"There were days you want to buy something but you can't buy it because you lacked the economic power.
"For instance, there was a day I was to buy a six kobo bread. Bread then was six kobo, but I had only five kobo and I wanted to eat bread.
"So, I had to advise my taste. There are days when you have plenty of soup but very few pieces of meat, yet you had to get excited.
"There are days when people around you were living in pleasure and you had to manage things.
"We can describe all these ones as days of challenges, but like i said if you see the ending it doesn't get to you."

Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that Bishop Abioye had sent a message to Bishop Oyedepo after retiring from Winners Chapel.

Abioye's retirement follows a review of the church’s administrative policy, The Mandate. The retirement age for church leaders has been pegged at 55. According to the new policy, only David Oyedepo, the church's founder, can now serve for life.

The Mandate stipulates that future church leaders will be restricted to one or two terms of seven years, pending approval by the Board of Trustees (BoT). Following Bishop Abioye's retirement, a valedictory service was held for him at the Winners Chapel, Abuja.
