Capital oil CEO, Dr. Patrick Ifeanyi Ubah, who is well known for his philanthropy - has moved to the religious sector in a bid to do more for his people. The business mogul is single-handedly building a Catholic Cathedral named Assumption Cathedral - located in Otolo-Nnewi, Nnewi North Local Government of Anambra State with one hundred and nine churches and parishes under it. The Cathedral had been abandoned for years now due to lack of funds, according to reports.

Furthermore, to ensure that Catholic faithfuls worship God in a befitting edifice, the oil magnate started the construction of the Cathedral building made up of 2 layers and 146 underground tombs on a five storey building elevation with over 5,000 seating capacity and over 750 car parking capacity.

The tower foundation is also 12 meters deep filled all round in concrete powered by concrete mixers. Dr. Ubah, on receiving a report from a structural and integrity testing company that the roofing had failed an integrity test by -7% following the discovery of some integrity lapses, ordered the contractor to disconnect and pull down the already finished roofing immediately.

For the dismantling of the roof to be actualized, Dr. Ubah had to buy cranes from French construction company named Bouygues construction.

The pictures show the work on ground at the project site.

Foolish man, he could have used the money to help the needy around him, does he think that God can be bribed with big buildings?

Nice, it is better to invest in the things of God than to use the money to form a "terrorist" group for political gain
