Parts of the Christ Embassy building in the Oregun area of Lagos has been razed down by fire.
The incident occurred on Sunday morning.
Thick black smoke was still billowing from the white edifice when TheCable visited the scene.
Personnel of the Lagos state fire and rescue service were on the scene to put out the fire.
Vehicular and pedestrian movement on the street where the church is located have been halted for the moment.
Worshippers told The Cable that morning service was immediately moved to Corner Stone — an annex of the church — due to the inferno.
A couple of worshippers said an electrical spark may have been responsible for the fire.
