Bishop David Oyedepo commissions church owned Multi-Billion Naira 15 Megawatt Power Plant at Winners' Chapel Headquarters in Canaan-land Ota Ogun State. Bishop Oyedepo is the Founder and Presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church World Wide, also known as Winners Chapel. The Headquarters of the church is reported to be the largest church auditorium in the world according to the Guinness Book of Records. This auditorium named 'Faith Tabernacle' seats 50,000 worshipers. The idea of owning a power plant by the church originated from an urgent need to curb the ever increasing power bills as well as the huge amount spent on diesel. Another power consuming issue was that of Covenant University situated inside the Cannanland also owned by the Church. In 2012 alone, Covenant University, according to reports, expended over N700 million on diesel in addition to other costs incurred in running the university which made the move to get a power plant inevitable. Construction of the power plant began in 2014 and on Monday 31st August 2015, the plant was commissioned by the Bishop alongside his wife and principal officers of the church . As announced by the Bishop, the church is willing to supply power to major housing estates within Ota and environs. https://theunknownnigeriablog..com/2015/08/bishop-oyedepo-commisions-church-built.html?_e_pi_=7%2CPAGE_ID10%2C9165322429 Cc lalasticlala seun |

Now if a Church can do this why the hell can't Nigeria give us 24hrs electricity. Currently the whole of Lagos is sharing about 192MW(for 21 million ppl) of electricity. If/when the Church gives light to Ota communities I might just go and buy a land in Ota 5 Likes |

The business acumen of the Bishop is worthy of emulation. He is in the league of serial investors like Warren Buffet. I think the South West should nominate him as a replacement for Osibanjo in 2019 or better still present him for the presidential contest in 2019. |

Topgainer:Indeed Oyedepo is a very smart man and also a visionary but I don't see him going into politics ever-the pastoral responsibility is huge that he wouldn't have the time but we certainly need someone like him as President. |
