Most six-year-old girls get dolls and games for their birthday unless the six-year-old girl is the daughter of Prophet Shepherd Bushiri, the pastor of Enlightened Christian Gathering Church. The South African preacher gave his daughter an $80,000 car for her birthday on December 21. A report by Ghalfa.com relayed most of the facts used in this article.

The child will not be able to use the gift for many years. She is not old enough to drive a vehicle. She is not tall enough for her feet to reach the gas or brake pedal. Besides, she is not able to read the driver's manual to learn the rules of the road to get a driver's license.

The vehicle

The expensive Italian Suv is a 2017 Maserati Levante that is reported to cost $80,000. Bushiri said nothing is too expensive for his daughter who is his pride and joy. He said he loves his first daughter, Israella Bushiri. It is admirable that he loves his daughter that much, but no one knows why he chose to give her a gift that she can't use for at least ten or more years. The girl is photographed standing in front of the Car with a very surprised look on her face. In some of the photos, she is sitting in the car and looking at all the gadgets.

The tribute

The pastor posted a lengthy tribute to his daughter on social media. He wrote how she is growing up and has given him a reason to smile.

He said that she has given him the opportunity to be called a Dad. He prophesied long life for her and ended the post by saying, "Happy Birthday, my Princess!"

Reaction to the gift

People know he has a flamboyant lifestyle for himself and his family. Comments posted underneath the YouTube video indicate that opinions are mixed when it comes to the pastor giving his young child the very expensive car.

Some people are questioning the pastor's motives for spending thousands of dollars on a vehicle that the child can't use right now. They are wondering why he didn't give her a more age-appropriate gift. Some accused the pastor of using the church money to buy the car.

While some say the car is a foolish gift, others defended the pastor by saying he can do what he wants to do with his own money since he is the richest pastor in Africa and can afford the luxurious gift.

Not the first time

This is not the first time Prophet Bushiri has given an expensive car to a family member. He surprised his wife, Mary Bushiri, with a Mercedes G-wagon for her birthday in August. The video that is posted on his Facebook page shows the two of them walking into the showroom for his wife to see her expensive birthday gift.

He wrote a tribute honoring his wife on Facebook just like he did for his six-year-old daughter.
