church business is serious business. Na fact!!!!

After about 25 years of construction work,
the multimillion Naira National Temple of The Apostolic Church Nigeria, TAC, touted as the largest church in the world, has been inaugurated in Lagos. Sited at the
international ground of the Church in Ketu, the newly dedicated temple has a sitting
capacity of 100,000 worshippers at a time.
The national president of The Apostolic
Church, TAC, and the chairman of LAWNA,
Pastor Gabriel Olutola thanked God who
enabled them to complete the temple.
He described the temple as “The House built with prayer,” stressing that it is a symbol of the church’s unification. Olutola also used the occasion of the
dedication to appreciate the sterling qualities of the pioneer LAWNA chairman, late Pastor Samuel Adegboyega who laid the foundation 25 years ago.
He lauded the efforts of the building committee, the national executive council of TAC and all the church members for their financial and spiritual support.
The National President of the Christian
Association of Nigeria, CAN, Pastor Ayo
Oritstejafor who dedicated the temple second door, also appreciated God for the success of the project In a sermon tagged; “The House of God”,
the Cameroon president of TAC, Pastor Paul Tambe stated that if saints humble and pray God will answer their prayers and heal their land.
Earlier in an interview, the LAWNA president traced the genesis of the imposing cathedral to August 4, 1957 when Pastor Isaiah Sakpo received a prophecy about the building of a national temple for the church. The foundation laying ceremony for the project took place during his leadership of LAWNA.
However, after the foundation was laid by his predecessor on May 10, 1986, it had almost become a reproach to the church because of the ugly sight it created in such a prominent area of Lagos. When Pastor Samuel Jemigbon came on board, he decided to take this reproach away. He created a separate department for the
national temple project with qualified
accountants and other experienced
professionals to supervise the work. According to Olutola: “We have being on this project and at a point we met a contractor who promised to complete the work for us for N14.3 million.
We gave him an advance of N5 million but he did not do one quarter of the job before he started demanding for another N5 million which is a clear indication that N40 million would not finish the job. We spent almost N27 million on the painting alone.
Olutola who could not tell the exact cost of completing the edifice, however, told our reporters that the floor tiles alone gulped about N143 million. “I will need the assistance of the accountants who would do a lot of mathematics for us to get the whole amount because by the time we wanted to paint, we discovered that there were some errors with the pillars and the walls. And we have to engage another contractor who came to perfect the job and what we thought would cost us between 300,000 and 600,000, cost us #2.3 million. “There were other minor jobs like that which made us to spend much more than we originally budgeted for. We had to lay cables for our public address systems separately, lighting and video,” he stated.

church business is a very big and serious business!!!

ElsonMorali:
I really shouldn't reply you, but I will. Scam is what you do when you try to deceive other people to gain undue advantage over them.

Scam isn't always about money.

So he using photo editing skills or his superb graphics modelling skills to spread a falsehood is scam.

Now do you understand or I still need to break it down for you?

Because you don't believe that mermaids exist does not mean they don't exist, they have been sighted in spain and even caught on camera. Its not everything that is a propaganda or a scam as you put it.

ElsonMorali:
At least If you're going to scam people make it a little bit less obvious.

Mermaid ko, mammy water ni.

And who is trying to scam, please always read the article before commenting, it is common sense.

richidinho:
Check how much was naira to a dollar during shagari regime and how much the dollar exchanged during his few months in power just like what is happening now

And you think it was Buhari that destroyed the strength of naira? Well I have told you to do a proper research on why the naira fell from 1980 till now. in summary the reason why we are where we are today is greed, our leaders, IMF,world bank, US and UK.

richidinho:
He was overthrown because he messed our economy up

You are totally wrong. it was babangida that messed our economy up. He was overthrown because of his stand against corruption in the military and the general public, he was overthrown because of his stubbornness to bow to the will of the IMF. Please do some research on it.

richidinho:
Ok... how many yrs did he spend?

