“Six different pastors extorted money from me, took advantage of my desperation” – Jim Iyke reveals
Popular actor, Jim Iyke has recounted how he was extorted by six different pastors who took advantage of his desperation for a miracle to happen in his life.
In 2013, Jim made headlines after a video of him utterly losing his cool in church surfaced.
During a recent interview with Gbadewonuola Olateju Oyelakin, also known as Teju Babyface, Jim recalled his interactions with the late Synagogue Church’s head, Pastor TB Joshua, and other men of God in 2013.
He revealed that his attendance at the church was only motivated by his strong wish for his mother’s recovery, which was fueled by a sense of desperation at the time.
His words;
“The only thing they could do was attack my personality, attack my integrity, I’ll never be desperate again in my life. Desperation was what took me there, to take my mother there, hoping that a man of God, quote and unquote would heal her.
“She lives here day and night, I still have conversations with her, she’s never left. When I’m done praying with God she is the next person, I know how many times my mum appeared to me in dreams, if she were to live twenty TB Joshuas will not stop her,”
When divulging his experiences, Jim Iyke revealed that TB Joshua wasn’t the sole spiritual leader he sought out.
He disclosed that he had approached around five or six different men of God, and they all ended up exploiting him for his hard-earned money.
“It was her time, nobody would have made me enter that space, he wasn’t the only one I went to, I have been to five or six men of God, is it because I don’t want to mention names?? How they drove me the money they took from me”, he concluded.
