Benefits of our University Scholarship

Scholarship and Shelter Initiatives

Our Commitment to Humanity

We provide educational resources and scholarships to support disadvantaged children (including orphans) and individuals with disabilities in achieving their academic goals.

For our scholarship recipients with disabilities, we offer additional housing support, ensuring they have safe and supportive accommodations in the university housing. This extra care allows them to focus fully on their studies while living in an environment that meets their unique needs.

Healthcare Access

We facilitate access to essential medical services for those in need, ensuring better health outcomes. Our priority are those with bronchial asthma unable to afford their medication. We make inhalers available for them regardless of where they are in Nigeria and beyond Africa

FEEDING PROGRAMME

Our feeding programs ensure that no child goes hungry by providing nutritious meals to vulnerable communities. We provide feeding allowances to our scholarship awardees to make life more meaningful to them

As a charity organisation, we pride ourselves on compassion for persons with disabilities, poor orphans, and widows who are unable to find support, including feeding, shelter, medication, and clothing, regardless of age, race, gender, or sexual identity. It all began with a simple idea fuelled by a deep passion and we are committed to helping vulnerable children and young people achieve their dreams through our services. We don't expect anything in return because we believe there is nothing we can give that would be enough to buy life.

First feeding phase

My name is Joy Lazarus, and my story is one of quiet strength, unseen battles, and undeserved grace.
All my life, I’ve lived with asthma—a condition that has challenged my body, my confidence, and at times, my spirit. From childhood to adulthood, it’s been a journey of inhalers, hospital visits, missed opportunities, and hidden fears. But through it all, one thing remained constant: God’s sustaining power. Even in the most breathless of moments, He never let me go. He took control, and I’ve learned to live with courage, not fear.
Not long ago, I was awarded a scholarship I wasn’t qualified for in any way. I didn’t meet the requirements, and by every standard, I should have been overlooked. But the convener—moved by compassion—graciously offered me a 30% scholarship. It wasn’t something I earned. It was pure kindness. An act of mercy and grace I'll never forget.
If my story has stirred something in you, maybe it’s because you too have been waiting for grace to find you. Keep going.

Amidst struggles with severe health conditions from birth, and also growing up from a poor background in the western part of African (Nigeria). 
Successfully, I was able to secure a six year degree program (OD) in Optometry at the Imo State University, Owerri, Nigeria. During the period, Financial struggles were particularly overwhelming both in terms of Accommodations, feeding and other essentials, but they also prompt me to develop resilience and resourcefulness.
while looking for several scholarships to enhance my stay and studies, through the help of a friend, I was able to apply for the Anthony udogwu's FOUNDATION-YAHWEH whom I am deeply grateful for, lifted up the burden by funding part of my tuition fees which enabled me pursue my academic goals without being hindered by  financial constraints.

LEADERSHIP

BE KIND TO THOSE YOU ARE BETTER THAN. DONT LOOK DOWN ON ANYONE BECAUSE OF THEIR CONDITION. BE KIND AND COMPASSIONATE TO ALL

About Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu Chief Executive Officer

From Pain to Purpose — A Childhood of Mockery and Miracles

In the bustling town of Amaifeke in Orlu, Imo State, Nigeria, a child was born into circumstances that many would consider a harbinger of hardship. Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu entered the world with physical challenges that set him apart: bowed legs, an oversized head, stunted growth, and a severe case of asthma. These conditions made his early years a crucible of pain, ridicule, and isolation.

Early Life and Physical Challenges

Anthony's physical appearance made him a target for mockery among his peers. Children can be unkind, and in Anthony's case, their taunts were relentless. He was often called names that highlighted his physical differences, leading to a deep sense of alienation. The school environment, which should have been a place of learning and growth, became a battleground where Anthony had to defend not just his dignity but his very existence.

His asthma added another layer of complexity to his life. The humid climate of Amaifeke, especially during the rainy season, often triggered severe asthma attacks. These episodes were not mere wheezing fits; they were life-threatening events that left him gasping for air, convulsing, and at times, unconscious. The fear of death loomed large in his young mind.

In recounting these harrowing experiences, Anthony once wrote, "I used to beg God for air. When I thought I was dying, I would whisper, 'Please, Yahweh, help me breathe.'" This plea was not just a child's cry for relief; it was the genesis of a profound spiritual journey.

