The congregation will, according to Prophet Samuel Kakande of Uganda’s Synagogue Ministries, buy him a new car to start the new year.
He is one of Uganda’s wealthiest preachers.
The man of God said during his most recent livestream that the car he is presently driving was purchased by Christians, but that it has since grown old and has to be replaced.
He made clear that only people who loved him should enroll in the program so that the Lord Jesus would bless them and he could obtain a nice car.
“I want only 300 dollars from each one. We’ll contribute, and then buy a good vehicle. I drive while I pray for you. What’s wrong with that?” he preached.
He quoted Luke Chapter 6, which says, “give and it shall be given to you, pressed down and in good measure.”
Kakande also clarified that the 300-dollar (KSh 36,000) figure is not cast in stone, and that those who are willing can give a higher amount depending on their abilities.
While a cross-section of the prophet’s followers said they would have liked to donate but lacked the necessary funds, the followers of the prophet said they were drawing on the benefits and will take part in the effort.
Magdalene Kamuti: “I would like to contribute but I don’t have money. Please Lord, bless me I want to partake the blessings.”
Ssembajjwe Robert: “I will be among the ones to buy you, man of God.”
Ruth Wambui: “I receive my breakthrough financially, spiritually and favor, and more blessings upon my life and my family.”
Adero Nyakisi: “Jesus Christ, give me money before December so that I give my contributions to your house of God.”
Kakande owns several high-end vehicles among them a 2017 customised Lexus LX 570 and a Mercedes Benz G-Class.
