A simple Google search shows the redeemed camp isn't located in Lagos but Ogun State. Unlike the impression you get from the article, necessity is the master planner behind the redeemed camp. Imagine schools needed a routine get together in a single location. Small charter schools will be served by small headquarters. Virtually every church has yearly get togethers - conventions. However, the redeemed church has the largest number of branches in the country. Hence... Their current location was bought decades ago for dirt cheap because of its remote location and a den of robbers and kidnappers (I'm self-censoring here). It looks like the buildings sprang up effortlessly but the author of the article has no idea the place was once filled with thousands of canopies. The article's a fluff piece. Replace the article with a story about the size of Amazon, Facebook or Google without the historical context and you'll get a similar article.
