Per the outline of the scheme, each of the 400 selected beneficiaries will first receive initial cash of GH¢10,000, with the remaining amount to be disbursed after an audit of the usage of the initial capital.
Prophet Nelson-Eshun said this would help avoid wastage and ensure the beneficiaries put the monies to good use.
"We're giving you the first one (GH¢10,000). We'll come and look at what you're doing. We're first giving GH¢10,000 cedis now. After two or three months, when we come and do our checks, we'll add the remaining GH¢20,000.''
"If we do our checks and we're not okay, we won't give you," ElBernard said while presenting the first 10 beneficiaries with cheques of GH¢10,000,'' he said.
He urged the beneficiaries to make the best of the facility to help the programme achieve its objectives.
In a WhatsApp conversation with YEN.com.gh, Ghanaian media personality Paa Kwesi Schandorf, who claimed church membership, said:
''I was highly delighted when I chanced on the video. Over the years, the church has been widely criticised for neglecting the physical welfare of its members. Therefore, the intervention came off as timely, impactful and genuinely refreshing.
''The gesture goes a long way to make a statement that the church is committed to its members' spiritual needs and to making SRM an exemplary church within the larger Christian community,'' he told YEN.com.gh.

I was in Ghana looking to get my head above the waters. All the men of God were billing me. Only prophet Elbernard helped me and asked for nothing. Those of you talking rubbish should be careful.
