Billionaire prophet and founder of Christ Mercyland Church in Warri, Delta State, Jeremiah Fufeyin, has said he was called to help the needy in the society.
Fufeyin stated this while hosting less-privileged Nigerians, whom he gave N13.4 million during a church programme.
This is coming at a time when poverty rate continue to grow in Nigeria as many people now face increasing cost of food items.
Over 33 women, who struggled to take care of their newborn babies, families whose shops were destroyed in Kaduna and NYSC members who served with the church were included in the provision of the financial support.
Most of the women who newly put to bed in the course of the church programmes were offered N150,000 each as most of the women reiterated what they were facing in fending for the babies before the man of God came to their rescue.
A lady who hails from Kaduna, whose the state government dismantled her shop was offered over N1.4million relief.
In narrating her ordeal, she said she came to the programme with her family after seeing the pastor in her dream. She confessed that her predicament led her into stealing to take care of her children.
This won’t be the first time the philanthropist, through his Foundation would be putting smiles on the faces of the masses.
Recently, thousand of families were feted with over N85million and foodstuffs by the Jeremiah Omoto Fufeyin Foundation.
Last year, nearly about N800 million was released by the cleric as palliative in support of the Federal Government and the masses to assuage the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
