[okogie7]

Thou shall not judge...

[chrisj2003]

lairs, criminals and theives. just can't find the right name to call these evil nigerian pastors who take advantage of grand ignorance in nigeria. malachi 3vs8-11 says that when u pay tithe, god will bless u so much that there will be no room in ur house to contain ur blessings. yet people pay tithe and church levy to their poverty. god of isreal is a fiction and fable. jesus of nazareth is a myth and the heaven they promised is a mirage. there's NO GOD and jesus is a liar. ful stop

[andyuser8]

Gullibility.

Preying on the weak.

Religious manipulation.

Diplomatically brainwashing the ignorant.

These people are so stupid they will give their lives (i.e. kill themselves) because some man said so.

[onerawtruth]

Warning nigeria pastors such as TB joshua,chris oyakhilome , Lazarus M ,etc

[cob23cob]

wayo church, cant u see that church is business. pastor go chop ur money and make u look like mugu

[mugabe1976]

ladies and gentle many lets refrain on this colony mentality of always thinking that everything the white men do or say is right,God is real and he is not a respector of anybody,these things were happened in the bible too until Moses said its enough people must stop bringing money and gifts,now that is happening to a black person it has to be investigated,what about Benhin{sp} Reinard bonkee,Don Stewart watch what you are saying ,before you bring curses to yourself ,they are bad and good Niger

[mamine1ful]

lool they are not christians the bible says that many will do things in the name of jesus but it's not true.

there is no where you can see in a bible that we have healing trough a man , or you must pay anything for healing

it's all about grace , the mercy of god . a church serves the people, a church raises money to help the pour, not the opposite

this is a buisiness centre , and nigerian autorities must stop this

[JudsonVIII]

If it looks like a scam, walks like a scam and smells like a scam then guess what. it must be a big freeking scam.

[keshawn888]

ONE WORD: BRAINWASHED!

[progressivechurch]

The Power of God is real and yes he can heal you from aids. There is no crime here just the power of God. Nigerian Churches keep up the good work.

[MrJimell]

All of you who are commenting against Nigerian churches, you are serious fools and you don’t know God at all, you die in ignorance, you guys don’t know what it takes to serve God. Nigeria has the best ways to worship God untraditionally

[rotena25]

Nigerians are always preaching about money.

[love83forever]

fu**ing idiots

[plasmatv]

Stealing in the name of the Lord. My Father's house of worship has become a Den of THIEVES...............I'm quoting a line from a favorite song of mine.

[PrincessEnitan]

They are all liers and thieves. They have religion but no god. The poor give and give to the pastors who live fat on the donation of the poor. They are so stupid, they do not know. My people are living in darkness.

[uriems2020]

...that is the problem i have with Nigerian churches....I am Nigerian and its such a pity that with all these proliferation of churches in Nigeria, nothing is moving forward...poverty is risen to 76% now, yet churches like this keep preaching money money money. This church in particular has a university built with church money yet members can't afford to send their kids. Isnt that sheer madness?

Wake up Nigerians!! Religion has taken us nowhere...rather it has caused more harm than good.

[MajorrBison]

i can't shout!!!!

[radicalgrace]

Scroll to frame 2:50. This clown is looking at before and after medical reports. It shows conclusive proof that a change occurred in the patient's medical condition after prayer. Ignoring the proof, this clown looks frantically in panic for reasons to discredit the facts. JESUS IS ALIVE!

[Tantoin]

These people have absolutely NOTHING to do with Biblical Christianity. Most of them are athiests and pagan antichrists who figured out how easy it is to fool people just by using the name of Jesus to bring in cash through various elaborate healing schemes which are nothing more then group planned fakery.

See my heresy playlists for more examples especially one called "Deception of the Age" exposing the con artist criminal cult of T.B. Joshua who will soon be in prison for his crimes.

[KingRockford]

looks like abit of a mean scam to me. but im sure not all of the churches are like that

[Spongyb]

I like the reporter let's watch all good and bad side of Nigeria. This church of a thing has got to stop. They are all business centres. Making money out of innocent people.

