He revealed that, prior to taking up the project, the community had previously celebrated Mass in a classroom. The businessman also claimed the single act doubled his wealth soon after.

“This church you’re seeing, I spent over ₦60 million just to roof it for my community. It was a thing of shame that for decades, my people celebrated Mass in a classroom because there was no money to roof the church building. I took it upon myself and roofed it at the age of 25. Since I roofed the church, my money has doubled. I am bigger and better now than I was before I roofed the church," Blord said in the video.
