Winners Chapel Set to Build Private Airstrip Following Federal Government Approval

Bishop David Oyedepo, founder of Living Faith Church Worldwide, popularly known as Winners Chapel, announced that the federal government has granted approval for the construction of a private airstrip within the church’s headquarters in Canaanland, Ota, Ogun State.

Enhanced Accessibility for Worshippers

The proposed airstrip aims to improve transportation for congregants and visitors, particularly during large-scale events like Shiloh, the church’s annual international gathering. With the airstrip, travelers can now land directly on church premises, eliminating the need to travel to and from external airports.

Private Funding and Self-Reliance

Bishop Oyedepo emphasized that the project will be fully funded by the church, demonstrating its commitment to self-reliance and infrastructure development. This move underscores Winners Chapel’s dedication to investing in its community and facilities.

Construction Timeline and Safety Standards

Although the exact construction timeline has not been disclosed, church leadership has assured that the project will be executed swiftly and in accordance with stringent aviation standards. The airstrip’s development is expected to boost the church’s connectivity and accessibility.

Canaanland Expansion

The airstrip project is the latest addition to Canaanland’s expanding infrastructure, which already features various facilities, including educational institutions, hospitals, and residential areas. This development reinforces Winners Chapel’s status as a major hub for religious and community activities.

Bishop Oyedepo shared the announcement during the church’s Tehillah Night Special Edition, generating excitement among congregants. The project is anticipated to further establish Winners Chapel as a leading religious and community center in Nigeria.
