200 pastors secretly
resigned enmasse from
Winners Chapel in late
December 2011 following a
disagreement they had with
the General Overseer,
Bishop Oyedepo, over the
re-organisation of the
church.
After a general meeting in
December, some pastors
said they were no longer
comfortable with the
founder's leadership style
and some new rules he
implemented. Bishop
Oyedepo was said to have
told the pastors that anyone
who wanted to leave the
ministry was free to do so
without any drama. A few
weeks later, 200 pastors
tendered their resignation
letter.
Some pastors resigned to
join other ministries, others
to start their own churches.
Bishop Oyedepo was said
to have given all of them a
parting gift...from N2 million
to N500, 000 each,
depending on how long
they had served in the
church. The resignations is
supposed to be hush hush,
so don't say you read it
here, biko! :-)
