Former Pastor of Living Faith Church International, popularly known as Winners Chapel, Peter Godwin, says the church sacked him and about 40 other pastors in Ekiti State for failing to generate enough income as the church does not operate at a loss.
In a trending video, Pastor Godwin, who claimed to be one of the pastors affected in Ekiti State, said he was employed on August 28, 2020.
According to him, on July 1, he received a call that the state pastor wanted to see him, and that he was surprised to see about 40 other pastors when he arrived.
“A few minutes later, we were issued a letter. I opened the content of the letter to see what was there and I saw that it was a sack letter.”
“So, I called the management the next day to find out what happened since I wasn’t involved in any dubious activity or evil act. I was told by the management that the church doesn’t operate at a loss.
“They also told me that the total income that is being generated from my station should be able to cater for my welfare and accommodation, so as a result of low income, I’m hereby dismissed.”
The letter which is dated June 25, 2021 and signed by the Executive Secretary of the church, Adebisi Aboluwade, the pastors were asked to vacate their official accommodation and hand over their identity cards to their respective area pastors.
