The recent announcement that the Federal Government has approved the construction of an airstrip in Canaanland, the headquarters of Living Faith Church (Winners Chapel), has sparked mixed reactions online. Among the criticisms, one comment that stands out is, “Winners but his members never win lmaoo he’s the only one winning.”
This comment reflects a common narrative used to question the prosperity of religious leaders versus their congregation. However, this perspective overlooks the positive impacts such a project could bring, including improved access for visitors, job creation, and infrastructural development. Rather than focus on individual gains, it’s essential to recognize how such initiatives can contribute to the wider community’s growth, providing benefits beyond the church’s immediate membership.
