Mercy Chinwo now charges N10m to perform in churches – Rev. Fr. Oluoma slams gospel singers

 A Catholic priest in the Abuja Archdiocese, Rev. Fr.
Chinenye Oluoma has disclosed that the popular gospel singer, Mercy Chinwo now
charges N10 million to perform in churches.

 

He made this known while decrying how religious worship has
become costly.

 

Speaking in a now trending video on social media, Father
Oluoma berated gospel musicians who demand huge payments to perform in a place
of worship.

 

Citing Mercy Chinwo as an example, the cleric, in a viral
video, reiterated that the singer charges N10m as performance fee in churches.

 

“We have made religious worship expensive. If I have to
bring Mercy Chinwo to come here and sing, how much will I pay her? How much
does a gospel artiste of Mercy Chinwo’s status charge to come to an event or in
a Church, it has reached N10m now.

 

“This is the tragedy that we have turned Christianity into,
that an artiste will come to a church and lead in ten minutes praise and
worship for N10m, N5m. So if that particular artiste doesn’t sing Jesus you
love me too much, that means God didn’t love you too much?

 

“And some people were asking should they be paid?Why didn’t
you pay them? If you must bring them you must pay them because what you are
bringing them for is entertainment. We have turned worship into entertainment.

 

“We have copied the world. In those days, those who composed
songs we are still using for worshipping nobody even knows them,” he said.
