Idah Peterside, the former Nigerian international football goalkeeper turned pastor, recently made significant allegations against Dr. Abel Damina, a prominent cleric known for his controversial teachings and outspoken views on Christianity. Peterside, who now serves as a pastor at Christ Ambassadors Church in South Africa and works as a sports analyst, expressed serious concerns about Dr. Damina’s conduct.....CONTINUE READING THE ARTICLE FROM THE SOURCE
According to Peterside, Dr. Damina’s teachings and actions, which often include harsh criticisms of fellow pastors, are driven by a desire for financial gain. He accused Damina of engaging in deceitful practices and fraud, suggesting that the respected preacher’s motivations are more about personal profit than genuine spiritual leadership. These allegations have added to the ongoing controversies surrounding Dr. Damina, who has been a polarizing figure in religious circles due to his unconventional views and confrontational approach.
He asserts that, despite Damina’s clear anointing and divine purpose, he has been unable to control his relentless pursuit of wealth. Peterside alleges that Damina has deceived many individuals, including himself, through a series of cunning financial schemes.
To further illustrate his point, Peterside recounted a personal experience where Damina reportedly asked him for $1,000, promising a miraculous financial return in exchange.
The Super Eagles legend mentioned that Damina had guaranteed that this ‘seed’ would result in a significant harvest.
Interestingly, while Peterside did receive a windfall of $10,000, he is reluctant to credit this fortune to Damina’s ‘seed-sowing’ claims, suggesting instead that it was simply a coincidence.
He concluded by stating that the rumored financial difficulties and turmoil within Damina’s ministry may be seen as divine consequences, a personal reckoning from God meant to encourage him to reflect and change his ways.
