Pastor Jerry Eze, founder of the New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations (NSPPD) and president of the Jerry Eze Foundation, has announced a major empowerment initiative aimed at supporting young entrepreneurs across Nigeria.
The initiative was unveiled on Thursday, January 15, 2026, when Eze disclosed the plan in a video message shared on his official platforms.
Under the programme, a total of $300,000 will be disbursed to 100 beneficiaries, with each selected entrepreneur expected to receive about $3,000 to either start or expand a business venture.
Eze said the initiative is targeted at young Nigerians operating in agriculture, technology and manufacturing, sectors he described as critical to economic growth, innovation and job creation.
He added that the selection and disbursement process will be handled by an independent international consulting firm, a measure intended to ensure transparency, accountability and fairness throughout the exercise.
