Nigerian music star, Divine Ikubor, aka Rema, has gifted a Christ Embassy church in Benin, Edo state, a whooping N105m.
The Afrobeats sensation made this donation during the Sunday service today.
According to Rema, the church stood by his family, financially and otherwise, when his father passed away.
In a video now making the rounds on social media, Rema said that it is “important to give back” to the church that has helped his spiritual life in many ways.
“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, prayed for me, and has kept me very consistent with my spirit.
“Firstly, I want to give a pledge of N40m to the infrastructure of the church. I want to pledge N20m to Rhapsody of Realities, and being the fact that I came from the teens church, I also want to pledge N25m to the infrastructure of the teens church.
“I’m pledging N20 million to widows in church today,” Rema said.

Rema reflected on when his dad died and a certain “Pastor Joy” and “Pastor Thomas” oversaw the church setup for his mom a shop to trade and make a livelihood to support the family.
“When I was eight year old, when I lost my dad, we felt 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 pastors of this church, they opened a shop for my mum and that was what she managed to take care of us,” Rema disclosed.
Rema had been in the historical city of Benin since Tuesday this week for his famed homecoming concert.
Rema performed in a packed 6, 000 seater auditorium as he entertained thousands of fans who thronged in to catch a glimpse of the superstar act live.