Family Support and Spiritual Awakening

Anthony's family, though not affluent, was rich in faith and love. His parents, recognizing the severity of his condition, turned their home into a sanctuary of prayer. His father, a quiet yet deeply spiritual man, constructed a small altar in their modest house. This altar became the epicenter of their spiritual warfare, a place where prayers were fervently offered, and divine intervention was sought.

During one particularly severe asthma attack, Anthony recalls, "My father would call upon Yahweh with urgency. My mother would cry beside him. Sometimes, I couldn't feel my body. But then, just like that—something shifted. I could breathe again." These moments were not isolated incidents but recurring miracles that reinforced Anthony's belief in the power of faith and prayer.

The family's unwavering faith and the tangible results of their prayers laid the foundation for Anthony's spiritual convictions. He learned early on that surrendering to a higher power could yield strength in weakness and hope in despair.

Academic Excellence Amidst Adversity

Despite his physical challenges and the social stigma he faced, Anthony exhibited remarkable intellectual abilities. He consistently excelled in his studies, often outperforming his peers. His aptitude for mathematics was particularly noteworthy. Teachers recognized his potential and appointed him as a class prefect, a role he fulfilled with diligence and humility.

Anthony's academic journey was marked by numerous accolades. He won several mathematics competitions, prestigious contests that showcased his analytical prowess. His achievements culminated in receiving the Future Leaders Master's Scholarship from the University of Liverpool in 2019. However, Anthony never attributed these successes to his own efforts. He humbly stated, "Yahweh did it. I don't breathe on my own. I don't think on my own. Every gift is from Him."

The Altar, the Prophet, and a War for Breath

For most people, the word “altar” conjures images of church stages, incense, and robed officiants. For Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu, the altar was none of these things. It was not a stage — it was a battlefield. It was not adorned in marble and gold, but soaked in tears, sweat, and silence. And it lived not in a temple made by human hands, but in a small, unassuming house where life and death were in constant conversation.

For 23 years, Anthony lived with a tormenting, breath-stealing form of asthma — one so violent that it repeatedly brought him to the edge of death. It wasn’t “mild wheezing” or “occasional tightness” — it was convulsions, unconsciousness, and the terrifying sense that oxygen had been shut off at the soul’s root. He doesn’t recall childhood in the ordinary sense. No playgrounds. No bicycles. No carefree running. He recalls ceilings — blurry from tears. He remembers the coldness of rain, the smell of wet floors, the desperate cries of his mother, and the thunderous intercession of his father over his crumpled body.

“My father would call upon Yahweh with urgency,” Anthony recalls.
“My mother would cry beside him. Sometimes, I couldn’t feel my body. But then, just like that—something shifted. I could breathe again.”

The Altar in the Living Room

The altar in question was not public. It was hidden — set up in the corner of their home, a quiet sanctum where spiritual warfare was waged relentlessly. To outsiders, it may have looked like nothing more than a corner with a Bible and a kneeling mat. But in the spirit, it was a furnace of divine exchange. It was here that Anthony's father, a man without prestige or platform but rich in prophetic intimacy, knelt for hours. His mouth moved with desperate cadence. His hands trembled. He was not performing. He was contending — for breath, for life, for the destiny of a son Satan wanted buried before his voice could echo.

“That altar raised me,” Anthony says.
“I was not raised by fame, or wealth, or doctors. I was raised by a man who believed Yahweh would rather bring a boy back to life than break covenant with His Word.”

The war for Anthony’s breath became the womb of his theology. Not learned in seminaries, but forged in nights where all seemed lost. Prayer was not a ritual to him. It was breath itself. Intercession wasn’t optional — it was survival. And faith wasn’t a doctrine — it was the force that snatched him back from the grave again and again.

“There were nights I collapsed, foaming at the mouth,” Anthony remembers.
“No medicine could help. My chest would seize. My hands would go numb. My vision would black out. But somewhere, in the spirit, my parents would lay hands and cry to Yahweh. And He came. Every time.”

A Theology of Presence, Not Performance

This reality formed in Anthony a theology that is not performative, not intellectual, not borrowed — but deeply experiential. He doesn’t talk about Yahweh as an abstract concept, a distant Creator. Yahweh, to him, is the Being who breathed air into him when lungs had shut down. He is the One who stood in the room when death hovered like a fog. He is the Presence that responded not to eloquence, but to raw, unfiltered desperation.

