PHOTOS: 7 of the Richest Pastors In Ghana and their Businesses
More often than not, we jab pastors for living THE LIFE whiles their members suffer. NsromaMedia.Com acknowledges that there is no denying the fact that most of these pastors have gone through thick and thin to attain this enviable feat of reverence and riches. We culled this from PREKESE GHANAMEDIA and they partly consulted with church websites, businesses, government resources, libraries and some Ghana media i.e Ghana Business News and News One.
Below is a list of Ghanaian pastors, according to how the public perceives them hierarchically. Categorically, these are sampled views of readers on the subject matter which was collectively put together by Prekese.

Dr.
Mensa Otabil was recently named the most influential personality in
Ghana. He is the founder of International Central Gospel Church (ICGC),
one of the biggest charismatic churches in Ghana. The church was
officially inaugurated on the February 26, 1984, in Accra. The first
meeting was held in a small classroom with a total of twenty people. Dr
Otabil is highly credited for turning the fortunes of many Ghanaians
around with his precise and talented teachings from the Bible.

Just
as ICGC began to witness rapid growth across the country, the Central
University College, the church’s central business arm, was born. It is
the second private university established in 1988 in Ghana to offer
pastoraltraining after Valley View University. Now, it has campuses
spread across Greater Accra. Central University currently charges
GH¢1,700 as tuition fee per semester, has its main campus at Dahwenya
near Prampram, whilst the first campus is still located at Mataheko in
Accra.
Today,
the university is the only private university with a Charter to award
