One million copies of the Holy Bible are set to be distributed across Nigeria in honour of Barrister Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as Nigerians face acute food insecurity.
The initiative was unveiled during a thanksgiving service held on Sunday at the National Christian Centre, Abuja. The event was organised by friends of Seyi Tinubu and coordinated by Hon. Belusochukwu Enwere, National Chairman of the Youth Wing of the Christian Association of Nigeria (YOWICAN).
According to the organisers, the Bibles will be distributed through churches and community groups nationwide to promote moral renewal, ethical leadership, and civic responsibility among Nigerian youths.
Hon. Enwere explained that the project was conceived as a spiritual and moral intervention rather than a personal celebration.
“The One Million Bible Project is a gift to the body of Christ and a seed for moral transformation. Through this effort, we hope to restore integrity, compassion, and love for humanity among young Nigerians,” he said.
The thanksgiving service, which was simultaneously observed in about 40 churches across the country, featured prayers and sermons focused on national renewal.

Rev. Ini Ukpuho, Chaplain of the National Christian Centre, officiated the service and led special prayers for the Tinubu family and the nation. Clergymen from various denominations described the initiative as timely and significant, especially amid growing concerns over the erosion of moral values in society.
In a message read on his behalf, Seyi Tinubu expressed gratitude to the organisers, stressing that faith and moral education remain essential for responsible citizenship and national development.
The first set of Bibles, earmarked for distribution to churches, schools, and youth ministries nationwide in the coming weeks, was presented during the service.
According to recent data, over 31 million Nigerians were facing acute food insecurity as of July 2025, with projections indicating a rise to 33 million by October 2025.
