Popular media personality, Daddy Freeze has countered General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, who during the week, said one of the things he must do before he dies is to build a church as big as Ibadan city in Oyo state.
Preaching on the third day of the Holy Ghost Congress 2019 holding at the Redemption Campground, Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, Pastor Adeboye said he has a plan of building a church as big as Ibadan. According to him, no one should believe he is dead until that is done.
Freeze has now countered his dream. In a post shared on his Instagram page this evening, Freeze said what Nigeria needs now are factories and not more church edifices as he already has enough of that.
