If these churches gave just 10 percent of their weekly income to the poor (which Christ preached in the bible) Nigeria would become a paradise overnight!! we would have them all...

What of the muslim, Sango worshippers? The church is helping the poor in their own way. Btw do you pay tax to the church? No to the govt. If you want the church to replace the govt, then pay tax to the church

MrGoogle88:
More factories, schools, hospitals, research facilities...less of these mega churches I use god beg una...That is how first world countries are made...China can build 50 of these your churches, but they're too busy building and researching tech!! Black mentality, I tire for una!!


Church hasn't helped us in over 50 years of independence, it's not going to help us in the next 50 years!! we will remain like this while the world keeps going higher.

How has your whinging helped since you started?

MrGoogle88:


The fact that I don't know does not show ignorance but inefficiency...The truth is if these churches stood up and helped the poor, we would not be where we are as Nigerians!! Homes for elderly dey move you, please be honest, how has that affected your life personally?

It is until the church spoonfeed you that is when you will feel it. Uncle go and work and stop crying more than the bereaved. Hold your govt responsible in 2019, or else you will cry more than this

If #200 on the average is collected as offering every Sunday from all the member. that is #18000000. Total sum of #72000000 every month. Why i no open churh ooo？

AbdulHakeem44:

what is the good news here? is it celebration of infrastructure or celebrating spiritual embezzlement

Mr Abdulhakeem face your religion piss that is busy wasting human lives in the north east and leave Christians alone, it's not church buildings that is brainwashing the Islamic fanatics in the north east

FA13:


Use your head and shut up your mouth.

Face ur religion of 'peace'.

. The church is not the building, but the adherents. How well do they know God and follow his laws. That's what is Paramount not the building.

Meanwhile, U.S just landed another spacecraft on Mars.
That's an achievement

Was it churches in the US that landed the spacecraft in mars? Was it not the government in the US? Your grouse should be with the Nigerian government for not living up to it's responsibility

if u like complete trillion capacity auditorium! without winning souls for christ is as good as nothing.

They are winning souls for Christ daily

Why would I complain? I'm against building such unnecessary structure in the first place while people are starving...Jesus never thought that in the bible...

What makes the structure unnecessary? Have you been to the current location of salvation ministries in Port Harcourt to see how congested and stuffy the place is? The present location is a disaster waiting to happen. The building is long overdue, even the hospitals and school you talk about, if the students or patients in them have become to numerous to be accommodated in them would the next option not be to build a bigger structure or at least move to a bigger building? How can a pastor see how the building they are using is grossly inadequate to contain the people who come there to fellowship to the extent that people are being jampacked and still many left outside with no place to seat or even follow what is going on in the service and that pastor will just fold his hands and pretend there is no problem? You need to see the kind of traffic gridlock that happens there every service day because of lack of parking space. Members parking in adjoining areas and making movement difficult for everyone. There's a real risk of a stampede happening there not to talk of the security implications for the community. That new building was just a logical solution to a lot of problems, the madness that happens here every Sunday just couldn't continue. Moving to a bigger place is a win win situation for everybody.

Why not build mega hospitals with pioneering technologies such as stem cell treatment,biogenetics.mumu people, that 9k seater church is to ensure 9k idiots will the charlatan their 9k offerings and 9k tithes,

Religion, still the opium of the masses and the very poor. We celebrate buildings of religious houses, while developed countries celebrate innovations that will empower people and create massive jobs for them. PS: I don't engage in a religious debate/argument of any kind as I've realised people are damn fanatical about their beliefs which I think they earned a right to be, but I won't just join issues with such people!

Jesus is Lord forever, but to be honest God do not dwell In this kind of earthly magnificent sanctuary, I was at the service on Sunday, when David Ibeyome him self said the church need $7million dollars for the roofing alone, he said everyone must participate in the donation, the least money to donate is $50 about #18000 , I then asked, what happened to the current headquarter at GRA that we need new structure, a church 2/3 of it members are extremely poor are
erecting a magnificent structure of over $50,000,000 . it is well

One idiot by name Daddy Freeze would still react after the completion of the building

You've spoken the pure truth bro. It's just appalling to see people falling for this religious crap.

In my opinion, you're right! There's no difference between boko haram and this mofos. Their strategy is only different and not very visible.

The win win solution to the menace is to get rid of religion.

I only wish they open 90000 manpower capacity factories in Nigeria instead of does money collection centers.
Religion has don no good to this country.

If you go to developed countries, people do not pray for things they can get. Eg no one prays for good roads, security, good and quality healthcare, electricity, water supply, etc. It is a given that such things must be there. In the 21st century, an average Nigeria still pray for such things! We will not ask ourselves why that is so. Germans are atheists, go to their country and see how everything works. The hypocritical Nigerian religious person will be given money for a standard hospital, he or she will embezzle it and buy islands in the Caribbeans and tell you to pray to God you don't die in the empty hospitals! Most of the religion practiced in Nigeria is one of hypocrisy. People just prey on the people for their own personal gains. I rest my case.

Despite all the mega churches, Nigeria is still as filthy as ever.

Daddy Freeze right now.

dont allow hate to poison ur heart, have u been to the present location of the church do u know how congested it is? If a stampede occurs wont u complain? The mega hospitals u are talking about will u be happy if the only hospital u have around ur area constantly services people that are twice the number of people that they have the capacity to attend to

I wish Seun and the Nairaland mods can make this comment the first on the page. This is the fact! The fact of life!!

Yes more mega churches this will develop our economy and provide jobs for graduates. Let's build more mega churches..

The saved souls will be listening to Davidos lyrics and wiz wine your baca, go down low.

They can't take their eyes of the world yet they call the elves saved souls.

It's not by numbers or bragging rights. Organized confratal religion.

Go teach and learn love. It's were all things ends.

MrGoogle88:


If you think building a 90k auditorium is about winning souls, then I am sorry for you! Nigeria is a very friendly environment to run businesses like these because of people like you...Even me wan start church!! Read history, see how P.T Barnum built the carnival business in America decades ago when it wasn't a friendly environment...winning souls!! Be a good boy, pay your kingdom investments, make them richer...I go soon start my own...

Nigeria is friendly yet many companies are closing down I suppose or moving to Ghana

Now the race begins. The other churches will go beserk.

Intensify the tithing.

Good one. Open big churches on Lagos, Port Harcourt and Abuja. That is where the big Spenders reside. More money for the "children of God". Once you embezzle cover money, you give a percentage to the church. Can churches build industries? Hell no. Instead, they will rather build expensive schools for their big tithing customers.

And replace it with what? A freethinking world where there are no moral codes and everyone is free to do whatever he or she wants? Disaster!!!

And the competition has commenced.
