Nigerians Like Me Glorify Ill-Gotten Wealth And Extravagance Lifestyle - Ogbuka_

A post on X (formerly Twitter) criticized COZA for welcoming a pastor with three Rolls Royces and a private jet, sparking backlash over the church’s display of wealth. In response, someone commented, “This is actually what Nigerians want IRL—if you flaunt ill-gotten wealth and an extravagant lifestyle, you’ll win them over.”

While this comment reflects a troubling truth about how status and wealth are often glorified in society, it overlooks the need for accountability in religious spaces. Faith organizations should inspire values like humility and service, not reinforce materialism. True leadership isn’t about flaunting wealth but about uplifting others and fostering meaningful change.
