Celebrating the feat, the church described the achievement as more than a musical accomplishment, saying it demonstrated discipline, excellence, dedication, teamwork and the power of using talents to glorify God.

“This is more than a musical achievement; it is a testament to discipline, excellence, dedication, teamwork and the power of using our gifts to glorify God,” the statement said.

“From Nigeria to the world, Mountain Top Chorale has raised the banner high.”

The World Choir Games, often described as the “Olympics of Choral Music,” bring together choirs from around the world to compete in various categories.
