The famous televangelist also spoke about dealing with constant scrutiny and criticism from people who do it not because of love or desire to see him grow but out of hate.

The NSPPD cleric noted in his long read that pastoring is not for the faint-hearted because of how brutally demanding it could be.

Pastor Eze also noted that there is a common perception that clergies love money and are expected to live in humble poverty. But when one looks too poor, some would criticise why one couldn't help his situation if he were a man of God.
