2018 Top Ten richest Pastors In Edo State

Edo State has overtime become one of the fastest rising economies of Nigeria today in all sectors. And at the same time, the state is presently ranking as Nigeria's third most luxurious states to live in.

Nigerian pastors -especially the Benin city based- are not left behind in the luxorious life. Seeing the lives of these clergymen, you would agree with me that God is not a poor God. Every year, the list is heavily competitive that it becomes cumbersome to select ten out of several icons of wealth. This year, the list has even proven to be much more competitive compared to the previous one as new names have replaced old names like Charles Asabor of Christ Victory bible church and Jeffery Iyonomwan of the Miracle Assembly. Charles Osazuwah overtakes Dr. Omobude to become number three but Mama Idahosa retains her position as the highest earning pastor in the whole of Edo state (and one of the richest in Nigeria) and likes of Pastor Azemhe Azena of the Omega Fire Ministry and Evang Kingsley Nwaorgu of the Renewal evangelical bible church were introduced to the list.

The following are the Top 10 richest pastors in Edo State.
