…As UMI sustains education, welfare support scheme
As part of activities marking the birthday of its General Overseer, Apostle Dr Mrs Uwem Abasiodu, Uwem Ministries International (UMI) has disbursed N2 million bursary and empowerment support to members, reinforcing its commitment to education and welfare.
The latest phase of the intervention was rolled out during a Royal Birthday Fellowship held on April 23, 2026, at the ministry headquarters along Aka Obot Idim Road, Uyo.
The scheme, which began in October 2025, targets students and small scale entrepreneurs within the church, and is being implemented in phases to accommodate more beneficiaries.

In the current phase, priority was given to student members, particularly those serving in the choir. Beneficiaries include Dayeabasi Nimmong Ibanga, Utibe David Friday, Esther Idorenyin Mfon, Uwakmfon Idorenyin, Enomfon Akpan, Faith Alphonsus and Miguel Nse.
Speaking at the fellowship, Apostle Uwem Abasiodu urged members to remain patient and supportive of one another, assuring that the programme would be sustained.
“This empowerment will get to everyone who has made sacrifices in the church. Be patient and do not be envious. Your time will surely come,” she said.
The event also featured the cutting of the birthday cake, praise and worship, a special presentation by the UMI Voices, and an exhortation by Bishop Elisha Nelson.
The ministry said the bursary and empowerment scheme will continue in phases as part of its broader effort to support members and strengthen livelihoods.
