Under the auspices of ‘Dr D.K. Olukoya’s Academic Award of Excellence’, this year’s award event, attracted highest number of beneficiaries since its inception in 2010.
Speaking at the event, Olukoya said, “We are encouraging them to work hard, I believe MFM has the largest number of first-class graduates in Nigeria.
“In 2011, the Lord established a programme in MFM to encourage the youth. At the programme, I said to anybody who is a member of MFM and makes a first class, I will give them a car.
“Nineteen students made a first class that year, and I have given them cars, I did so at the second edition. But by the third edition, the programme galvanized MFM students to start working hard. We had 77 of them, and I couldn’t afford to give them 77 cars. I started giving money.
“The next year, it became 106. By the fifth edition in 2019, we had 329, and we gave them ₦250,000 each, and today, by the sixth edition, we have 492 graduates.”
