Why I Donated N1.8bn To President Jonathan’s Hometown Church – Prince Arthur Eze

16Multi-Billionaire businessman, Arthur Eze has dismissed the controversy trailing the presidential pardon granted former governor of Bayelsa state, Dipreye Alamieyeseigha and others saying President Jonathan it was an “advice from God.”

Eze, while speaking with state House correspondents at the Presidential Villa, said, “What Jonathan did is what a man who fears God will do. If I have an opportunity as president of Nigeria I will do the same. All of us are human beings. What he did was correct. We are not fighting war. Jonathan took advice from God. God has told him to show mercy. The bible says blessed are those that are merciful for they shall see God”.

On his donation of over N1billion to a church in the president’s Village, Prince Arthur Eze who is the Chairman of Atlas Oranto Petroleum International Limited said, “God gave me the money to contribute to the church. The money is not meant for Jonathan to put in his pocket. We are thinking of thanking God for what he has done for Otuoke. It was abandoned for many years.

“They had no water, no electricity until when God brought Jonathan to change that place. Let the people have a place to worship God. Those criticizing me are confused people” he said.

  1. Arthur Eze, is a confused man, Jonathan is not Abacha, so there is no way for you, use the money to pay people that you owe, you are the cause of my fathers death in 1997, after you didn’t pay for the electrical contract, for Trias then.

    • Mr,you can always approach Arthur Eze,if all these you’re saying are truth.
      Arthur gives millions of dollars to even non-nigerians who did not work for him,how much more if you did?
      Atleast,I know of an american man,Al Espencer,that he gave $19million just helping him in Wisconsin,USA,there are many instances like that,example:#820million to unizik,#1billion to presidential committe on flood relief,#500million anambra security trust fund,#250million imo state govt endowment fund,#250million pdp national body,many billions. Shared to individuals and other worthy causes,like two organs to good shephard anglican church independent layout enugu and saint mary ukpo,worth #120million naira,#200million naira to ukpo community in the last ofala for the anglican and catholic churches renovation there.
      Let me just stop here.

  2. @ Tony, are u serious about this ur comment. If yes then I think its really unfortunate dat we’ve someone like Jonathan has our president cos of our blindfolded sentiment. I attributed it to Jonathan cos of d saying dat ‘birds of d same feather flock together’ and ‘show me ur frnd n I’ll know who u r’. All d people u see arnd Jonathan r worthless people who made cold blood money starting from his widow. May God repay d killer of your father.
