Enugu Church Building's Collapse Imminent As Flood Wreaks Havoc (Photos)

After ignoring the "Stop-work"/ “Remove” orders by the Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority (ECTDA), structures on the premises of The Lord's Chosen Charismatic Revival Movement's headquarters in Enugu, have been badly damaged by flood, exposing the church building to imminent collapse, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV had reported that a section of Enugu residents living at the bank of Ekulu River, G.R.A, adjacent to the church, had raised the alarm over the imminent danger posed by the worship centre, which was built on the waterway on their property.

Inscriptions on the ongoing construction work at the church’s premises, show that the ECTDA had served “Stop-work” / “Remove” notices on the structures, but was completely ignored until the recent havoc which has wrecked the foundation of the church building.

Some residents of the neighborhood had lampooned those criticizing recent activities of the ECTDC, especially on social media, aimed at sanitizing and restoring Enugu City to its original master-plan. They noted that one of the grave consequences of such mischief against the development control agency is what the state is experiencing at the moment at The Lord’s Chosen worship centre in Enugu.

Igbere TV recalls that a three-story building under construction at Ezeluike Street, Olympic Layout, off One Day, Agbani Road, Awkunanaw, Enugu South Local Government Area of Enugu State, which was marked “Stop-work” by ECTDA recently collapsed after the contractor neglected government's order and continued work on the property.

The residents therefore charged the state government to enforce discipline and deal decisively with the alarming rate of illegal structures on waterways in the state, without fear or favour, in order to save lives and avert avoidable damage of people’s property by flood.

The God of Chosen will suspend the church on air and will never allow it to be eroded, it is all about Faith which Enugu State Development Authority has not got!

Serious something o, the rain will be much this year..patronize us today

The owners of the building should be arrested for ignoring directives!

The land is obviously a flooded area

Poor Engineering construction....Dem dey build fence even ontop waterways

b

Lamidi cownu; be like this is caused by Buhari and Northern Nigeria
His followers; Yes our Messiah we saw them

They keep causing flooding because of blockade of natural water ways. People will buy land of 100x100 and ensure that their building occupies 100x100 space. No right of way allowance, no drainage line, no green area

Never try to cheat nature

They should tie their church banner on it
Or that bullet proof their members put on, this is the time it should be made use of

Once they do that, the flood will always find its way like the red sea

Even their church Apron can't protect the church

Typical!

No forest again

No trees again


Home of Landlock and erosion.

Reinforced concrete retailing wall is the simple solution. It may cost a lot but it will be worth it in the end

You think it's by wearing neon green sign board? Nature doesn't respect nothing if you doubt watch this space.

Trash

Shey this is thesame building some residents report some days ago npe it's blocking drainage and diverting erosion?

What kinda surveyor will even approve for this!!

Only a multi million naira retaining wall will save the day....

But who are these idiots who approve of buildings to be erected on any soil in the first place? This is the more reason why we keep recording series of building collapse in this country. The useless bodies that are in charge of Approving or disapproving buildings just go ahead and approve anything as long as they've received bribes not minding the problems that will arise in future.. I just hope this church members would not be foolish enough to still keep attending services here till the day it will finally collapse on their heads..
