The amiable governor while giving a remark at the Birthday Thanksgiving service held in honor of the Shepherd in charge of Champions Royal Assembly, Bro. Iginla inside their ongoing N10 billion 80,000 sitting capacity auditorium in Kubwa Abuja said against all odds it was Iginla who revealed to him emphatically how he would emerge governor.
According to him, he even predicted to me that I would face a lot from rejection from my good friend, the former governor of my state and my exit from PDP. I was shocked that all he predicted came to pass according to his words . His message to me one on one was even before all those things happened and that’s why i have come to celebrate with him
Meanwhile, the international headquarters of the ministry called Champions City of Wonders sited at Chikakore, Kubwa, Abuja is near completion. It is arguably a record breaking 80,000 capacity auditorium which is arguably the biggest in the world when completed. It sits on two hectares of land with 350 toilets and four floors. Surprisingly, the world class ultra modern auditorium has 12 escalators, nine electronically operated elevators and three hectares of car park. Speaking about the new auditorium during the Ministers conference on Saturday, June 27, 2015 titled, Fire in My Bone, held inside the new auditorium, the amiable clergy said,” This is surely the work of Grace as we owe no bank a dime nor did we borrow any money from any bank to build this city of Wonders. In fact, it’s the architect and the engineers I am waiting for to complete the structure as the provisions are on ground. As regards the issue of who my spiritual father is, I can tell you that my appearance is not magical. I have spent 25 years behind the pulpit and my Spiritual father as directed by God is Yonggi cho”
