FG Confirms Oyedepo’s Canaanland Airstrip Approval

The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Festus Keyamo, has announced the approval of a private airstrip at Canaanland, the headquarters of the Living Faith Church, also known as Winners Chapel, located in Ota, Ogun State.

David Oyedepo, the church’s founder, revealed this significant development during the Tehillah Night Special Edition at Covenant University Chapel on Sunday, where he celebrated with the congregation. “I am sure you will be glad to know that the Federal Government has approved an airstrip for Canaanland,” he stated.

The approval is expected to facilitate direct travel from the church premises, allowing Oyedepo and church members with aircraft to bypass conventional airports. “I won’t need to fly a helicopter to the airport. I can leave from here to wherever I am going,” he added.
