WRITTEN BY: CHIOMA MADONNA NDUKWU

In a surprising revelation, Pastor John Anosike of New World Faith Ministries in Cape Town, South Africa, stirred controversy by asserting that members’ first fruit offerings are meant for him personally, not the church.

The pastor, captured in a video addressing his 8000-member congregation, insists they should honor him with their initial fruits of the year, promising abundance in return. Despite anticipated criticism, Pastor Anosike stands firm, emphasizing the offering’s purpose for his own welfare rather than the church’s. Online reactions have been swift, with many challenging the unconventional claim.
