Catholic priest blasts pastor and church members over credit alerts

A Nigerian Catholic priest, Fr. Kelvin Ugwu, has reacted to a video of a pastor and church members praying for credit alerts to miraculously appear on their mobile phones.

Ugwu posted a video of the church members attending a night vigil and fervently shouting Amen while holding their phones up as their pastor prayed for miracle money to enter their accounts.

“I command money to enter into your account. I don’t need to shout for you to get wealth. I speak to my Zenith Bank account and receive miracle money. I speak to my Diamond Access account and receive miracle money. I speak to UBA and receive miracle money. I speak to GTB; receive miracle money,” he said.

Reacting to the video, Ugwu urged people to have sense and stop bastardizing Christianity.

“Unfortunately, this is what some people gather to do and call it night vigil. The funny part is that the same minister commanding money from different banks to enter the people’s accounts will rather choose to ask the people to bring offerings and tithe instead of commanding the same money into his own account. Make una try to dey get sense. Stop helping these people bastardize Christianity.”
