Damina stated that Jesus didn't pay or receive tithe from anyone in the bible. The cleric, who claimed several of his colleagues were copying his template, also spoke against the idea of pastors resigning their jobs because they were called to ministry.

"Why are you asking for tithe, if you look at the book of Act, nobody paid tithe to anybody, Jesus didn't pay tithe, Jesus didn't receive tithe, the disciples of Jesus have professions, all this idea that because God has called you you must resign your job I don't know where that idea is coming from, some of this pastors are using my template," he said.
