The chancellor of Covenant University, Bishop David Oyedepo, said on Friday that since the inception of the institution, he has not earned any wages.
Oyedepo, who is the founder of Living Faith Church, disclosed this during Covenant University’s 19th convocation.
The clergyman stressed that the success stories and personal growth of the students have been his true rewards.
During the event, the institution conferred first and higher degrees and presented prizes to a total of 1,607 graduates.
Oyedepo highlighted their contributions to various sectors such as aviation, fashion, banking, and ICT.
“I said this before God. I have not earned any wages from Covenant University since its inception. Your testimonies of success and breakthroughs in different fields of endeavour have been my earnings and wages.
“You are created to be a contributor. Find a place to contribute. You cannot be a contributor and be a failure. You will be part of the solution and not those who are problems,” he said.
