Enconium Weekly reports that 59 year old clergy, who will turn 60 on September 27, Bishop David Oyedepo, told his ardent congregation that he needed 200 new Prado jeeps for ministerial purpose. It was gathered that the exact reasons for the need were undisclosed, but it might not be unconnected to the fact that it is for use in some of their branches manned by his ordained Pastors scattered across the country.
Inquiries further revealed that a brand new Prado jeep goes for about N10.6 million thus, the estimated cost of 200 Prado jeeps comes to N2.1 billion. It is revealed that it was an individual contribution by wealthy members who voluntarily donated the jeeps. Even though the place of purchase cannot be easily determined nor the identity of the donors revealed, it is gathered that the jeeps are tucked away inside Cannanland at Otta, Ogun State.
It would be recalled that Enconium revealed in January 2013 that during Winners Chapel Cross-Over Service on Tuesday January 1, 2013, in Canaanland, Ota, Ogun state, worshipers made donations of over 700 exotic cars to the church. People who felt they had been richly blessed in 2012 came to the Cross-Over Service with different donations. Most significant was the number of exotic brand new cars and SUVs that flooded Canaanland. The people who donated them dropped the keys and documents of the cars during offering. The church auctioned the cars at very cheap prizes to its members. Some cars were sold for as low as N300,000.
