A Nigerian cleric, Pastor Ephraim, has stirred reactions on social media after expressing frustration over people who stress him before giving what he described as a relatively small cash gift.
In a video currently circulating online, the pastor complained about individuals who insist that he waits for them in person just to hand over ₦200,000.
According to him, some of his wealthier associates often send millions of naira through transfers without demanding his time or attention.
Speaking in the video, he said:
“Just because you want to give me ₦200,000 you’re calling to ask if I’m in the office so I can wait for you? Your mates transfer ₦3,000,000 to me; they won’t even call me. After some time they will calmly confirm if I got the credit.”
Pastor Ephraim added that, in his experience, those giving smaller amounts tend to make the biggest demands, often expecting him to adjust his schedule just to receive the money.
“But you, because of an ordinary ₦200,000 you are telling me not to go anywhere because God has blessed you a little,” he said.
The comments have since sparked mixed reactions online, with some people agreeing with his point about unnecessary stress, while others criticized the statement, arguing that ₦200,000 is still a significant amount of money for many Nigerians.
