The news of popular Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo of KICC quitting full-time ministry to start a Real Estate business came as a surprise to many while some see it as a good decision.
It will recall that, Pastor Matthew Ashimolowo, Founder and head pastor of the Kingsway International Christian Centre (KICC) announced the appointment of his first son, Tobi Ashimolowo, as resident pastor of KICC in London.
The facts remain Pastor Ashimowo has been preaching the Christian gospel for over 40 years. Alongside his four decades of preaching the gospel, the founder of Kingsway International Christian Centre, KICC, also has a passion and calling for the real estate business. The televangelist is one of the biggest landowners in Lagos and Ogun State.
According to the information gathered, he started his real estate business at the age of 27 when he acquired a small parcel of land, he expanded it to about 900 acres of land in the Mowe area of Ogun State, where he built six estates before moving on to acquire more parcels of land in Ibeju Lekki coastal area of Lagos.
In addition to owning several properties in Pinnoch Estate, Lekki, Lagos, where he lives, in a luxurious, smart-enabled mansion, he also owns several acres of land scattered around Lagos where he is making a kill. He is currently building one of the biggest luxury estates in Lagos via his Makarios Luxury Properties.
The luxury estate known as Makarios: The Luxury Place, is a dream city as he would like to call it, a world-class project, an outstanding luxury place to live in that he hopes will rival the Dubai Marina. It sits on 95 acres of land where many rich people are now buying service plots.
The estate, which is being constructed by a German company, will feature about 11 number, 10-floor high-rise buildings, 192 terrace houses, and 18 detached houses at completion. He has earmarked almost 300 parcels of land on the luxury estate for sale.
While he has a full-time pastor managing the Lagos branch of his church, his first son, Tobi, is in charge of the London branch and headquarters of the church. He is ably assisted to ensure the smooth running of the church by his wife, Pastor Yemisi.
This allows him to expend enough time and energy on his real estate business and complete Makarios: The Luxury Place in record time. When he is not busy holding online early morning preachings and dishing out prophetic declarations, the 71-year-old finds time to impart knowledge on the real estate business.
