VIDEO: Fire guts RCCG church auditorium in Lagos
Barely three days after the General Overseer of the Redeemed Christian Church of God (RCCG), Pastor Enoch Adeboye, had lost his son, Dare Adeboye, one of the church parish at Alapere in the Ketu area of Lagos State has been gutted by fire.
It was gathered that the fire incident which occurred on Sunday morning destroyed several properties belonging to the church.
A video shared on social media on Sunday showed the church in flames, with several cars, including worshippers, suspected to be trapped within.
This was disclosed in a video by a blogger, @EbituPromise via his Twitter handle on Sunday.
Details of the incident remain sketchy as of the time of filing this report.
A staffer of the Lagos State Emergency Management Agency (LASEMA), who prefers not to be named, because he is not authorised to speak, confirmed the incident.
“Not that it just happened now, the fire started in the morning and has since been put out,” the staffer said.

Nosa Okunbor, the LASEMA spokesperson, however, said he was to confirm the incident.
“I’m awaiting confirmation, I will give a statement once I confirm,” he said.
The incident occurred as the RCCG is still in mourning, following the death of Dare Adeboye, son of the general overseer of the church.
