Abuja Pastor Gifts Nollywood Stars & Others 22 Cars At His Birthday Celebration

Posted by Odinaka on Mon 29th Jun, 2015 - tori.ng

Notable Nollywood stars and others were among the 22 beneficiaries as the Senior Pastor of Champions Royal Assembly, Kubwa, Abuja, Joshua Iginla, on Sunday gave out 22 cars and millions of naira to celebrate his birthday.

Its all about giving back to the needy as the Senior Pastor of Champions Royal Assembly, Kubwa, Abuja, Joshua Iginla,  who celebrated his birthday and that of his wife at a service on Sunday gave out 22 cars and millions of naira ranging from N50,000 to N500,000, and also unveiled 33 book titles written by him.

Presenting the cars, among which were 10 SUV cars to the beneficiaries, the pastor challenged the well-to-do in the society to assist the less-privileged. He said that he had tasted poverty and knew how it felt, and that the less-privileged of today could become important personalities tomorrow.
 
“My birthday is all about giving to the needy. What I do here is just 10 per cent of what I do secretly. I don’t give to show up; I give to teach people and to provoke them to give. I have many people on scholarship, I have widows on my payroll, we have rescued prostitutes and empowered them with skills acquisition programmes.
 
I have orphans I am taking care of. I have schools of the handicapped that we have been assisting and the physically-challenged students irrespective of their religions. Gospel is practical, not only spiritual,” he said.
 
The occasion was attended by Senators Grace Bent, Anthony Kila and Effiong Bob, Onyeka Onwenu, Tope Alabi and Chris Morgan.
 
There were also 16 Nollywood actors who attended the service, including Zack Orji, Francis Duru, Alex Usifo and Fathia Balogun, six of whom were beneficiaries of the car gifts.
