The federal government has approved the construction of an airstrip within Canaanland, the headquarters of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, popularly known as Winners Chapel, in Ota, Ogun State.
NewsNGR reports that the General Overseer of the church, Bishop David Oyedepo, made this announcement during the church’s Tehillah Night Special Edition in Canaanland. Oyedepo stated that the airstrip would enhance transportation for worshippers and visitors, especially during large gatherings like Shiloh, allowing them to travel directly from the church premises without needing to go to the airport.
The new airstrip will also enable church members to land and park their aircraft at Canaanland, making it more convenient for those attending church events.
Oyedepo emphasized that the project will be entirely privately funded by the church, showcasing its commitment to self-reliance and infrastructure development. While a specific timeline for the airstrip’s construction was not provided, the church leadership assured that the project would be executed promptly and in compliance with all aviation standards.
