“From Murtala Muhammed International Airport, Lagos, to Gatwick, London… what a beautiful journey to be living!

He added:
“Mummy, thank you for seeing something in me, believing in my potential and using your heart to open this door for me. Your support has moved this dream from a conversation to a real-life experience. Mummy, my God will bless and perfect all that concerns you in Jesus’ name. I will never take this for granted Ma.”
