The Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has officially cleared Pastor Jerry Eze of all allegations following a six-month investigation into suspected money laundering probe.
The probe, which began late last year, was initiated after concerns were raised over financial transactions linked to the popular cleric and founder of Streams of Joy International.
The EFCC confirmed that the investigation involved a thorough review of financial records, bank transactions, and related documentation.

In a statement released on Thursday, Olukoyede disclosed that no evidence of financial misconduct or money laundering was found against Pastor Eze. According to him, the investigation was conducted with professionalism and in line with due process, ensuring that all claims were carefully examined.
“The Commission has concluded its investigation into the allegations involving Pastor Jerry Eze. After an extensive review, we found no proof to substantiate the claims of money laundering or financial impropriety,” the statement read.
Pastor Eze, known for his widely followed New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations (NSPPD), had earlier denied any wrongdoing and expressed confidence that the truth would prevail.
His legal team also maintained that the allegations were baseless and damaging to his reputation.
Reacting to the development, supporters and members of his ministry have welcomed the EFCC’s decision, describing it as a vindication of the pastor’s integrity.
Many took to social media to express relief and renewed trust in his leadership.
