Former Nollywood actor and a newly appointed senior pastor, of Fountain of Life Church, Jimmy Odukoya raised millions of naira for members during a church service.
It’s worth noting that Jimmy assumed leadership of the Fountain of Life Church about two months ago, succeeding his late father, Taiwo Odukoya.
In a video making the round online, the preacher was observed collecting donations for a student requiring N140,000 for school tuition. Surprisingly, the total amount raised reached N640,000.
Additionally, a woman shared her need for 7,500 Canadian dollars (approximately N6.3 million), and the church member ended up receiving a total of N9.6 million in support.

One Ayi Emokpae wrote: “Partial truth. The funds were gathered during Thursday Showers, a morning service that had an auditorium that was less than 1/3 full. When you want to report, double-check your facts. People gave not because he was raising funds. But because they wanted to. Thanksgiving Service at TFOLC was today, and there was baby dedication, but no “fund raising”.
