heard about her husband.
She said she did not know he was a
criminal because he presented himself as a
God fearing man who always led the family
in prayer.
“I feel very bad because I did not know if
he was doing all these or not. Even if he
was into all these, why did he not stop
because of me and his children? All the time
when we pray, he used to promise God that
he would tell Him his story later in life,” she
said.
