Members of a church in Abuja were left in shock after officials of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) reportedly demolished the church building while a Sunday service was in progress.

According to reports and videos circulating online, worshippers were forced to abandon the service as demolition equipment moved in and pulled down parts of the church structure. The incident has since sparked widespread reactions across social media.

Witnesses alleged that the demolition disrupted the worship session, leaving members scrambling to safety while trying to salvage church property. Videos shared online showed the aftermath of the exercise as congregants gathered around the demolished structure.

As of the time of filing this report, the FCDA has not publicly responded to the viral videos or the circumstances surrounding the demolition. The incident has continued to generate debate, with many Nigerians calling for clarification on the action and whether due process was followed.
