Founder of Christ Embassy Church, Pastor Chris Oyakhilome has said the fire incident at the church’s headquarters in Lagos was not an accident but an “avenue for bigger and better things”. 
Oyakhilome said this during a live Sunday service at the church’s campground located at Asese in the Obafemi Owode Local Government Area of Ogun State, along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway.
Multiple videos on Sunday morning show the church headquarters at Oregun in Ikeja, Lagos was engulfed in flames. The men of the Lagos Fire Service were deployed to manage the situation.
“Nothing happens in the life of a child of God by accident. During the 2001 Ikeja cantonment bombing incident, the building vibrated so much and we thought it was going to collapse. I thought to myself that if it collapsed I was going to build a bigger, better one. At the end of the day it didn’t collapse and we called the engineers to see if there was any need to bring it down and rebuild but it was still okay.
“Now that this has happened, we will build a bigger, better, and more glorious one and the devil will lick his wound,” Oyakhilome said in reaction to the incident.
