Pastor Dr. Great Olalekan Martins, a former minister with the Deeper Christian Life Ministry, has revealed the circumstances that prompted his departure from the church led by Pastor W.F. Kumuyi.
In a detailed Facebook post, Pastor Martins accused more than two overseers in the Deeper Life Ministry of misconduct, particularly highlighting incidents that occurred during his assignment in the Kabba region.
He alleged that one overseer unlawfully deducted his salary, despite explicit instructions from Pastor Kumuyi to halt such deductions.
Pastor Martins expressed his frustration in his post, stating:
“He fraudulently deducted my salary against Pastor Kumuyi’s instruction. Yet, out of greediness and wickedness, part of my small salary was taken in the name of GS, even after Pastor Kumuyi had ordered that such deductions should cease.”
According to him, his monthly pay was ₦25,000, with no allowances attached.
He further alleged that the overseer involved earned about ₦300,000 monthly from Lagos, alongside benefits like health allowance, children’s school fees, and transportation allowance.
Great added that his attempts to report the matter to Pastor Kumuyi failed due to poor communication channels within the church.
According to him, his mother suffered a stroke eight years ago, but the pastors and church offered no help when his family sought support.
The experience, he said, opened his eyes and led to his deep resentment toward Christianity, sparking mixed reactions online.
His post triggered strong reactions online. One Facebook user wrote, “People think all pastors are rich. This shows the suffering some of them go through.”
Another commented, “If this is true, then churches need to start being transparent with how they treat their ministers.”
