Pastor Joshua Iginla gives money, cars to celebrate birthday

– Pastor Iginla surprised some people by giving them money on his birthday

– The pastor also gave cars to some Nollywood actors

– He noted that actors were erroneously perceived as wealthy people

Joshua Iginla who is the senior pastor of Champions Royal Assembly, Kubwa in Abuja celebrated his birthday in an unforgettable manner by giving out 32 cars to people. NAN reports that six Nollywood actors got Hummer jeep 3 series, Mercedes G-Wagon and Mercedes CLS 550. They are: Jide Kosoko, Francis Duru, Alex Usifo, Ngozi Osondu, Thelma Nwosu and Sunday Omobolanle, popularly known as Babaluwe.

It was reported that millions of naira were given to the aged, widows and orphanages and the pastor said he has 782 widows and orphans he was catering for. Artisans got generators and cash gifts while the widows got deep freezers, rice and cash gifts ranging from N150,000 to N1.5 million. Some orphanages that were given aid include Treasure Orphanage Foundation, Nyanya, Divine Wound Orphanage, Kubwa and Christ Home Foundation, Kuje. “It doesn’t matter to me if I trek home as I have given even the car that I personally drive. “I can only drive one car and live in one house at a time. This understanding is what has taught me that when I die, others will inherit my assets. “The beauty of life is not in its duration but in its donation. I have not seen some of the beneficiaries before in my life or spoken to them. “I’m seeing many of them for the first time today. I am seeing Jide Kosoko for the first time.” He said he rewarded the actors because their effort was sabotaged by the work of pirates and many people assume they were wealthy.

“The Nollywood actors and actresses are our ambassadors; they have projected the image of this country positively.” Kosoko said he was just meeting Iginla for the first time and commended him for his philanthropy. In 2015, the pastor gave 18 cars and millions of naira as gifts to people to celebrate his birthday.
