Outrage As Congregants Slept In Night Cold At The Gate Of Popular Lagos Church by Gistmedia10: 2:30pm On Jul 07
Outrage has erupted after a video surfaced showing congregants sleeping outside the gate of a popular church in Lagos. The incident, which occurred in the early hours of Sunday, has led to widespread criticism of the church for its perceived insensitivity. shocked

The video, shared by a concerned Nigerian man who witnessed the scene, shows dozens of people, including women and children, sleeping on mats and makeshift beds outside the church premises. These congregants had arrived early in anticipation of the Sunday service.

Critics argue that the church, known for its large congregation and significant influence in the community, should take better care of its members. "If they can build massive structures and collect offerings, they can certainly arrange for proper accommodation for those who come early," one social media user commented.

Most of these Pentecostal churches are more of a nuisance to society and contribute more to the problems of the society.
If not for religious stupidity,why should this fate befall these unthinking fellows?
Catholics, remain stuck in your church, Anglicans, Methodists same too.
Never ever desert your church for any hopeless Pentecostal church.
God answers prayers in every church.

Laws governing religious bodies in Nigeria is very poor. Government don't monitor their account books as they don't pay taxes, such funds are for charity and should be accounted for. Charitable works such as feeding, housing, cash for needy, medical outreach undecided
Very few engage in such act. That's why money embezzlement is coming in branches

Make government provide basic needs of their citizens as is obtained in saner climes and watch the population of churchgoers drop significantly.
It is very easy to manipulate someone who is in severe poverty.

We have found a very direct correlation between poverty and religious brainwash..

People are losing it all.. they think all they have left is their faith, they are hanging on to that.. and some religious entrepreneurs are taking advantage of that really well..🤔🤔🤔

Is that redeem church ?

The NAtional assembly should pass a law empowering the state to take 50% of church and mosque earnings. That money should be used to cater for the social welfare of the poor

Mad man would blame church rather than foolish attendees who are behaving abnomally.


If church overcrowded did u need to be told to go back to ur house?


If they allow everybody inside, ....mad man would still be the first to rush to nairaland to lament as usual
