She expressed appreciation to all those who played a crucial role in the early stages of the programme.

According to her, looking at how far she has come, it could only be the doing of the Lord, adding that it was at that point of her gratitude that God dropped her new song with Mercy Chinwo in her spirit.

For about a decade, Awake Expe­rience has been a blessing to many believers, leaving them with testimo­nies and breaking the yoke for them.
