The founder of Streams of Joy International, Pastor Jerry Eze, has emerged as Nigeria’s highest YouTube earner.
This was announced by a data curation platform that provides rankings for YouTube channels globally, Playboard.
The report said Eze, who is the convener of the popular New Season Prophetic Prayers and Declarations, NSPPD, online prayer platform with over 2.12 million subscribers and over one million views daily, earns more than N7 million every day.
Mr Eze, a former Communications Specialist with The World Bank, emerged as the highest YouTuber because he is the most ‘Super Chatted’ content creator in Nigeria.
Super Chat, is a YouTube paid feature that highlights viewers’ messages at the top of a chat for a specified duration.
The longer the message (Super Chat) is pinned, the higher the cost and earnings for the YouTuber, in this case, Eze gets 70 per cent of the money earned from Super Chats.
Playboard data revealed that the Abia-born’s total revenue, primarily live-streamed on his YouTube page amounts to N7.81 billion (money made during a specific period.)
