He claimed the retired cleric singlehandedly redefined stewardship and wondered if younger pastors would be motivated to follow in his footsteps, given his retirement.
He wrote on Facebook:
“For some reason, I missed Bishop David Abioye at Shiloh 2024. Was he not invited? I felt his retirement, it hit hard, having to work for many years and have to be retired base on age by a man older than you.
“This whole Shiloh has been like a family thing, Father, son, mother, son-in-law all preaching.
“It was time for him to be compensated, to enjoy, I mean look at projects like the Ark, massive universities, he was just retired, something feels so off about this.
“The man everyone praised for being loyal to Bishop and staying with him and not breaking out to have his own church, other Bishops who broke out will mock him, where is thy reward for years of faithfulness?

Alvan Chimere Okechukwu said:
“It hurts to see Bishop Abioye leave…but he also wrote the mandate which stipulates retirement plans for pastors even himself, as the first vice president he was not retired at 60 but given some extra time. mind you the mandate has been there since the commission started, it’s not something new……some things that a prophet does may not make sense now but in the future we will begin to see the reason why..it’s hard but it’s well, we will wait and see.”
