A Ugandan pastor, Prophet Kakande, who is the founder of The Kakande Ministries, has caused a stir after asking his congregation to contribute $300 each so he could purchase a brand new Range Rover.
During a church service, the pastor displayed an advertisement video of the luxury vehicle, emphasizing that the congregation should contribute towards the purchase because “God is going to do wonders for us.”
“So all those of you who love Prophet Kakande, listen to this. Prophet Kakande wants to buy a vehicle. We all agree to buy this new vehicle. We want to change the transport. This is the vehicle we want to buy,” he said.
“We are now going to contribute to the Prophet Kakande’s vehicle. Just a simple vehicle you have seen. This Range Rover. We are contributing to this vehicle. Each one of us, we are contributing $300 because God is going to do wonders for us,” he added.
The incident has sparked a debate about the role of pastors and leaders in churches and how they should use funds contributed by their congregations.
He is a fool and the fools like him in the church will do it. The bigger fools who don’t have the means will try to borrow to fulfill this idiotic request and go back home to cry.
