Bishop David Oyedepo, the esteemed Nigerian preacher and founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, recently addressed and dismissed rumors suggesting his reliance on church members’ tithes for personal sustenance. During a Bible teaching session posted on the church’s YouTube page, Oyedepo recounted an accusation by a female member alleging he admitted dependence on congregation offerings to survive. Laughing off the claim, Oyedepo vehemently refuted it, expressing disbelief and disdain.

He emphasized that he had been faithfully paying tithes long before his accuser was born, underscoring his commitment to divine principles. Oyedepo passionately asserted that his livelihood stems not from human contributions but from adhering to divine covenant practices revealed to him by God Almighty.

His fervent declaration aimed to reassure followers of his financial independence from their donations and his unwavering trust in divine provision.
