Ex-Big Brother Naija ‘Shine ya Eye’s housemate, Pere Egbi has again revealed his ministerial calling.
He spoke with Saturday Beats, stating that the burden was getting heavier daily and he would desire to accomplish it before he dies.
The reality TV star, however, made it clear that the call wasn’t about being a pastor of a church, but to serve God.

Speaking about his background, he revealed that he was raised in a solid Christian home by his mother, hence his thirst for God.
“First of all, I have not been called to be a pastor. There are five other ministerial offices according to Ephesians 4:11. The pastoral office is one of them. So, it’s more of a desire to serve God. I was raised in a solid Christian home by my mother who means so much to me.
“This is a call I have had from my younger days while in secondary school at Command Day Ikeja, Lagos. God calls and we are required to answer, but I’ve been running. The burden and the weight to answer is becoming heavier as the years go by and I have to answer. Hence, I know for a fact that it’s the last thing I’d be doing on earth before I leave.”
He also spoke about his works in his church and some of the values that guide him.
He said:
“Christ Embassy is my church and I have been a member from my late teens. I believe I was 19 when I started attending services at the Oregun branch of the church in Lagos. Pastor Chris Oyakhilome inspired me and still does. I functioned in the choir as a worship leader before I got caught up deep in entertainment. Values like faith, perseverance, persistence and hope guide me in life.”
