Shepherd Bushiri, pastor and founder of the Enlightened Christian Gathering Church surprised his six year old daughter with a new Maserati Levante worth N27m on her birthday.
The South African based pastor took his Facebook page on Wednesday, Dec. 20, 2017 to appreciate God and share the news to his followers.
He shared a photo of his daughter and the expensive car and blessed God for his unending mercies.
“I always count myself blessed during this time of the year because I get the honor to celebrate, not only one but two God-given gifts in my life.
“I celebrate the birth of my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and also the birth of our first daughter, Israella Bushiri.
“It seems like just yesterday when her little palms held my forefinger. It seems like only a while ago when I celebrated that finally I could lift her up and allow her to rest on my shoulders.
“It’s been a joy and heavens honor to watch her grow from being a baby to being the strong and brave child that she is today. I count myself blessed because not only did she give me a reason to smile but she gave me the opportunity to be called a Dad.
“My sweet little daughter, my pride and joy. May God’s loving kindness always shine on your beautiful face. I prophesy long life! You shall be great and yours, shall be a life that heaven celebrates. Happy birthday my princess!” he wrote.
This is coming in the heat of the Tithe debate in Nigeria. While a huge percentage believe a pastor’s extravagant lifestyle is funded by members tithes others are focused on the scripture which encourages paying 10% of one’s income as tithe.