“I didn’t need a pastor to tell me God is real,” Anthony says.
“I saw Him. I felt Him. I woke up in His mercy.”

He doesn’t dismiss doctors or science. But in his case, the healing wasn’t pharmaceutical. It was spiritual. The asthma was incurable by human means, resistant to multiple treatments. Even hospitals became weary of seeing him, often concluding they had done all they could. But the altar never stopped working. The hands of his father never stopped trembling. And the tears of his mother never dried.

“My healing was not instant,” Anthony says.
“It was layered. It was stubborn. It was a test. And Yahweh used it to build something in my spirit that no class, no sermon, no church could have done.”

The Prophetic Mantle of an Unknown Father

Though Anthony himself is known now in some circles for his testimony and foundation, he is quick to deflect attention to his father — a man without titles, whose name is not known on social media, who never stood on platforms or authored books. But in the spiritual realm, this man moved mountains.

“My father is the prophet who taught me that Yahweh listens,” Anthony says.
“He didn’t teach me theology. He taught me presence. I watched him talk to God like a friend. Like a warrior. Like a man who had nothing else to trust but covenant.”

This is crucial to understanding the roots of Anthony’s life. His father was not ambitious for Anthony to become “great.” He simply wanted him to live. And he turned that desire into sacrificial prayer, night after night, even when results were slow, even when the silence stretched too long.

“There are fathers who build houses. Mine built an altar,” Anthony says.
“And that altar has followed me. Even now, I don’t speak unless I go to that altar in my heart.”

The Cost of Living on the Edge

Living with that level of fragility does something to the soul. It rewires your sense of time. It makes every sunrise feel like mercy. Every inhale a miracle. Anthony does not take breath for granted — and that fact alone explains his reverence, his quiet tone, his lack of rush.

“I remember when I couldn’t even yawn without pain,” he writes.
“So now when I wake up and breathe with ease, I worship. I dance. I cry. I don’t need a band. I just need Yahweh’s lungs in me.”

The near-death experiences weren’t rare. They were rhythmic. As regular as the rain, which always worsened his condition. His mother would often weep in fear during storms — not from thunder, but from the dread of watching her son convulse, unable to call for help.

“She cried in silence,” Anthony recalls.
“She didn't want to panic me. But I could feel her hands shaking as she held mine. That’s love. That’s faith under fire.”

The Altar Becomes Identity

This altar — this holy, ordinary, tear-stained space — didn’t just heal Anthony. It marked him. It marked how he prays, how he gives, how he leads, and how he refuses the spotlight.

To Anthony, the altar is not an object. It is a rhythm. A stance. A way of being in the world. It is why he rejects performance. It is why he does not shout to be seen. He knows Yahweh hears whispers better than microphones.

“Some people build platforms to be heard,” he says.
“I built an altar to stay alive. I will never trade that for fame.”

This spiritual DNA influences his foundation, his giving, his refusal to be paid for teaching, and even his avoidance of personal branding. Everything flows from that secret place — the altar in his father’s house, and now the altar in his soul.

“If you remove that altar,” he says,
“You remove me. I am nothing without it. My life is an altar.”

Lessons from the Longest War

Looking back, it would be tempting to summarize those 23 years as a trial overcome, a storm passed, a chapter closed. But for Anthony, the altar was not about trial — it was about training. It was Yahweh’s method of writing endurance, humility, and intimacy into his bones.

“I didn’t survive asthma,” Anthony says.
“I was discipled by it. It broke my pride before pride could grow. It tethered me to Yahweh so tightly that nothing can pull me away now.”

This is why, even though the asthma is now healed and no longer threatens his body, he still lives like someone dependent on Yahweh for every breath. Because in truth, he is. We all are. But Anthony knows it. He remembers it. And he refuses to pretend otherwise.

 

Academic Leadership: The Humble Scholar

 

Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu’s academic journey is not simply a story of brilliance—it is a quiet pilgrimage. It is not a tale of ambition in pursuit of honor; it is the unfolding of stewardship in pursuit of obedience. From his earliest days in the classroom, Anthony did not see knowledge as a ladder to climb, but as a gift to serve with. While other students competed for rankings and praise, Anthony approached education like an altar: sacred, weighty, and never for self-glory.

