The acquisition of the new jet comes at a time of significant growth for Winners Chapel. The church has been expanding rapidly in recent years, with new branches opening around the world. The jet will allow church leaders to travel more easily and efficiently, supporting the church’s global ministry efforts.
The announcement of the new jet was made by Bishop David Oyedepo at the Faith Tabernacle in Canaanland, Ota, Nigeria, during the church’s New Year’s Eve service. In his sermon, Bishop Oyedepo declared that 2024 would be a year of “fortune” for the church, and he expressed his belief that the new jet would be a valuable tool for spreading the gospel around the world.
The acquisition of the new jet has generated mixed reactions from Nigerians.
