Pastor Tunde Bakare N18Billion Mega Church Auditorium Project In Ogba Ikeja Lagos Near Completion
The founder of Latter Rain Assembly, Tunde Bakare is about to complete his mega church project reported to cost N18 billion.
The new project is known as Citadel and will serve as the church’s auditorium.
Bakare has operated the Latter Rain Church at a single location on Akilo road, Ogba, Lagos without any other branch anywhere, for many years.
He tried to establish a few branches some years ago but soon reverted to status quo.
Located at First Bank bus stop on Oregun road, a short distance from the old Daystar Christian Centre, the new gigantic building under construction will house Latter Rain Assembly when it is eventually completed.
Reports say the church has committed an estimated N18 billion to the project.
Completion period is few weeks time as work is already advanced and in its finishing stage, reports Church Gist, a popular Christian page on Facebook.

I HAVE no problem with this kind of thing, provided that as the physical church is built, the even more important spiritual church is not neglected. Our problem today is that men of God engage in fierce competitions among themselves, and carnal trivialities eclipse the main things that the church is all about. May God help his spiritual church!

Christ will not ask us how many cathedrals we have instead He will ask how many souls we’ve won

I don’t think such is necessary. Why not use the money to establish a business that will employ people

I am not surprised, God said he will us pastors that will show us the way to heaven, while some of the so called Pastors were not called by God, rather they called themselves. I pity the spiritual bling folks that attend all these authordous Churches, they only preach prosperity and collect from you what God has blessed you with, without any questions. at the end of the day, the will all end in hell, I pray i will not be among them, you too

I have every problem with this as it is a waste of resources, misappropriation and wrong application of wisdom….. God is not interested in how gigantic the physical church structure may be rather he is interested in how gigantic the spiritual structure of the people of God in the faith and dedication to his mission here on earth…because the church is the body of believers and not the building or structure.

Craziness of the highest order.
How can you build #18b church when people esp your church donators are hungry and suffering and at the end of the day, you’ll still collect from them to maintain the church. God decides your faith not me.
Such amount can build factory that will house thousand of employees
But it’s a total trash
