Chairman, Delta State Chapter of the Pentecostal Fellowship of Nigeria (PFN), Bishop Pius Odioko, has kicked against the proposal by the National Conference Committee to impose taxes on churches, saying it will attract the wrath of God.
Odioko, who is also the Presiding Bishop of Jesus Dominion Church spoke on behalf of the PFN in Warri on Sunday, wondering when confab delegates became lawmakers.
According to him, the delegates should concentrate on issues that will restore Nigeria’s dwindling image and the terrorism challenges.
“I am shocked and amazed that with the myriad of problems confronting Nigeria, it is the Church that the delegates decide to tax, instead of focusing their energy on important and serious matters.”
