Sir, just as a house that was built on a faulty foundation will definitely collapse.

“All through my secondary school days, I am just a church goer without genuine salvation and the fear of God, as a result of this, I got my WAEC result through examination malpractice.

“By the grace of God, now, I have encountered the limelight of the gospel of Jesus Christ which called for repentance and restitution.