The false information you passed is not the amount of years he spent in jail but the reason why he was jailed. Buhari was jailed by babangida after he was removed as the military head of state. He wasn't jailed because of the state of economy of nigeria at that time, but was removed because he wanted to retire babangida from the military, babangida was dealing in cocaine and had external support from the western countries. So babangida was a threat to Buhari and he tried to retire him, only that babangida was well connected in the military and with the IMF, with his connections he was able to execute a coup.

richidinho:
Even Buhari spent 3yrs in jail for collapsing our economy in 1984
Not new

Please stop passing false information.

zumbigbo:
You have the reasoning ability of a constipated buffalo on crack cocaine.

So you are not just a kidnapper, you are also a cocaine dealer, don't worry I know how I will deal with you.

Paul Jones posted the photos on Facebook, writing: "Today at Great Yarmouth we found what looks like a dead Mermaid washed up on the beach."
The images have now been shared over 20,000 times, and have attracted a great deal of attention from commenters trying to determine what the creature is.
Paul Jones posted the images on Facebook
Some conspiracy theorists are adamant it's a mermaid, with one poster writing "Rip Ariel", referencing Disney's The Little Mermaid.
Others were less convinced, suggesting it could be a dead grey seal, which are commonly found living in colonies off the east coast.

The 'mermaid' appears to be rotting away, with its mid-section already part decayed
However, it appears there might be a simpler explanation - Mr Jone's Facebook account suggests he is a keen modeller, with a special interest in creating creepy figures.

this man is greedy, very very greedy. such an opportunity and he just wasted it. dont lie on devil, he didn't push you, devil self dey innocent for this matter. well kirikiri is your next bus stop.

and he still thinks he is normal, he is mad already. No remedy!!!

fourthworld:
They will buy food from the East so stop being concerned but better think of how to continue to be in one Country with the Fulanis SESS are leaving for good and it will take you people unawares, also they will have the cash to import food so don't bother, after all Germany that imports it's drinking water has not died

You think it is easy, what you people don't know is more than what you know, when the war starts you won't wait to fight in it.

fourthworld:
Oh boy let me correct you, the ND won't beg for investors when they control their resources, they will use the money and develop the region to world class and investors will
trooping in. Investors consider income before investing, therefore the ND are doing the right thing, better to fight bravery and chase out the leeches than to fold hands and watch the parasites deplete the reserve at your detriment. Good job boys

I like your spirit, have you fought in a war before? Believe me you won't wait when you hear the sounds of M16s. You need some history lessons.

[quote author=fourthworld post=50512584]And did your stupid government give you electricity when they weren't bombing? Take your electricity lecture to the maroko slum. Nigeria never had electricity before, so Bombing shouldn't be an excuse for inadequate electricity [/quote
Are you in support of destruction? Have you ever seen the destruction a bomb can cause? have you ever asked yourself why nigerians don't protest violently? Its because the scars and memories of the biafra war is still there, and with militants blowing up pipelines and threatening to declare independence will only result to war. And believe me you won't ever want to experience a war no matter how narrow minded you may be.

oc2fish:
Bros na your papa land. Please face front. Tell your PMB that promise giving them 5%.

What you don't understand is that what ever happens there will affect all of us whether we like it or not. if they continue to blow up pipelines we won't have gas to generate electricity. Atleast you use electricity in your house, that is just one point in many more. So it also affect you too, we are still one Nigeria.

falxx:
You cry too much. Allow them to finish their land. What is your business here?

Its my business and your business as well because when they destroy their land where will they run to? It is our land they will run to!!!

NGOs are now used for fraud.

which man? Where is the man? If you think I will click that link you are sleeping in your dream!!!

this woman na confirm thief!!! Barawo!! Ole!!!

because they don't have the liver!!!!

in nigeria when you see policemen running please find a safe place to hid because if they shoot they always miss their targets and they end up killing innocent civilians and still tag them armed robbers.

lucky you. Just pray you never get to see the bad side of any policeman.

this is wrong!!! If she could get 266 years for stealing 8million, then what will patience jonathan, omisore, obanikoro, FFK, Fayose and the rest get? Our constitution and judiciary has been tailored to favour corrupt politicians.

these people don't care about the common man at all, all they want is to oppress us, steal and drain us dry. This is sad.
