OPM Founder Purchases Building Used by Redeemed Church Branch, Plans to Turn it to Free School

• Apostle Dr Chibuzor Gift Chinyere, the founder and general overseer of Omega Power Ministry (OPM), has announced the acquisition of a building occupied by a Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) branch
• The cleric, who was crowned Ihie 1 of Ikwuorie autonomous community many months ago, stated that his church's tithes and offerings funded the acquisition
• Against the advice of his pastor, Chibuzor shared why he plans to convert the building to a free school for the poor

The General Overseer of Omega Power Ministry (OPM), Apostle Dr Chibuzor Gift Chinyere, has purchased a building used by RCCG's Marine Base branch.

The clergyman, who is also a king, disclosed this in a Facebook post on Friday, May 16.

What OPM founder would do with building

While noting that the acquisition of the building was funded by his church's tithes and offerings, Chibuzor said it would be converted to a free school for the poor, a move which negates his pastor's recommendation of turning it into one of his church's branches.

"...By the Grace of GOD ALMIGHTY, today 16th may, 2025, I just used tithes and offerings from the church to buy a church building that will be converted to another OPM free school.

"My Pastor advised me to use the Church building for a branch of OPM church as the building is currently being used for Church by Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG) marine base branch, but I refused the last time I visited that part of marine base, it is densely populated by very poor people..."

The cleric said he was moved when he saw poor, out-of-school children running around the area and this informed his decision to put them in school.

"...And I saw poor children running up and down without going to school.

"As we are aware that lack of education is one of the major causes of poverty, crime and lack of salvation of souls.

"One of the weapons the early missionaries used to win many souls to Christ is free schools, free hospitals and then they introduce our Jesus Christ to them.

"So for me rather than converting the church building to OPM branch church, I am converting it to a free school so that it will attract sinners when sinners see the love GOD have for them by giving them free school they would want to know GOD more..."

The philanthropist wondered why one should have church branches close to each other in an area where members can't afford good healthcare or send their kids to school due to a lack of money.

"...What is the essence of opening church branches very close to each other, while it is the same Gospel of Christ that is been preached.

"There are many widows in that same church that their children are not going to school because they cannot afford their school fees.

"What is the use of opening two to three branches two poles from each other while there are many members inside that church that their children can not go to school or have access to good healthcare because of money..." a part of his lengthy post read.
