So the gods of this “prophet” use the same kind of moneyNigerians use? Interesting to note; because an article I read sometime ago claimed that some “men of God” in some African countries outside Nigeria specifically rejected donations of Naira for their projects.
At least indigenous “prophet” has proved our Naira is still good for something. Fraudsters everywhere…May God help us!