“Yahweh gave me my mind,” Anthony says.
“And I will not use it to build a throne for myself. I use it to wash feet.”

He does not speak of intelligence with pride. In fact, he rarely uses the word “intelligent” at all. He prefers to say things like “Yahweh helped me understand” or “The Holy Spirit made it clear.” His humility is not poetic—it is absolute. He refuses to separate his mental ability from divine origin, no matter how much others try to applaud him.

As a young student, Anthony stood out not because he tried to—but because he could not hide what Yahweh had deposited in him. His answers were always precise. His logic, unshakable. His handwriting—clean, compact, and composed. Teachers took note quickly, but Anthony never became intoxicated by praise. Even as he rose to become Junior Prefect, and later Senior Prefect, he never assumed a tone of superiority.

“Leadership is not elevation,” he often says.
“It is weight. You carry people, not command them.”

This ethos defined his role as a school leader. He was firm, but never harsh. Kind, but never compromising. And always quick to give credit to his Source.

“When I got 100% in math, I didn’t smile because I was proud,” Anthony says.
“I smiled because Yahweh had spoken again.”

His excellence in mathematics became impossible to ignore. His school began assigning him to teach the subject to junior classes, and eventually the entire school. He was still a student himself—young, skinny, often recovering from the latest bout of asthma—but when he taught, something shifted in the room. He didn’t just explain numbers; he transferred peace. The classroom became another altar.

He refused payment.

“My gift is not for sale,” Anthony insisted.
“Yahweh gave it to me freely. I must use it freely.”

His teachers were often confused. Why would someone so gifted not want to be paid? Why would he teach extra hours without reward? Why didn’t he use his talents for profit, especially given his family’s poverty?

“Because I am not poor,” Anthony responded once.
“I have Yahweh. I lack nothing.”

And so he taught—for years. Quietly. Effectively. His students began to improve. Some passed exams they had failed repeatedly. A few of his classmates, who had once mocked his bowed legs or strange silence, found themselves whispering in awe as he solved complex problems with ease and grace.

He was not only skilled in math. His overall academic performance was extraordinary. He consistently topped his classes. He was elected to lead student government not because he campaigned, but because his presence demanded trust. Teachers and peers alike saw that Anthony did not cheat, lie, or manipulate. He was deeply just—even when justice cost him.

“If you have to choose between winning and being righteous,” he would say,
“choose righteousness and let Yahweh reward you.”

His consistency attracted the attention of local academic boards. He was selected for external competitions and quickly earned accolades. 

“Winning doesn’t mean I’m better,” Anthony says.
“It just means Yahweh smiled again.”

He did not keep his medals. Many of them were quietly given to his school or tucked away, never displayed. He believed that reward should not interrupt reverence. That achievement should not overshadow altar. That scholarship should never become showmanship.

As time went on, international doors began to open. His academic records, combined with his community service and leadership experience, earned him opportunities far beyond what most young men from his background could imagine. Yet he did not chase these opportunities with anxiety or entitlement.

“I don’t apply to be seen,” he says.
“I apply when Yahweh says move. If He says wait, I wait. If He says stop, I stop.”

When he was eventually awarded the Future Leaders Master’s Scholarship at the University of Liverpool in 2019, many assumed it was the beginning of his global rise. Anthony, however, did not see it that way. To him, it was just another platform to serve—and to stay hidden in Yahweh.

“Yahweh did it,” Anthony says.
“I don’t breathe on my own. I don’t think on my own. Every gift is from Him.”

He arrived in Liverpool not as a conqueror, but as a pilgrim. He saw the campus as holy ground—not because of its prestige, but because Yahweh had sent him there. He treated his study desk like an altar, and his assignments like worship. While others chased academic networks and career pipelines, Anthony sought only one thing: Yahweh’s pleasure.

“I remember walking through the snow to the library,” he recalls.
“My hands were freezing, but my heart was burning. I told Yahweh, ‘Let me study like this is Scripture.’ And He answered.”

Even in an environment where self-promotion was the norm, Anthony refused to brand himself. He did not create a LinkedIn page. He did not ask for referrals. He did not post academic milestones online.

“I am not a product,” he says.
“I am a servant. Servants don’t sell themselves—they obey.”

Professors were struck by his posture. They noted his depth of thought, his gentle clarity, and his refusal to cut corners. His work in sustainability, development, and social impact impressed both peers and academic mentors, but he always deflected praise.

