The Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries, MFM, a popular church in Enugu was, 2 days ago , demolished by Enugu State Government.
The large worship centre, located at the foot of the Zik Avenue Bridge in Enugu State capital, was demolished after it was said to be sitting illegally on two plots of about 2,000 square metres.
The pastors and members of the church, who were said to have been praying for God's intervention in the matter since the government declared its intention to demolish the building last year, watched helplessly as four bulldozers reduced the one-storey structure to
rubble.
They rushed into the building and moved the church property to one side of the auditorium, pleading with the officials of Enugu Capital Territory Development Authority, ECTDA, who were supervising the demolition, to spare the property.
Law enforcement agents, comprising men of the Police Mobile Force and the Nigerian Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, prevented some youths of the church from stopping ECTDA officials from demolishing the structure. No arrests were made.
