Bishop David Oyedepo, leader of the Faith Assembly church otherwise known as Winners Chapel has a stunning house inside Landmark University, Omu Aran, Kwara, North Central, Nigeria.

It serves as his base when he visits Landmark for Inaugural lectures, Convocation and Matriculation addresses and when he comes to preach.

The Bishop visits his hometown regularly for multiple objectives and allegedly stays there on those visits

He was close to the past Olomu of Omuaran, Oba Charles Ibitoye who died recently.

Herald sources gather that Oba Charles Ibitoye convinced Oyedepo to bring some colleges of Covenant University to Omu Aran. Oyedepo agreed but later chose to set up a full-fledged university in Omu Aran.

Landmark University now has over 400 Omu Aran indigenes working the PPD of the University. Allegedly hundreds more work the University farms. Landmark also has 1 of the biggest Health Centers providing healthcare to the neighbouring community as well community.

Statssocial a popular Nairaland blogger reports “My last visit to Omu Aran had me talking to indigenes and they were all unanimous in the fact that Oyedepo had contributed a lot to their community.”

“The house also probably serves as the base of other Members of the Governing Council of the University.”
