Divine Ikubor, known mononymously as Rema, Afrobeats SuperStar, has donated a total of N105 million to Christ Embassy Church in Benin City, Edo State, as a way of repaying the kindness shown to him and his family.
During the Church Service on Sunday September 1, 2024, Rema expressed his gratitude, saying, “I’m not here to give myself any accolades or glory. I’m here to give God the glory.
I feel like it is important to give back because the Church has embraced, and prayed for me, and has kept me very consistent with my spirit”.
“Firstly, I want to give N40 million to the infrastructure of the Church. I want to pledged N20 million to Rhapsody of Realities, and being the fact that I came from the Teens Church, I also want to pledged N25 million to the infrastructure of the Teens Church.
I’m pledging N20 million to widows in the Church today. “When I was 8-year-old , when I lost my dad, we felt very very lost and abandoned.
All that we had was taken from us and we felt very alone and I remember at the time Pastor Joy and Pastor Thomas, the Pastor of the Church, they opened a shop for my mum and that was what she managed to take care of us”, he said.
