I’m Not Jealous Of Pastor Jerry Eze, But… — Damina

Controversial Nigerian Pastor and founder of Power City International Ministry, Abel Damina, has clarified that he was not jealous of fellow cleric, Pastor Jerry Eze, of the Streams of Joy International Ministry.

Damina, known for his public opposition to the teachings of most Nigerian Pastors in his sermons, revealed this in a teaser of the Honest Bunch Podcast with Nedu posted on social media on Sunday. The full interview session is, however, due for release on Monday evening.

He contended that the slogan, “What God cannot do does not exist”, popularised by Pastor Jerry Eze, was false, adding that most of the miracles being performed by other Pastors were stage-managed.

He said, “’What God cannot do does not exist’ is not the truth.

“Most people think I’m jealous of Jerry Eze, but that is not the truth…… Jerry Eze is my junior in ministry.”

“I believe in miracles, I believe in healings, but not all these arrangee miracles we are seeing today.”

LEADERSHIP recalls that Pastor Eze recently hosted an NSSPD conference in the United Kingdom where an eight-year-old girl suffering from cerebral palsy and confined to a wheelchair was said to have been healed.

The NSSPD Pastor and founder of Streams of Joy International ministry, reacted to the allegation that his miracles were staged, saying that he had more important things to do.

However, Damina maintained in the much-anticipated podcast show that the miracles by a certain Pastor were fake because the crutches by the healed lame attendees being paraded were always brand new.

“Can’t you see most of those crutches are all the same colours. They are all brand new.

“In what world will people come for a crusade and all of them are carrying the same brand of crutches and also the same colour?” Damina queried in the podcast.

He stated firmly that, “It is not about sentiments, it is about knowing what the truth is.”

Also, commenting on the issue of tithing, Pastor Damina asserted that it was wrong for pastors to ask for tithes, challenging fellow pastors to go back to their vocational jobs because “all of the disciples of Jesus Christ had professions.”
