Streams of Joy International, the church founded by Pastor Jerry Eze, has responded to a claim by a woman identified as Sandra Okpara, who said she mistakenly transferred N1,640,200 while trying to send money to her Zenith Bank account.
In a statement, the church said it only became aware of the matter through the video in which Okpara spoke about the alleged erroneous transfer.
He wrote:
“We have become aware of this claim through the video circulating online. However, prior to its publication, we had not received any call, email, direct message or formal complaint from the individual.”
The woman had earlier explained in the video that she made the transfer after participating in a church service and making an offering. According to her, she later intended to move money into her Zenith Bank account to pay for a voucher but accidentally sent N1,640,200 instead.
She said:
“My name is Sandra Okpara. I am a single mom of two and I believe in God and I’ve always been praying for God on NSPPD. I did my service this morning, I did my communion and I did my transfer for offering. Two or three hours later I wanted send money to my Zenith account for a voucher. I did an erroneous transfer of N1,640,200. I’m doing this video because I cannot lie. If you know anyone that works at Streams of Joy International..That money is not for me, it’s for people and those people are calling me out.”
The church’s response was that the woman had not made any direct complaint to them before making the video public.