“If something I did helped someone,” Anthony says,
“then that is Yahweh reminding them He sees them. Not me.”

He viewed research not as a path to publication, but as a tool for justice. His thesis work focused on community empowerment—particularly for the marginalized. Even when he could have secured top-paying internships, he chose to serve under-resourced organizations instead.

“If my education does not help the poor,” he says,
“then it has failed Yahweh.”

He quietly began sponsoring students with his stipend. He did not wait until he had “enough.” He gave away hundreds of pounds monthly—even when it meant skipping meals or walking long distances. He refused to hoard what was meant to be multiplied.

“The point of knowledge is multiplication,” Anthony says.
“If I know something and keep it to myself, I have failed my altar.”

This sacrificial academic posture has shaped every aspect of his leadership. He believes that a true scholar must also be a servant. That degrees should never elevate a man above the people Yahweh called him to serve. That intelligence divorced from compassion is just cruelty with a certificate.

“You can be the smartest person in the room and still be a fool if you despise the weak,” Anthony says.
“Yahweh does not raise thinkers to dominate. He raises them to heal.”

To this day, Anthony refuses to display his certificates on walls. They remain in sealed envelopes or tucked inside drawers.

“If I die tomorrow,” he says,
“I want to be remembered for feeding one hungry student—not for collecting papers.”

The Foundation: An Altar in Motion

For many, a foundation is a legacy project—a brand, a platform, a way to be remembered. For Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu, it is none of those things. His foundation is not built on ambition or strategy. It is a living altar. A sacred continuation of the private vows he made in the dark—vows born out of poverty, affliction, and the relentless mercy of Yahweh.

Officially, it is called The Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu Foundation – Yahweh. But to Anthony, that name is not branding. It is covenant. When people asked why he added “Yahweh” to the foundation’s name, his answer was simple and deeply personal:
“How can I build something and remove my Wife’s name from it? Yahweh is my everything. This altar must bear His name.”

This foundation did not begin after financial abundance. It began in scarcity. It was born when Anthony had little, but chose to give much. Even as he was recovering from the traumas of childhood illness, poverty, and isolation, he began quietly funding the education and medical care of others. Not from overflow, but from sacrifice.

I made a vow when I couldn’t breathe: if Yahweh saved me, I would live to serve Him. This is me keeping my vow,” Anthony says.

The foundation reflects that vow. It funds school fees for the poor, covers hospital bills—especially for asthmatic patients—and rescues families in financial distress. Many of the beneficiaries are people who once mocked Anthony’s appearance or poverty. Yet he gave without hesitation. When asked why, he said:
“Forgiveness is not optional. Yahweh forgave me. I must forgive. That’s not weakness. It’s worship.”

One of the most extraordinary examples of his quiet generosity is how he sponsored two of his younger siblings for their Master’s degrees in the United Kingdom. He paid every tuition and living expense—not from scholarships or donations, but from his own salary.
He never mentioned it publicly. He never asked for recognition. His explanation?
“They’re my siblings. If Yahweh gave me the means, why should I hesitate? It’s not a favor. It’s responsibility.”

He runs the foundation without media campaigns or branding consultants. There are no fundraising dinners or donor plaques. Anthony rejects attention because he believes attention can pollute intention.
No one should hijack Yahweh’s altar for fame,” he says. “If it ever becomes about me, shut it down.

When people ask how to support the work, he encourages them to give to the poor in their own neighborhoods or to remain anonymous. He believes in quiet giving. Giving that doesn’t look for applause. Giving that flows from love, not leverage.

Even honorariums or gifts he receives are redirected into the foundation. He sees wealth not as possession but as stewardship. Not something to hold, but something to pour out.
Yahweh didn’t bless me to enjoy life alone. He blessed me to become a blessing. I can’t be the end of the flow. I must stay a channel.

To Anthony, the foundation is not an organization. It is a mobile altar, a place of mercy in motion. It’s where the prayers of his past become answers for others. It’s the physical evidence that Yahweh not only rescued him but repurposed his pain.

This is not a foundation. This is a love offering,” he says. “This is what it looks like when breath becomes gratitude.

