The president of UT Holdings, Mr Prince Kofi Amoabeng has revealed that he does not pay tithes.
In
an interview on Starr FM Friday, Mr Amoabeng said although he believed
in God and went to Church once in a while if there was a wedding or
funeral, he was not a tither. Mr Amoabeng said: “I don’t pay tithe. I
would not give 10 percent and nobody can force me to give 10 percent of
my money to anybody. So I don’t pay tithe. I do all sort of
philanthropic jobs myself. I see where there is the need for me to help
and I help.
“I don’t have to give it to somebody who then decides
where to put the money. So it is my hard earned money and I should put
it where I want to put it.”
He, however, stressed that he did not think paying tithes was a bad thing.
“I’m
not saying payment of tithe is bad. I’m not here to say ‘don’t pay
tithe’. No. I think it depends on what you see the church for and what
the church means to you and does for you.”
Mr Amoabeng recently retired from his post as the CEO of UT Bank.
