A woman in Nigeria accidentally transferred N100,000 (approximately $270 USD) as tithe to her pastor instead of the intended N10,000. She immediately contacted the pastor, but he allegedly delayed returning the excess amount.

@adekunleoderinde said: “She claimed she wanted to send 10k, it ought not to reach the level before her entire 100k be returned then she pays her 10k tithe. It is better she gets the entire money for audit trail and future issues. A call or text should have settled this between her and the pastor.”
