The Deeper Life Christian Church has completed its main auditorium located at the church's headquarters in Gbagada area of Lagos state and it is valued at over N5 billion (about $16 million). The 45,000 capacity church project which had gone on for about 13 years is said to be the fourth largest completed church auditorium in the world.
Nigeria presently has a plethora of mega church buildings under construction, all of which rank among the largest in the world. The MFM Temple with a capacity of 500,000, Faith Theatre which is 100,000, Salvation Ministries - 90,000, The Great Tabernacle of The Apostolic Faith Mission - 75,000 and The Lords Garden of Dunamis International Christian Centre - 70,000 are all under construction and are billed to be the five largest auditoria in the world in that order when completed.
