“We Don’t Take Tithes and Offerings, We Grow Businesses” – Pastor Tobi Adegboyega Claims
Pastor Tobi Adegboyega, the founder of Salvation Proclaimers Anointed Church, also known as SPAC Nation, has revealed that his church operates without collecting tithes and offerings.
In an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, he shared insights into his source of income.
Pastor Adegboyega explained that his wealth stems from his passion for empowering people through entrepreneurship rather than traditional religious practices.
He proudly mentioned how he has helped individuals transform their lives by offering support to those who were once incarcerated, turning them into successful multi-millionaires.
“I have raised people who now run major corporations in the UK, and I am proud of what they have become,” he stated.
“For me, it’s never about wealth, but about people. The true wealth lies in seeing others rise and thrive.”
The pastor also spoke about his charitable efforts, particularly his work in Nigeria, where he has made a significant impact by supporting small businesses.
Over the past two years, Pastor Adegboyega and his team have contributed one million naira each to 250 small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) across Nigeria.
“By focusing on growing businesses, we are able to sustain the work we do as a church,” he continued.
“We don’t rely on traditional offerings. We let the businesses we nurture provide the support needed to keep things running smoothly.”

TV anchor Rufai Oseni makes headlines as he speaks on fuel subsidy in Nigeria. He shared that Nigeria can have fuel subsidy without the long queues at filling stations.
“When we were still paying subsidies, there were no long queues. We were subsidising. So you can still have a subsidy regime going on, and there will be no long queues because production was close by. Dangote had it. That’s just it. That argument also falls flat.
“The biggest beneficiaries of subsidy are not Nigerians. They are crony capitalists that have big infrastructure, and they do contracts. They have been the biggest beneficiaries of the subsidy,” he said.
