I documented my journey with God and His call upon my life to serve in ministry beginning from Eruwa. I sent it to my dear pastor as I was leaving Akwa-Ibom State after my national youth service. Pastor prayed for me as I went to bid him farewell. He said [...]
Read MoreWe were to host a meeting, and we had a list of seven speakers. It was to be a great meeting. Some were travelling from great distances. They were accomplished people in their fields. However, there was a challenge—as the meeting day got closer, there was not enough money to [...]

I was at a conference for ministers of the Gospel. One of the panellists was asked a question about how he had been able to sustain a life of discipline in Ministry. His answer has not left me. He said, “I have a Pastor”. You will not understand the weight of what was said until you think about the fact […]
Right after the meeting, the family walked up to me and said, “Pastor, the word you gave to us is very accurate”. As we interacted, I got to know that the wife had made up her mind to pack her load that season and leave her matrimonial home. God sent a word that brought peace to the storm. But another […]
I had some weird behaviour as a teenager. I was lazy. My school uniform gets washed a day before or very early on the day I need it. I would spread it on the standing fan so it can get dry quite fast. That is not as weird as what I do with lunch bowls. We used those tall grey […]
While Dad was still lecturing actively, he sent home one of his departmental assistants to pick up a new shirt for him. I was the one at home. I asked the assistant what happened to the shirt he wore. He told me that ink splashed on it. Later in the day when I heard the sound of Dad’s car, I […]
I was in my second year in the University as a law undergraduate. We had a course that was not too interesting – Nigeria Legal System. I tried my best to review that course daily. When we were to have our first test, some of my colleagues panicked. I did also. I had to choose between fellowship or studying for […]
Some time ago, I sat in the library as I spoke to a dear brother in the faith. I told him, “The whole matter concludes that ‘I am fighting a generational war that I must win’”. It was not a battle with demons or the devil. It was a battle for strength and inner will to stay on course in […]
I was sitting with an influential man and we were having a conversation. He made a profound statement while we spoke. He said, “No matter how much kingmakers like a man, once he is sick in one form or the other, it would be hard to make such sit on the throne. They will love him genuinely but his sickness […]
On the 4th of January, 1990, my mum was certified dead on a surgical table just before the procedure started (I have shared this story before but I desire someone’s faith to be strengthened today. Mum has also written a personal memoir about that day but I want to share a bit from lessons on faith that I picked from […]
He had spent some of his teenage years living in a Pastor’s house. He felt he was being choked. Once he got the freedom to step out to school, he slid into sex and drugs. He was getting into gambling. He had seen one of the popular foreign musicians as a role model. He wanted to look like him no […]
I made friends with some of my classmates at the State University. I had settled in fast. I began to fall in love with some of the music of that season. I would borrow music discs from another colleague to listen to at intervals. One day, I borrowed some music discs as usual. When I got home, I began to […]
