EPISODE 2 " If you want to own a house in Ikoyi, Lekki, or Banana Island, rise up on your feet and shout a thunderous hallelujah",  the tall plump man shouted into the microphone from the altar. And as expected, the congregation stood up with extreme excitement. "If you know you really want to own a house, come over to the altar and drop a tremendous seed before the Lord," he said aloud again and the ushers led the way to the altar for those interested in dropping a seed.
