Senior Pastor of The Covenant Nation and Convener The Platform Nigeria, Poju Oyemade, has countered the claim by a Catholic priest in the Abuja Archdiocese, Rev. Fr. Chinenye Oluoma that gospel minister Mercy Chinwo charges a specific fee to sing in churches.

Oyemade, whose The Platform Nigeria has become an avenue for discourse on nation-building and development, refuted the claim in a tweet.

Oyemade said, “Mercy Chinwo sang at our service at Lekki last Sunday and the honorarium we gave was at our discretion. She made NO formal charges.”

The pastor responded directly to a report where Fr Oluoma claimed Chinwo charges 10m to minister at worship centres, lashing gospel musicians who demand huge payments to perform in a place of worship.

Mercy Chinwo is yet to speak on the allegation by Fr Oluoma at the time of filing this report.
