According to the EFCC, Onyedikachukwu received royalties from Mercy&#8217;s digital platforms and events but failed to declare or remit her fair share.<\/p>\n<p>The commission&#8217;s efforts to arrest Onyedikachukwu have been unsuccessful, prompting the request for an arrest warrant.<\/p>\n<p>In other news, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2025\/01\/03\/mercy-chinwo-and-husband-donate-food-clothing-cash-in-rivers\/\">Mercy Chinwo\u00a0and her husband, Pastor Blessed Uzochikwa, brought festive joy to the Rumudara community in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, with a generous donation on December 30, 2024.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Through their Mercy Is Blessed Foundation, an outreach arm of Mercy Chinwo\u2019s Grace and Truth Nation (GNT) Music Label, the couple distributed bags of rice, garri, cartons of tomato paste, and tubers of yams.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to these essential\u00a0food items, they also provided cash gifts and clothing materials to support the community\u2019s elderly, single mothers, and disadvantaged residents.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking about the initiative, Pastor Blessed emphasized the deep connection between giving and love, drawing inspiration from the Bible\u2019s John 3:16.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>The central goal of Christ is love, and He is the reason for the season. According to John 3:16, giving is the DNA of love. It says, \u2018For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life,\u2019\u201d<\/em>\u00a0Pastor Blessed said.<\/p>\n<p>He further explained that the <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.withinnigeria.com\/entertainment\/2025\/01\/03\/mercy-chinwo-and-husband-donate-food-clothing-cash-in-rivers\/\">foundation\u2019s mission goes beyond addressing immediate needs.<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201c<em>Love is about giving, and that is why the Mercy Is Blessed Foundation has made it a central goal to share the love of Jesus Christ with people who don\u2019t know where their next meal will come from.
