Rema pledges N105m to Christ Embassy church who helped His Widowed Mother
Fast Rising Musician, Rema has pledged N105 million to Christ Embassy Church in Benin City, Edo State.
The donation was made during a thanksgiving service at the church where Rema shared his personal story of struggle and triumph.
Rema, who lost his father at eight, credited the church for providing support and care to his family during a difficult time.
He said: “I am not here to give myself any form of accolades or glory but to give to God the glory.
“And, I felt it was important to give back to the church that has embraced me, prayed for me and kept me very consistent with my spirit.
Firstly, I want to give a pledge of N40 million to the infrastructural development of the church, N20 million to the Rhapsody of Realities publication, and, being a fact that I came from the teen church, I also like to pledge N25 million to the church.
“And just to add to that, if there is any widow in church today, I am pledging N20 million to assist all the widows in attendance”.
“When I was eight years old when I lost my dad, we felt very lost and abandoned.
“All that we had were taken from us and we felt alone, and I remember at the time Pastor Joy and Pastor Thomas, the pastors of this church; they opened a shop for my mum, and that was what she managed to take care of and feed us.”
