One million copies of the Holy Bible are to be distributed across Nigeria in honour of Barrister Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as part of activities marking his birthday.
The initiative was announced during a Thanksgiving service held on Sunday at the National Christian Centre, Abuja.
The event, 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), aims to promote moral renewal and ethical leadership among Nigerian youths.
According to the organisers, the Bibles will be shared through churches, schools, and community groups across the country to inspire integrity, compassion, and civic responsibility.
Hon. Enwere explained that the project was conceived not merely as a personal celebration but as a contribution to moral transformation in the nation.
‘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 also held simultaneously in about 40 churches nationwide, featured prayers and messages 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 country. Clergymen from various denominations described the initiative as timely, coming at a period of moral decline in society.
In a message read on his behalf, Seyi Tinubu expressed gratitude to the organisers, noting that faith and moral education remain vital to responsible citizenship and national development.
The first batch of Bibles, to be distributed through churches, schools, and youth ministries in the coming weeks, was presented during the service.
