“This is a giant step in our quest to bring Marathon Messiah’s Praise to the doorsteps of every living being on the planet. As we are adding more countries this year, our mode of operation has a new touch. We will have two separate stages this year, for Nigeria and the diaspora,” he said.

Marathon Messiah’s Praise will be held in 15 countries, including the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, Spain, UAE, Cameroon, Kenya, Netherlands, Sweden, Malaysia, South Africa and Ireland, as well as Nigeria.

The event will be aired live but Dove TV will be the only network airing a mix of content for the diaspora and Nigeria.

One hundred and fifty ministers and choral groups will take part, with 100,000 people in attendance.

The event will also be shown on other TV channels, yet to be disclosed, and via YouTube.
