed that the Oyedepo Foundation equally participates in providing adequate, quality and primary health care especially to the poor and marginalized people who are unable to afford quality medical care.

The PDP Chieftain is of the view that for  the fact Government cannot provide all the needs of the people, the citizenry will breath a sigh of relief if those that are well to do can emulate the christian cleric by providing the necessity of life to the people in terms of infrastructures, health care, education and other better living accessories.
