Speaking to journalists during a press conference organised yesterday in respect of the event, the Chairman, Unusual Praise Organising Committee, Dr. Okey Nwuke, noted that the event is scheduled to begin from 5p.m. till 7a.m. the next day on December 15, 2023, at the Tafa Balogun Square (TBS) located in Ikoyi area of Lagos State.

He also revealed that this year’s event would see grants between N300,000 and N1.5 million given to at least 100 entrepreneurs deemed qualified for the grants respectively.

According to him, “The important thing around Unusual Praise is that it’s not just about evangelism, it’s also about empowerment.

“You can’t evangelise an empty stomach or a hungry man. So, as we have things that take care of the spiritual aspect of life put in place, we also have an empowerment programme to take care of the physical.

“There would be a whole lot of praise from all believers, economic empowerment and mentorship. We call the empowerment program seed funding. 

“We had the event in Onitsha a couple of weeks ago, and we will be having that of Lagos on December 15. 

“For the grant beneficiaries, we will be selecting 100 people in total. And they will each be getting between N300,000 to N1.5 million respectively. 

“And it is not just about the money we will be giving them. It’s about the training we give them, the mentorship, as its our desire that over time, these 100 people are then one’s that will come and sustain the Unusual Entrepreneurship.

“That is based on the successes they must have encountered in their businesses, they will willingly come and give back.”

Speaking on the artists slated to perform at the event, Nwuke said, “Aside from the A-list artists who we will also be giving the Unusual Praise platform to express their God given talents.

“This is one of the beauty of Unusual Praise, we keep grooming Artists, as we believe that someday, the upcoming will also become an A-list artists that we have, such as M-Rebelation, Beejay Sax, Ada Jesus, David G, Nathaniel Bassey, Sinach, Dare Justify, Chioma Jesua, among others, we also have on the side upcoming artist.”

Speaking further, he said, “One of the major essences of Unusual Praise is also to win more souls to Christ. We are glad to have won a lot of souls to Christ in the previous editions, and it’s our hope that we would even win more souls to Christ in this year’s edition. 

“I would also like to emphasise that entry into the venue for the event is free. Nobody is going to charge anyone attending one kobo to have access to the venue. It’s totally free.

“Also, security is fully guaranteed. The whole security architecture of Lagos State has been deployed, and we also just set up a new committee, which is the protocol committee that will aid the job of the security, to make everyone have a seamless experience.”
