” I am still in the Primary school of my assignment”

Leading Prophetic voice and Shepherd in Charge of Champions Royal Assembly, Bro. Joshua Iginla, has finally broken the silence on the world record 80,000 sitting capacity auditorium known as City of Wonders that he is building in Kubwa, Abuja.

The fiery prophet opened up on the cathedral that has stirred up a lot of envy in Christendom during the 9th anniversary of the ministry on Sunday, December 6, 2015 inside the city of Wonders. He cleared the air by admitting that the building is indeed a 80,000 seater and that the design was by a Nigerian under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

“i got the revelation about the city of wonders in 1996. The whole building as it is now is just 13 months. A lot of people asked if its indeed a 80,000 seater and i can tell them that indeed it is but you cant describe it until you visit the place. Let me shock you more. This is not the promised land God is taking me too. The city of Wonder is just my primary school in the journey of my ministry. And by Gods grace, we never borrow a dime nor seek for any support from any politician. After the cross over night on December 31st, 2015 we will be using it as our permanent place of worship”.

.  The multi-billion naira project is already  roofed and only a visit to the ultramodern edifice can help one to grasp the extent of aesthetic wonders displayed over there and chunks of billions sunk inside the vast empire.
Sitting on several hectares of land,  the auditorium is a massive entity.  It’s like a four giant storey edifice with five detached elongated angles  entangled to a singular auditorium.  Each of the gallery sits thousands of worshipers while each detached  angles is a massive auditorium on its own.
The roof of each compartments is like the Jewish temple which speaks of wonders. A visit to the clergy’s office at the city of wonders revealed that its also a four floor edifice which strictly his office. When completed it will house his studio, computer room, control room, reception amongst others and has its own personal lift.

The international headquarters of the ministry called Champions City of Wonders sited at Chikakore, Kubwa, Abuja is arguably a record breaking 80,000 capacity auditorium which is arguably the biggest in the world when completed. It sits on 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.

Meanwhile, It was glamour and glitz as Bro. Joshua led Champions Royal assembly held their 9th anniversary in a powerful way. Popular gospel artistries, Chioma Jesus, Solomon Lange and Steve Crown added colour to the glorious service when they led the worshippers to the throne of grace through the rendition of their hit songs.

Steve Crown’s track, “You are Great” stirred the congregation to the mood of worship while Solomon Lange’s popular song, yabo raised the Tempo to high heavens.

Also, a Baby girl was delivered by a female participant within five minutes. While Bro. Joshua iginla was ministering on power demonstration.she went into labour and within five minutes the baby girl was born.

Being the first miracle baby at the city of wonders, Bro. Iginla named her Esther immediately and declared that he is giving the new baby girl a scholarship to university level.

Published

The House of Representatives’ Committee on Public Petitions has asked for a warrant of arrest to be issued on the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Olayemi Cardoso, the Accountant-General of the Federation (AGF), Oluwatoyin Madein, and 17 others over refusal to appear before it to answer questions on their operations.

It was gathered that the issuance of the arrest warrant was sequel to the adoption of a motion moved by Fred Agbedi, representing Ekeremo/Sagbama Federal Constituency of Bayelsa State on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at the committee’s hearing on Tuesday.

Agbedi, while moving the motion, said that the arrest warrant had become imperative following the attitude of the invitees, adding that the parliament worked with time and the CEOs had been invited four times but failed to respond to the invitations.

Agbedi said that the CBN Governor, the AGF and the rest of the invitees should be brought to appear before the committee by the Inspector General of Police through a warrant of arrest after due diligence by the House Speaker, Rep Tajudeen Abbas.

The Chairman of the Committee, Micheal Irom (APC-Cross River), in his ruling said that the Inspector-General of Police should ensure the invitees were brought before the committee on December 14.
It was gathered that the petitioner, Fidelis Uzowanem, had earlier said that the petition was anchored on the Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI) 2021 report.

Irom said, “We took up the challenge to examine the report and discovered that what NEITI put together as a report is only consolidation of fraud that has been going on in the oil and gas industry.

“It dates back to 2016 because we have been following and we put up a petition to this committee to examine what has happened.

“The 2024 budget of 27.5 trillion that has been proposed can be confidently funded from the recoverable amount that we identified in the NEITI report.

“It is basically a concealment of illegal transactions that took place in NNPCL; they have been in a sink with some oil companies where some companies that did not produce crude were paid cash core, an amount paid for crude oil production.”
