The initial planned capacity was 40,000 but because of the increase of members and prodding by David Ibiyeomie’s father in the Lord, Bishop David Oyedepo to do ‘better than his father’; Ibiyeomie was encouraged to expand capacity of the building. Same thing happened to Pastor Paul Enenche of Dunamis leading to the increase of Glory Dome from 75,000 to 100,000 capacities.
