Singer, Timi Dakolo has called out Pastor Femi Lazarus after the pastor criticized gospel artists for charging fees to minister in churches
Pastor Lazarus had earlier spoken against the commercialization of ministry, revealing that a popular gospel singer demanded $10,000 to perform at his church.
However, in a post on his Instagram page, Dakolo pointed out that Pastor Lazarus also charges fees for his ministry programs. Backing his statement with proof, he wrote:
“All this was said in love and with respect, sir. I am not a gospel artist but a Christian raised in church. Let’s not shift the goalpost. By your definition, if anyone charges to minister, they are not gospel artists but performers. And by that same definition, if any preacher charges to teach and minister, they are merchants of hope and motivational speakers.”
Dakolo further alleged that Pastor Lazarus charges as low as $150 per person for his School of Ministry, which could have up to 1,000 students. He questioned whether the pastor was also “selling the gift and revelation freely given to him.”
