I Gave Pastor Adeboye’s Redeemed Church $1million, N50million – Jimoh Ibrahim Reveals

Jimoh Ibrahim, Nigeria Billionaire and senator representing the Ondo South Senatorial District, has revealed how he gave $1 million for the Redeemed Christian Church of God, facilitated through the influence of his General Overseer, Pastor Enoch Adeboye. In addition to this amount, he has contributed N50 million to support various church projects. In a congratulatory birthday advertisement published on the front page of The Nation, marking Pastor Adeboye’s 83rd birthday, the former publisher of defunct National Mirror, Ibrahim, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) who previously lost the governorship primary election to Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa, expressed that his financial contributions to the esteemed church have significantly enhanced his professional prospects. Excerpt from the advert below: “Happy BirthdayPastor Adeboye serves as living proof of God’s presence in sustainable wealth creation. Here is the empirical evidence of my encounter with you 25 years ago. Everything you told me has come to pass, all thanks to the act of loving God. I met you years ago when you delivered a family sermon in Ikoyi at the Ibru family house. You spoke about “The Living God” (After your sermon, “I approached you and presented you with a $10,000 pastor’s offering. You inquired about my profession, and I explained that I was a lawyer who acquired struggling petrol stations, revitalised them, and sold them for profit, coming from a humble background (my father was a bricklayer, and my mother sold fish and farmed). You then asked how many stations I owned, to which I replied that I owned three. You told me “Next year would be better,” and I should report back to you. The following year, we acquired over 100 petrol stations across Nigeria! Thank you very much for your powerful prayers. I know you won’t forget our previous conversation. When we spoke, I expressed my desire to invest in rebuilding the Redeemed Church’s altar. You informed me about two options for the altar construction: Project A, which costs 20 million naira, and Project B, which costs 30 million naira. You suggested I pursue Project A and finance it with one million naira annually over twenty years! (I was in my early thirties then, and I was very young) The next day, I returned with a 50-million-naira bank draft, fully covering both projects. Unfortunately, I can not recall the prayers, but it was again a wonderful experience of incredible wealth creation! Before I let you take a little break (don’t laugh), you called me and asked, “Ogbeni, where are you?” I replied, “Daddy, I’m in Lagos, sir.” You requested to meet with me, and although I wasn’t sure why, I brought my foreign cheque along. You explained the church’s step-down project concerning the power supply to the church, and you shared with me the challenges faced by over 120 generators that powered the Redeemed Church then. I inquired about the project’s cost; you mentioned it was approximately $3 million. I was curious if the church had raised any funds, and you informed me that about $2 had been raised so far. I then took out my London bank cheque and wrote, “Pay Redeemed Church of God $1 million” (one million dollars! This was about 20 years ago!). You might not know that after dropping off that cheque, I only had $50,000 left in my account! The outcome led to remarkable global success and opportunities in oil and gas, banking, insurance, reinsurance, hotels, international consulting, and education. I still have nine university degrees from Oxford, Harvard, Cambridge, Buckingham, and LSE. Please don’t laugh, Baba. I stood for the state governorship without informing you, and I lost! However, I prayed for the Senate, and I won! I’ve learned from you how to reach out to God on my own for minor matters, albeit not as a pastor! It’s been eight years since I last saw you, as I’m still managing the incredible wealth from your prayers and those of your son, Bishop Oyedepo. If I visit, you’ll create even more wealth, and I’m also aging as I approach sixty in a few years! I am not running, but my hands are full for now! I know you will be delighted to hear about the children’s achievements. Seun has completed his PhD. in London, David has attained a first-class degree in law from the University of Reading, and Ayo has also secured a first class in his results for the British Bar. Damola earned a first-class degree in law at the University of Buckingham. Bukky was called to the Nigerian Bar at a wonderful ceremony, and Bimbo is studying medicine and surgery. They need your prayers even more, as you owe me a gift when we meet! I genuinely appreciate your support for my family and me; your role will always be part of our success story. I am currently dedicating myself to my spiritual journey and seeking effective ways to assist the Nigerian government in achieving its goals. As I move forward, we’ll discuss my many accomplishments. You are a testament to God’s will to nurture prosperity for those who aid His mission. Greetings to our mummy, and enjoy your day, Baba. Your Son.Senator Jimoh Ibrahim PhD+ CFR.