[SPAINole3]

i`ve been in these chruches in london and their life style far from modest all into bying miracles for money ..........may god arrest then...liars....god gave for FREE TO ALL OF US......

[xseyix]

not all of nigerian churches are like that!

seeing this just makes me mad

[olojulagbari]

Nigerians!!!! THEY USE EVERYTHING to trick the people. Even the BIBLE.

[idmann17]

i agree. but it is not just an Nigerian disease...

[chycobull]

please mind the way you speak about churches you are not God.i have being in eroup for pass 10yrs now,all the churches here need money.but mind you know one tell this brothers and sister to bring money for healing................mind the way you speak about africans....thanks

[1point2x]

to the reporter, I think you should leave everyone with their beliefs. Why go into a church to criticize what they do there. Fine, most britons don't believe in God but no one is stressing them about it so why stress those that believes in Him. You better be careful so that you dont come across the anger of God. You have been warned!!!

[Serioloogunebi]

If truelly they are doing the work of God why is it not reflecting in our society. Why do we still have bad government, why don't they use the money getting from tithe and offering to provide life for the homeless the children sleeping under the bridge but no they preffere to buy big cars and properties. Please think my pple. I know there is God and I am a believer but Nigerian Pastors peace me off

[Vadertime360]

Jesus Walks.....Away with your money.

[modernman00]

The reporter is just scum mother fucker.. these assholes dont ever report anything good about africa.... i dont agree with the way churches are being run globally but that doesnt mean God does not heal anymore..

[Ricardooka]

Please people, be careful of what you say.A word is enough for the wise. That white man is just a tool of the devil.

[meetashley]

of curse. they never report good thing about africa. where they go most is where there is bad thing about africa. like where poor people are or where Aids is much as if they (white poeple) dont have Aids. PLs

[oaofili]

this shit annoys me. Not the Nigerian churches but the freaking reporter acting like it does not happen in America. What tha! Do you know how much money Lakewood makes in a weekend? Do you know what type of neighbourhood Joel Osteen lives in and what type of car his family drives? Every sermon his wife is blinged out? But this stereotypical ass-hole has to go to Nigeria (aka Africa) and carry a video camera to lament about how many people have aids in Nigeria,

[oaofili]

but does not question how many people are broke in Houston, the same crowd Joel says will prosper when they donate to his church. Does he know what Joels 3 key points for the year are, the same ones he reminds us about every sermon? Let me tell him:

1. Coming to church on time

2. Inviting a friend with you to church

3. And the all time giving 10% of your income...all the churches are the same, stick your camera in America first...

[buffblaze]

this reporter is just a bloody liar.that church is not that way at all.

[lauryee143]

i'm with u smile4kenny...we have left the BIBLE and what God has commanded us to do to follow signs and wonders and prosperity......its sad to know that our preachers or teachers of the WORD dont actually have the SPIRIT of GOD in them...they decieve people by telling them what they think God will do...Gods ways are not our ways..the only way forward is for us to study the Bible for ourselves so we wont be decieved.matt 24:4.

[vixxy02]

I agree with you Kenny,but churches in America,are doing exactly the same thing,infact they brought this culture to NIGERIA!

[smile4kenny]

am Nigerian.. those Aids test documents are fake!!!.. people can do anything to mantain money making strategies and decieve their members to pay more.. how in d world is dat possible? but it is possible in a country where anything can happen!!!

[smile4kenny]

Nigeria has to redefine their religion laws.. these large pastors are getting extremely rich in Nigeria.. they dont pay tax, but these churches make over $500,000 on a service.. how can one man be taking other people's wealth in the name of church? Church business in Nigeria is extraganza. Nig Govt shuld look into this churches.. they are business men!!

[smile4kenny]

"Holidays in the Danger Zone" please bbc wat do u mean by dat? what danger zone.. u mean my country is a danger zone? media plz change in respect to Africa