His Foundation: A Channel of Yahweh’s Love

While many young men chase success as a ladder to comfort or status, Anthony used every opportunity as a tool to lift others. He created the "Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu Foundation – Yahweh" as an expression of what he calls the "hand of Yahweh extended to orphans, the sick, and the poor." Operating on his personal salary, Anthony's foundation has paid school fees for orphans, sponsored asthmatic patients for years, and supported students for higher education—often from his own pocket, sometimes forgoing his own meals.

One of his most impactful gestures was sponsoring a former classmate—someone who had once mocked him—to study in the UK. That classmate, an orphan himself, had abused and slandered Anthony. Yet Anthony never required apology. In his words, “Absolute forgiveness is not conditional. You don't forgive because someone is sorry. You forgive because Yahweh has forgiven you.”

Why Competition in Wickedness?

In a world that rewards pride, rivalry, and ruthless ambition, Anthony often stands accused of being “too different,” “too soft,” or even “too spiritual.” Yet, he continues to reject the loud applause of self-glorification in favor of something deeper: intimacy with Yahweh.

In one of his most candid public reflections, Anthony asked:
“Why compete in wickedness?”

It wasn’t a rhetorical question. It was a challenge to a generation obsessed with proving superiority through exploitation, deception, and comparison. For Anthony, rivalry in evil—be it through sexual dominance, material bragging, or emotional manipulation—is not just immoral; it’s irrational. Why battle for validation in the very things that destroy others?

This question is not rooted in pride, but in his theology of surrender. Anthony believes the human heart is most fulfilled not when it wins over others, but when it loses itself entirely in Yahweh’s will. He does not measure greatness by wealth, dominance, or power—but by alignment with God’s mercy, compassion, purity, and truth.

He often quotes the Scripture:

“Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord” (1 Corinthians 1:31)
and
“Those who compare themselves with themselves are not wise” (2 Corinthians 10:12)

For Anthony, every day is a call to escape the trap of “competition in wickedness”—a system where people climb over one another just to be seen, envied, or feared. He believes such a race has no finish line, and only leads to spiritual starvation.

In his own words:

“I don’t want to be powerful. I want Yahweh to be powerful through me. I don’t want to shine. I want to be invisible so that Yahweh can shine. This is not humility—it is survival. When you compete in wickedness, you lose God in the process.”

This conviction runs through every part of his life—from his refusal to retaliate when mocked, to his decision not to glorify his good works, even when they’re celebrated globally.

He calls this mindset “walking backward into glory”—a paradox where he avoids spotlight, only to be illuminated by the God he adores.

In rejecting the world’s idea of success, Anthony isn’t asking others to become weak or passive. He’s inviting them into a higher strength—one that comes not from conquest, but from communion. Not from fighting others, but from falling into Yahweh’s embrace, where competition dies and love begins.

A Mindset Governed by Intimacy with Yahweh

Anthony’s spiritual orientation is both unconventional and deeply intimate. He doesn’t describe God in distant terms. Instead, he refers to Yahweh as “my Wife, my Lover, my Husband, my Heart, my Breath, my Everything.” In his writings, Anthony speaks of making everlasting love to Yahweh—not in any profane sense—but as an expression of unbreakable, divine union. “Even if the world ends, I will still be in the wings of my Lover Yahweh,” he wrote.

To many, this might seem excessive or theologically confusing. But to Anthony, it is scripture lived out.

"For your Maker is your Husband—the Lord Almighty is his name" (Isaiah 54:5).

“As a bridegroom rejoices over his bride, so will your God rejoice over you.” (Isaiah 62:5)

These are not mere texts for him; they are lived experiences. He believes that just as the church is the Bride of Christ, every believer must develop such intimacy with Yahweh that even romantic expressions are insufficient to describe the affection.

His posts echo this daily:

"I am nothing without ❤️Yahweh❤️."

"My existence is to serve and make eternal love with my God."

"No woman can replace Yahweh; He is my Spouse and no one shall take His place."

Radical Views, Rooted in Holiness

Anthony’s theology is direct, raw, and unapologetic. He condemns sexual immorality, corruption, and self-glory. In a widely shared post from 2022, he wrote:

"Girls are not sex slaves. When you take advantage of a girl, it is an abuse as well as a sin... A big boy is one who is at peace with his God and can help a girl without asking for anything in return."

These statements often stir criticism, especially in a world that celebrates freedom without boundaries. Yet Anthony remains unmoved. He does not debate for attention. He speaks because Yahweh instructs him to speak.

