you are trying to take side with evil man. you are part of his evil plan. we do not care about your breakdown. the man is a demon possessed pastor. a wicked and heartless man using the hard earned cash of innocent nigerians to enjoy his life here. every good thing must come to an end. evil old man and you the poor silly people promoting his extravagance
HigherEd:
Chai ppl said the church is already going broke because of freeze. But today the same church is currently building two universities at the same time, procuring a jet and still building a multi billion estate.

I'm sure they sold the N633WM because of the recent air mishap enroute Isreal - Cyprus. If one must use a jet, one should kukuma use a good one not a flying casket.

Anyway the church only owns ONE jet but has used five in totality. I.e sell and buy new one. Let's settle that before the propagators of fake news take the story to another level.


I do earnestly await the CU Teaching Hospital project, dunno why they are stalling on that one...

Bishop Oyedepo announces arrival of brand new Church Aircraft

*All previously owned aircraft sold out.


*Says ‘What God cannot give me, let me never have it’.

By Leke Beecroft

Bishop Oyedepo today announced the arrival of a new aircraft bought by the Living Faith Church aka Winners’ Chapel. Previously the Church had sold out all her old aircraft including the helicopter and the Challenger 605 with registration, N633WM as stated earlier by Church Gist.

The Bishop had announced in April 1982 at a ‘powerhouse’ meeting held at the inception of the Church among other things that God had told him that the ministry will soon be on wings carrying the gospel to the nations of the world. All except one of the several points itemized during that meeting has seen the light of the day in the 37 year old Ministry. Since 1996 when the first Aircraft, a Hawker Siddeley 25 with registration 5N-WMA (World Mission Agency), was purchased at one hundred million naira (N100 million), Winners’ Chapel has used at least 5 different fixed wing aircraft and one helicopter while each of them as a tradition is always sold for an updated model as they begin to age.

The Church has strong presence in over 60 nations of the world and has invested in heavy Church and educational infrastructure particularly in Kenya, Ghana, DR Congo, Congo Brazzaville, Benin Republic, Zambia and in over 30 more African countries as well as UK, USA and many more across the 6 continents. The Bishop and his lieutenants visit all the Churches located in these nations annually in what is called ‘apostolic visits’ usually between the month of April and October. It will be recalled that in one of such hectic visits in 2004, his wife, Pastor Faith Oyedepo fell ill and though she’s back to her duties in the Church, except for few visitations to particular nations, she is excluded from the rigors of the annual apostolic visits.

Announcing on Sunday morning, Bishop Oyedepo who had unsuccessfully tried to join the Nigerian Airforce through the Nigerian Defence Academy in 1973 said to the congregants at the 50,000 capacity Faith Tabernacle during the first service:

‘Men and brethren we have a brand new Aircraft at the airport’. Shortly before that he had announced in his sermon about the virtues of love and giving as well as exhorting on the need to focus totally on God that:

‘What God cannot give me, let me never have it.
Where God cannot take me, let me never get there.
What God cannot do for me, let it remain undone.

The Bishop and his team have survived a number of aircraft mishaps, the last coming in 2017 which led to thanksgiving across the branches of the Church Worldwide.

Books alone can't give him the wealth he has.

Church money and gifts must join. Good luck to him sha.

As humans, we all have our own mission on earth. If building softwares and spending billions of naira to make health care affordable to the poor is Bill Gate's mission on earth then good for him. And if preaching the World of God and building schools that only the rich can afford is Oyedepo's calling then good for him.

Me too go do my own calling... God help us all.

hey make dem de hammer church members de buy private jet of 25 million usd....imagine


NA SO WE HEAR SAY DAVIDO DON BUY JE....BIG HOAX.....

Buying a private jet no be beans. Even the super-wealthy cringe at the idea.

Some super-wealthy individuals, who actually might be able to afford one, do not consider it a wise financial decision.

Sean “P Diddy” Combs, the Forbes-listed hip-hop mogul, not too long ago admitted that he could not afford owning a complete private plane. Well, he does actually own a wing of a private jet. He co-owns it with someone else.

It was recently rumoured that mega-star Celine Dion’s Bombardier BD 700 Global Express XRS was put up for sale, ostensibly, due to the high maintenance cost.

