Speaking after the meeting, Pastor Mrs Foluke Adeboye described it as ungodly acts after news emerged that some of it branch churches were forcing their members to buy a particular material during church functions while those who cannot afford it are been left out.
She warned that such “unchristianly” act of keeping church members out of programs because of aso ebi must never be heard of again among the women in the church, adding that those caught would be severely sanctioned.
According to her, aso ebi which should ordinarily be for the family, must not be elevated to the point of making it to overshadow the spiritual life of the congregants.
