The National Superintendent and Resident Pastor of Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC), Pastor Femi Fasheru, has discredited rumours on the senior pastor, Matthew Ashimolowo quitting preaching for Real Estate.
According to Fasheru, Ashimolowo had recently held a mould-breaking ceremony for a 33-hectare estate in the Ibeju Lekki area of Lagos, which must have prompted the rumour.
According to him, “This project may be what mischief makers have taken out of context without cross-checking available information. This type of journalism skirts the border of decency and injures the reputation of the victim while courting libel for the publisher. To be sure, Ashimolowo remains a proud soldier of Christ, preaching His gospel with renewed enthusiasm as he has done for close to 50 years,” he said
Fasheru further clarified that Ashimolowo’s telecast, Winning Ways, can be viewed all over Africa and Europe, adding that his wife, Yemisi, and one of his sons, Pastor Tobi, are also working as ministers in the KICC.
“There is no iota of truth in the insinuation that Ashimolowo may have quit preaching the gospel to concentrate on real estate business.” he added.
