Oyedepo’s 100,000-Seater Auditorium ‘The Ark’ To Gulp ₦160 Billion by Bobby4090: 6:14am On Apr 15, 2021
Living Faith Church founded by Bishop David Oyedepo is to spend a whopping over N160 billion to build its 100,000-seater auditorium, known as ‘The Ark.’

The ground breaking ceremony for The Ark was carried out by Bishop Oyedepo in March 2021.

Top source in Living Faith confided in PM NEWS that over N160 billion has been earmarked for the gigantic project.

It was learnt that N45 billion has already been released for the project, which has already kicked off and to be completed in three years.

First announced in late 2015 as the “Faith Theatre”, the 100,000 seat stadium-like project has now been officially renamed as “The Ark”, unveiled at the church earlier last Month.

Sited on about a 1,000 hectares of land (the site of the old Faith Academy compound), within the vast premises of the current church building, the Ark will specifically accommodate 106,000 seats and will include a 24 Floor Mission Tower (International Headquarters Facility) made up of two twin towers of 12 floors each.

Upon completion, the existing 50,000 seater Faith Tabernacle will serve as an overflow facility.

The massive project is being handled by Laralek Ultimate Limited, whose Managing Director is Adebiyi Olalekan.

Oyedepo had recently said members of the church would not be tasked to contribute for the project.

This is serious. Some states budget in Nigeria for a whole year is not up to that amount. That's what a church is spending in just a single project.
But iam sure if it's the Government building this... not less than N300 billion will be earmarked for this project... If at all its eventually completed.

Na wah oh.... Can't he do something beneficial for the members instead of building this contraption.
150 billion can change the life of a lot of people in many ways or look around for one of the project that our wicked leaders have refused to do and do it.
Before you quote me remember that this is what Jesus would have wanted.

This is nothing but entrepreneurial strategy of attracting patronage of the customers/clients

160,000 people empowered with a million each would have way more impact than this project in my opinion.

MY POINT EXACTLY !!!!

You too go far self.
If he shared 160 billion naira with 160,000 people each person will have 1 million naira.... Even if he shared it with 1.6 million people everyone will still have 100 thousand naira which will still go a long way.

I just hope the building of the Ark is visionary & not for showoff only,,,, coz Noah didn't just decide to build an Ark.



Anyway, more power to his elbow.

Wonderful! N160 billion for a place God does not dwell?


Acts 7 v 48-50;
48 “However, the Most High does not live in houses made by human hands. As the prophet says:
49 “‘Heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool. What kind of house will you build for me? says the Lord. Or where will my resting place be?
50 Has not my hand made all these things?

Acts 17 v 24-25;
24 “The God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by human hands.
25 And he is not served by human hands, as if he needed anything. Rather, he himself gives everyone life and breath and everything else



Know the above scriptures and know peace. God did not call Jesus or the Apostles or anyone for that matter to build grand monuments under the guise of “house of God” or “Temple” or “Church”


Patiently waiting for brainwashed dogs and religious zealots (especially those ones wallowing in poverty and ignorance) to attack without any iota of understanding.

Nigerians build churches and mosques instead of factories and go to these religious centers to pray for job. Buncha confused mentally enslaved people.
