Popular ex-reality star, Pere Egbi, best known as Pere, has lauded the founder of Christ Embassy, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome, as a major reason for his success.

The former Big Brother Naija housemate credited Pastor Chris for his teachings, which played a huge part in his success and shaped him.

Pere admitted that he has never met the clergyman in person, but he wants him to know that he listened to his teachings in his 20s, and it greatly moulded and contributed to his success.

He wrote on his X handle, "Dear Pastor Chris Oyakhilome,

“Although we may have never met, I want you to know that the success I enjoy today is, in large part, thanks to the teachings I heard from you as a young man in my 20s. Your words have had a lasting impact on my life, and for that, I am deeply grateful.

“Thank you.”
