Modern pastors own estates, universities and various luxurious assets, how did they do that? Well news reaching us indicates that, the richest pastor in Nigeria, Bishop Oyedepo is planning on launching his own airline company.

David Oyedepo airline
Nigeria’s richest pastor and self-styled bishop, David Oyedepo, has made a glistening addition to his business empire by floating an airline called Dominion Air. Oyedepo, who a few years ago ignited debate on flamboyant Christianity by acquiring his fourth private jet, is the owner of Dominion Publishing House, Covenant University and an elite secondary school called Faith Academy.


Sources within the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC), the agency charged with businessr egistration in Nigeria, confirmed the registration of Dominion Air with David Oyedepo as its chairman. Another source within a Lagos-based insurance firm known to handle most of Oyedepo’s  business said the airline project had been in the works  for six years and was only made a reality this year.  The broker who balked at putting figures to the number of aircrafts so far purchased authoritatively said none of them is on lease.