Now, back to the Davido’s jet acquisition claim.

Until we see the aircraft “kororo” at MMIA, together with the documentation bearing his name, it remains just a rumour.

However, here are a few things you should know about how much it costs to own and maintain a Challenger 605.

1. To buy a brand new Bombardier Challenger 605 be ready to part with approximately $27m.

2. If you cannot afford a brand new one, you could settle for a tokunbo (used) one. A used vintage 605 goes for $15m.

3. The cost of flying a private jet depends on the number of hours it flies and the nautical miles it travels. For instance, if it travels 175,000 nautical miles and 423 hours per year, owners should anticipate variable expenses of $1,515,813 annually.

4. The greatest chunk of the expenses on a 605 is spent on fueling it. Actually, about 65% of the cost of operating a 605 it is spent on fueling it.

5. The cost of fueling a 605 is estimated at $2,346 per hour out of a total variable cost of $3,583 per hour.

6. The 605 is estimated to use 329 gallons of fuel per hour.

7. So, in a singe year, the total cost of ownership of the Bombardier Challenger 605 is $3,481,595 including market depreciation of ($1,240,920) or $5,342,974 including book depreciation of $3,102,300. Both figures include fixed costs per year of $724,861.
8. Here is a summary of the cost involved in owning and maintaining a Challenger 605. which dem say Davido Buy ....
Crew Salaries – Captain $138,000
Crew Salaries – Co Pilot $95,000
Crew Salaries – Flight Attendant $75,000
Crew Salaries – Benefits $92,400
Hangar – Typical $59,900
Insurance – Hull $31,023
Insurance – Single Limit Liability $12,500
Recurrent Training $66,800
Aircraft Modernization $33,333
Navigation Chart Service $15,205
Refurbishing $94,500
Computer Maintenance Program $10,500
Weather Service $700
Total Fixed Cost per Year $724,861

SO THIS IS HOW OYEDEPO N ADEBOYE N OYAHKILOME...spend much on maintaining a jet ...shame to them

Good Reasons To Consider Flying First Class

Hmmm....then I guess Living Faith Church is not for the poor. If a church is not a santuary for the poor and homeless...the downtrodden. ...then it is not a church of God.
@ topic.... I have no problem with these guys buying jets and living in luxury..... I have a problem with them misleading their people into believing they are a church of God when in fact they are Prosperity Churches....which has nothing to do with spirituality but everything to do with gathering earthly possessions.

Oh sure they do. They plan to build a 700 bed teaching hospital which is 300 bed bigger than that of ABUAD. But I don't know why it has been stalling. I do hope it would be very soon though....

Being blessed is not about how prayerful you are, it's not about how holy you are , either you are religious or faithful to ur religion's belief, all these have no attachment to prosperity, Being blessed is mysterious and the basic key to unravel the mystery of prosperity js giving. Luke 6:38 attestates to this!

You bought a new airplane for yourself to enjoy, also contributing to government coffers through taxes and other levies, but the poor and foolish christians who contributed 10 percent of their sweat to fund your life style have nothing in return. Ah, Mr MOG you are wicked!

Will you keep quiet!!! No true CHRISTIAN tither is poor...

How can the Glory of God be made manifest in their lives when they tithe on sundays and pray pulling down the heavens; then go on and sin(fornicate, hate and other shit) for the rest of the week till the next Sunday...then they repeat the same cycle.
A lot of them don't even tithe correctly...

I'm a Christian but I still laugh at Christians for being foolish in tithing(wrongly and with a grudging heart).

The poor don't fund Oyedepo's lifestyle... Just one business person who knows Oyedepo's impact in his life can decide to take care of a chunk of his expenses for a very long time... I've seen people give to Pastors voluntarily without being asked to...and these people keep on getting richer and richer...

It's not a matter of grace bros.

It's simple.

All you need be is charismatic.

Open a church and have over 50 people (to start with) contribute their 10% to you every month and see how your life would turn around for the better.

If churches don't pay tithe and offering, these MOGs won't be this flamboyant. It's simple math.

Oyedepo doesn't make an impact on people's lives. God does.

Don't be stupid please. It's people like you that give Christianity a bad name. Sane Christians don't worship men.

A good number of their members are wallowing in poverty.
