Pastor Nathaniel Bassey‘s Hallelujah Challenge event was stormed by dozens of unmarried ladies in wedding gowns at the Eko Hotel and Suites.
The festival was tagged a “dress like your miracle” night by Pastor Nathaniel Bassey which prompted the appearance at the gospel music festival.
It wasn’t just single women who dressed up; students also appeared in graduation gowns, and women who were seeking the fruit of the womb showed up with fake baby bumps or baby dolls as a sign of their trust for God’s visitation. The Hallelujah festival, took place from 6 p.m. of October 22, 2023 until midnight.
The Hallelujah Challenge is a praise and worship movement that Nathaniel Bassey started on Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube in 2017.
The event began at midnight, and thousands of believers from all around Nigeria and the globe connected online to raise their voices in adoration and prayer. They were all unified by the hashtag #HallelujahChallenge.
Following the movement’s success in 2017, it evolved into an annual festival with occasionally mind-blowing testimonies from attendees.
The Hallelujah event this year kicked of on the 3rd of October, 2023 and had ministers like Pastor Joshua Selman, Pastor Jerry Eze, Minister Lilian Nneji amongst others in attendance.
