Africa's biggest Jesus statue unveiled in Imo state

Nigeria on Friday unveiled a nine-metre tall statue of Jesus Christ carved from white marble, thought to be the biggest of its kind in Africa.
Standing barefoot with arms outstretched, the "Jesus de Greatest" statue weighs in at 40 tonnes.

More than 100 priests and hundreds of Catholic worshippers attended the nine-metre (30-foot) statue's official unveiling in the village of Abajah in Imo state, Nigeria.

The statute was commissioned by Obinna Onuoha, a local businessman who hired a Chinese company to carve it. It was placed in the grounds of a 2000-capacity church that he built in 2012.

In his homily at a Mass before unveiling the statue, presiding bishop Augustine Tochukwu Okwuoma said it is a "very great symbol of faith" for Catholic worshippers and passers-by alike and remind them of the importance of Jesus Christ," The presiding Bishop blessed the statue after mass.
 
The cost of the statue has not been revealed.
 
The 43-year-old boss of an oil and gas service company timed the statue's unveiling to coincide with his parents' 50th wedding anniversary.
 
He said the idea of building a giant statue of Jesus came to him in a dream nearly 20 years ago.
And when his 68-year-old mother fell seriously ill a few years ago, she made him promise that he would build a church if she survived.

    God told us not to make or worship any graving image of any kind including that of himself. So this is really not good. No one knows what Jesus really looked like when he was on earth. All these are just assumptions.

    European domination wins again, inferiority complex wins again, stupidity wins again. Common sense loses. And who told this man that's the actual image of christ?

    Useless idiots,now I have confirmed why black people are called monkeys and apes incapable of reasoning.

    How many factories and industries did the black ape that built this fake ass white dude he called Jesus build for his community ?

    How many statue of his ancesstors did he erect anywhere around his village ? Youths are wallowing in abject poverty,no infrastructure but this brainwashed cow dung brain could afford to erect rubbish in the name of religion. Shame on you black people !

    The Bible says my pple are distroyed for lack of knowledge. (Ex 20v4-5) Says, Thou shall not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth. Thou shall not bow down thyself to them, nor serve. Please let us be mindful of what we do in the Name of religion.
