Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo formally took over the leadership of the Villa Chapel on Sunday.
The chapel was built by the administration of former President Olusegun Obasanjo.
The chapel had always been controlled by a president or vice-president of Christian faith as the political head, while the president’s or vice-president’s chaplain is the spiritual head.
Former President Goodluck Jonathan would have handed over the chapel to Osinbajo penultimate Sunday when he attended service in the worship centre for the last time but for the vice-president’s absence.
Osinbajo attended service in the chapel for the first time yesterday accompanied by his wife, Dolapo; Bishop Wale Oke of the Sword of the Spirit Ministries; Senior Pastor, Living Waters Unlimited Church, Pastor Ladi Thompson and other clergymen.
The vice-president, who himself is a pastor, delivered a goodwill message to the congregation and later took the benediction.
He later proceeded to the children church where he prayed and took photographs with the children, along with members of his entourage.
