“I WAS TALKING ABOUT JESUS AND THEY TRIED TO SHUT ME DOWN.

I AM HUNDRED PERCENT SURE THAT IF I WAS TALKING ABOUT HIS EXCELLENCY GOVERNOR BABAJIDE SANWO- OLU I WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN CUT OFF.

I GENUINELY HAVE NO BAD BLOOD TOWARDS THE HEADIES, RATHER, I AM GRATEFUL THEY PUT MY MIC BACK ON TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL. JESUS IS KING. HE IS BEFORE NOW AND FOREVER. – INDUSTRY MACHINE.”
