“I sat for the JAMB Exam 6 times before I got admission to read law in 1988. In the year 1986, I was so depressed and life was becoming meaningless to me.
“I felt there was no need anymore to continue trying. In the process of depressions, I contemplated ending my life because it was filled with failure, sorrow, frustrations, and disappointment There was a day that I decided to bid the world farewell but God intervened.
“However, things were not changing as I expected. Suicide thoughts came over me and I was scheming on how I will carry it out.
“It was in the process of this that a friend of mine invited me to attend a Thursday revival program organized by Deeper Life Bible Church at Gbagada, Lagos. I honored the invitation, it was in May 1986.

“Pastor Kumuyi ministered. I was shocked when during the message, he said ‘you will not die ‘, this I believe he said prophetically.
“I believed the word and accepted Christ as my Lord and personal Saviour. This marked the era of a new beginning in my life.
“Same The same I got admission to the College of Education and later in 1988, I got admission to read law at Lagos State University. The message of the Pastor saved my life.
“Today I give thanks to God for what He is doing in my life. Pastor Kumuyi has been my Mentor and my Pastor.
“I want to encourage our youths not to give up. Suicide is not the solution. I give thanks to God that God has sustained my pastor and Mentor for these 80 years, glory be to God.”
