Great things can come from unexpected quarters. At a time when governments are building state-of-the-art facilities and businesses are competing in this enterprise, some churches have also risen to the challenge and have done incredible things. Bishop David Oyedepo, the founder of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, now leads the park with his Ark Legacy Project.
Keyboard warriors on Nigeria’s social media are preparing to engage themselves. The course for their debate is none other than the Ark Legacy Project, the brainchild of Bishop Oyedepo. According to reports, the project is almost completed and its completion will definitely send waves across the world.
To understand the gravity of the situation, one has to appreciate the grandness of the project. Based on observation, it is scheduled to be the biggest Christian worship auditorium in the world. Currently under construction at the Winners International Headquarters in Otta, Ogun State, the project is all selling points with giant numbers attached to it.
For example, the Ark Legacy auditorium is expected to seataround 200,000 people at one time. Secondly, when it was lastdiscussed across media channels, it was reported to cost around $200 million upon completion. That was far back in 2022, a year after construction started.
Presently, with the state of the nation, that cost estimate is likely too small. But the constructor in charge, LaraLek Ultimate Construction, will definitely make things reasonable regardless of the odds. This is an easy meal for the founder of the construction giant, Lekan Adebiyi.
Are Nigerians ready to see this massive auditorium? Are they ready to agree that Bishop Oyedepo is one of the visionaries of the age, a great mind with few equals? Yes, in a little while, the Ark Legacy Project will be completed and then eyes will pop in amazement and fingers run across screen pads in argument.