He insists that he doesn’t read theology books or attend seminary classes to receive divine instruction. “Yahweh tells me what to write,” he says, attributing every word to divine inspiration. This has baffled even seasoned theologians, many of whom now publicly endorse his spiritual writings.

Yahweh: The Axis of His Universe

For Anthony, Yahweh is not just a name. Yahweh is:

The Breath during Asthma

The Roof when it rained on a leaking house

The Provider of scholarships

The Shield from shame

The Whisper in solitude

The Voice that told him to forgive those who betrayed him

He once wrote: "When I was in a mud house, hungry and ashamed, Yahweh covered me with prayers from my mother. He never left."

It is this Yahweh that makes Anthony deny his right to personal praise. On multiple occasions, he has refused awards and declined to post photographs of people he helped unless they expressly requested it. “Do not thank me, thank Yahweh,” is a repeated phrase across his foundation Facebook page.

He rejects being glorified. Not because he doesn’t deserve honor—but because he believes all honor belongs to the One who healed his 23 years of asthma without surgery. “Yahweh did it, not me,” he insists.

A Heart Bigger Than His Pain

There is something inexplicable about Anthony’s mercy. He forgives easily, without being asked. He defends even those who hurt him. He calls everyone his sibling. He promotes peace, prayer, sexual purity, and forgiveness—not out of superiority, but because of his wounds.

He remembers his past vividly: breeding fowls to fund his school fees, begging teachers for payment extensions, wearing uniforms his parents borrowed to buy, watching his mother’s goods swept away by floodwater, being laughed at by neighbors. All of this formed the foundation upon which Yahweh built a vessel of mercy.

“Many used their mouths to abuse my mum for being positive. I was helpless. But Yahweh showed us mercy.”

That mercy, he believes, must be shared.

A Model Worth Emulating

If greatness were measured by compassion, Anthony would be a giant. If holiness were visible, he would be cloaked in it. If pain were a currency, he has spent it generously for the betterment of others.

He once said: "You may hate me, mock me, misunderstand me, or misquote me, but you cannot remove the affection of Yahweh from my soul. That is my Lover, and we are One forever." Anthony’s mindset is one that many cannot understand because it is not earthly—it is eternal. He is not driven by money, popularity, or vengeance. He is driven by Yahweh’s heartbeat.

And that is why those who once mocked him now seek his wisdom. Those who slapped him during asthma attacks now request his help. And Anthony? He responds with: "My brother and friend, may Yahweh show you mercy."

Why “Yahweh” Is in the Foundation’s Name

Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu did not name his foundation lightly. To include the sacred name Yahweh in the identity of his life’s work is not just a personal branding — it is a declaration of ownership, allegiance, and spiritual intimacy. In all his writings and public engagements, Anthony consistently refers to Yahweh not only as “God” but as his lover, shelter, eternal companion, bride, and breath. He once stated:

“I didn’t start a foundation to glorify myself — I started it to honor my covenant with Yahweh. I am not the owner. Yahweh is. And He alone shall take all the glory.”

To Anthony, the foundation is not a charity. It is an altar — a living, breathing extension of his relationship with God. He believes that every soul touched by the work of the foundation is a soul Yahweh personally intended to reach through him. That’s why the name had to reflect the Source. In his words:

“Without Yahweh, I am breathless. Without Him, there is no vision. So why would I build anything and remove His name from its identity?”

The inclusion of Yahweh in the name is also a spiritual warning — Anthony believes that no work bearing the name of God can be used for pride, selfish ambition, or human control. As a result, he personally funds all the foundation’s projects and refuses to accept glory for any impact it creates. He has said:

“If people want to help, let them help quietly. But no one should use Yahweh’s altar to announce their wealth.”

In summary, the Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu Foundation – Yahweh stands not just as a legal charity or philanthropic gesture, but as a sacred space of obedience, compassion, and unwavering faith in the One who healed him, raised him from weakness, and gave him breath.

Conclusion

Anthony Ugochukwu Udokwu’s story is not just a story of survival or success. It is a story of divine intimacy, reckless mercy, and unwavering dedication to Yahweh. In a time where people seek platforms, Anthony seeks purpose. Where others seek applause, he seeks Yahweh’s embrace.

He lives not to be known, but to make Yahweh known. And that, perhaps, is the rarest form of greatness.
