Apostle Chibuzor's Bold Acts of Kindness That Captured National Attention
Apostle Chibuzor Chinyere, the founder of Omega Power Ministries (OPM) based in Port Harcourt, has become a prominent figure in Nigeria for his extraordinary acts of generosity and kindness. While his charitable deeds have touched many lives, they have also ignited widespread controversy and discussion across social media platforms and beyond. This article delves into three standout cases where the apostle's interventions made headlines, showcasing his unique approach to philanthropy.
1. Supporting the Family of Late Deborah Samuel
In May 2022, following the tragic lynching of Deborah Samuel, a Sokoto student accused of blasphemy, Apostle Chibuzor stepped in with a dramatic gesture of support. He publicly appealed for contact with her family and facilitated their relocation from the North to Port Harcourt, welcoming them with open arms at the airport. The pastor provided the family with a fully furnished 14-flat mini-estate to ensure they would never pay rent again, along with a brand-new car for the father and a fully equipped restaurant for the mother. Additionally, he offered automatic scholarships for all her siblings to attend OPM's free schools.
This act of kindness was celebrated nationwide as a genuine display of generosity. However, years later, reports emerged of challenges faced by the family, including rent disputes and claims of ongoing hardship. Despite these later issues, the initial support remains one of OPM's most talked-about charitable efforts, highlighting both the impact and complexities of such interventions.
2. Rescuing Veteran Nollywood Actor Aguba
In 2022, when veteran Nollywood actor Aguba, known for his roles in classic films, was discovered living in dire conditions in Enugu, Apostle Chibuzor swiftly came to his aid. The pastor provided Aguba with a comfortable apartment in Port Harcourt, employed staff to cook and care for him, and promised free food for life, along with plans to build houses for him in both his village and the city. The most attention-grabbing aspect, however, was the apostle's pledge to find Aguba a wife.
This promise led to a social media sensation when Aguba insisted he would only marry a maiden from Israel, rejecting Nigerian widows presented by the pastor. The situation escalated in 2024 when Aguba publicly demanded that all promises be fulfilled, prompting Apostle Chibuzor to threaten returning him to his previous circumstances if he continued to reject help. This episode became a source of both amusement and debate online, with Nigerians divided over the sincerity of the assistance versus the unconventional demands.
3. Arranging a Wedding for Adopted Son Aboy Chibuzor
Aboy Chibuzor, a non-verbal autistic man abandoned at the OPM church gate as a child, was raised by Apostle Chibuzor as his own son. Recently, the pastor disclosed that Aboy has uncontrollable sexual urges requiring proper care. In response, on Sunday, March 29, 2026, after a controversial public search for a wife that drew significant backlash, Apostle Chibuzor officiated Aboy's wedding to an older single woman, a church member and mother of three.
The couple received extensive gifts, including a N10 million cash gift, a free house, an overseas vacation, a monthly salary, free medical care, and a promise of an additional N20 million after ten years if Aboy is still alive. While some praised this as an act of compassion, others questioned why healing was not attempted before marriage. Nonetheless, the quick wedding demonstrated the apostle's commitment to providing Aboy with what he deemed a complete life.
Conclusion: A Legacy of Generosity and Debate
These three events encapsulate Apostle Chibuzor's bold and generous style, which consistently keeps Nigerians engaged in conversation. Whether viewed as inspirational or controversial, his actions through Omega Power Ministries have undeniably left a mark on the national consciousness, sparking discussions about charity, ethics, and social responsibility in modern Nigeria.
