A Nigеrian Pastor Sells Church And It’s Members To A Different Pastor Before Relocating Abroad

In a shocking turn of events, a pastor in Nigeria sold his congregation to another pastor and then left on a trip outside of the country. His congregation and fellow clergy members are mystified by this strange deal. The revered pastor in question felt a divine urge to leave his congregation and pursue new ministry opportunities abroad. That put him in the position of having to decide what to do about the congregation he had formed and the people who relied on his spiritual leadership.

The pastor made an unpopular decision, opting not to appoint a successor or give the congregation time to figure out its future. He sold both his church and its congregation to another pastor who had similarly dedicated his life to ministry in the same town. The congregation has reacted to this extraordinary transaction with a mix of shock and fascination. They are now part of a church community with which they are unfamiliar and are receiving spiritual guidance from a new pastor. The congregation, with its various personalities and religious histories, likewise found itself under the spiritual leadership of a new figure once the church building was “sold.” This unexpected action has caused many members of the church to wonder and worry.
