A video revealing the interior of Pastor David Ibiyeomie's new church has set Nigerian social media ablaze, with viewers stunned by the sheer size of the facility.

The footage, shared on X on Thursday, November 5, 2026, appears to have been captured from an upper balcony or mezzanine level, panning across a vast auditorium filled with neatly arranged blue seats.

According to descriptions accompanying the clip, the hall has the capacity to accommodate up to 120,000 worshippers at a time.

Inside Ibiyeomie's new auditorium

Beyond the seating in the cleric's church, the facility contains structural pillars that double as housing for offices and additional gallery spaces designed to hold even more congregants.

At the front of the hall in the clergyman's church, a large screen is mounted above the altar area, intended to broadcast proceedings to those seated far from the stage.

A suspended line-array speaker system hangs overhead, ensuring the audio reaches every corner of the space.

The video's caption, which described the building as "Hand of God," fuelled further conversation online, with many users calling it a remarkable architectural achievement while others questioned the priorities behind such a project.

He recounted two incidents in which vehicle tyres burst and claimed both drivers had failed to pay their tithes, arguing that believers should not blame every difficulty on the devil.
